This expansion board allows you to add an RS485 and a CAN interface to a Raspberry Pi Pico. The board also offers the option of operating it either via a standard USB-C connection with 5 V or via a screw terminal that accepts a voltage of 6 to 12 V. The voltage applied to the screw terminal is reduced to 5 V by a voltage converter integrated on the board. Features Power can be supplied via a USB-C connection with 5 V or via a screw terminal that draws between 6 and 12 V. In the latter case, a built-in voltage converter reduces the voltage to 5 V. To increase the versatility and range of functions, the connection pins of the Raspberry Pi Pico have been routed to the outside. The expansion board also offers the option of communication via the RS485 and CAN interfaces.

A low-power, open source, 2.7-inch IoT display powered by an ESP32-S2 module and featuring SHARP's Memory-in-Pixel (MiP) screen technology The Newt is a battery-powered, always-on, wall-mountable display that can go online to retrieve weather, calendars, sports scores, to-do lists, quotes…really anything on the Internet! It is powered by an ESP32-S2 microcontroller that you can program with Arduino, CircuitPython, MicroPython, or ESP-IDF. It's perfect for makers: Sharp’s Memory-in-Pixel (MiP) technology avoids the slow refresh times associated with E-Ink displays A real-time clock (RTC) was added to support timers and alarms The Newt was designed with battery operation in mind; every component on the board was chosen for its ability to operate at low power. Newt was designed to operate 'untethered,' which means it can be mounted in places where a power cord would be inconvenient, for example a wall, refrigerator, mirror, or dry-erase board. With the optional stand, desks, shelves, and nightstands are also good options. Newt is open source, and all design files and libraries are available for review, use, and modification. However, doing that is not required. Each Newt is delivered with working code with the following features: Current weather details Hourly and daily weather forecast Alarm Timer Inspirational quotes Air-quality forecast Habit calendar Pomodoro timer Oblique Strategy cards Only following the Wi-Fi provisioning instructions is needed to get started.

The DiP-Pi Power Master is an Advanced Powering System with embedded sensors interfaces that cover most of possible needs for application based on Raspberry Pi Pico. It can supply the system with up to 1.5 A @ 4.8 V delivered from 6-18 VDC on various powering schemes like Cars, Industrial plant etc., additionally to original micro-USB of the Raspberry Pi Pico. It supports LiPo or Li-Ion Battery with Automatic Charger as also automatic switching from cable powering to battery powering or reverse (UPS functionality) when cable powering lost. Extended Powering Source (EPR) is protected with PPTC Resettable fuse, Reverse Polarity, as also ESD. The DiP-Pi Power Master contains Raspberry Pi Pico embedded RESET button as also ON/OFF Slide Switch that is acting on all powering sources (USB, EPR or Battery). User can monitor (via Raspberry Pi Pico A/D pins) battery level and EPR Level with PICO’s A/D converters. Both A/D inputs are bridged with 0402 resistors (0 OHM) therefore if for any reason user needs to use those Pico pins for their own application can be easy removed. The charger is automatically charging connected battery (if used) but in addition user can switch charger ON/OFF if their application needs it. DiP-Pi Power Master can be used for cable powered systems, but also for pure Battery Powered System with ON/OFF. Each powering source status is indicated by separate informative LEDs (VBUS, VSYS, VEPR, CHGR, V3V3). User can use any capacity of LiPo or Li-Ion type; however, must take care to use PCB protected batteries with max discharge current allowed of 2 A. The embedded battery charger is set to charge battery with 240 mA current. This current is set by resistor so if user need more/less can himself to change it. In Addition to all above features DiP-Pi Power Master is equipped with embedded 1-wire and DHT11/22 sensors interfaces. Combination of the extended powering, battery, and sensors interfaces make the DiP-Pi Power Master ideal for applications like data logger, plants monitoring, refrigerators monitoring etc. DiP-Pi Power Master is supported with plenty of ready to use examples written in Micro Python or C/C++.

The Power Delivery Board uses a standalone controller to negotiate with the power adapters and switch to a higher voltage other than just 5V. This uses the same power adapter for different projects rather than relying on multiple power adapters to provide different output; it can deliver the board as part of SparkFun’s Qwiic connect system, so you won’t have to do any soldering to figure out how things are oriented. The SparkFun Power Delivery Board takes advantage of the power delivery standard using a standalone controller from STMicroelectronics, the STUSB4500. The STUSB4500 is a USB power delivery controller that addresses sink devices. It implements a proprietary algorithm to negotiate a power delivery contract with a source (i.e. a power delivery wall wart or power adapter) without the need for an external microcontroller. However, you will need a microcontroller to configure the board. PDO profiles are configured in an integrated non-volatile memory. The controller does all the heavy lifting of power negotiation and provides an easy way to configure over I²C. To configure the board, you will need an I²C bus. The Qwiic system makes it easy to connect the Power Delivery board to a microcontroller. Depending on your application, you can also connect to the I²C bus via the plated through SDA and SCL holes. Features Input and output voltage range of 5-20V Output current up to 5A Three configurable power delivery profiles Auto-run Type-C™ and USB PD sink controller Certified USB Type-C™ rev 1.2 and USB PD rev 2.0 (TID #1000133) Integrated VBUS voltage monitoring Integrated VBUS switch gate drivers (PMOS)

The Motorino board is an extension-board to control and use up to 16 PWM-controlled 5V-Servo-motors. The included clock generator ensures a very precise PWM signal and a very precise positioning. The board has 2 inputs for voltage from 4.8 V to 6 V which can be used for up to 11 A. With this input, a perfect power supply is always guaranteed and even bigger projects are no problem. The supply runs directly over the Motorino which provides a connection for voltage, ground and control. With the build in capacitor, the voltage is buffered which prevents a sudden voltage-drop at a high load. But there is also the possibility to connect another capacitor. The control and the programing can be done, as usual, with the Arduino. Manuals and code examples allows a quick introduction for beginners. Special features 16 Channels, own clock generator Input 1 Coaxial power connector 5.5 / 2.1 mm, 4.8-6 V / 5 A max Input 2 Screw-terminal, 4.8-6 V / 6 A max Communication 16 x PWM Compatible with Arduino Uno, Mega and may more microcontroller with Arduino compatible pinout Dimensions 69 x 24 x 56 mm Scope of supply Board, Manual, Retail package

At the core of this module is ESP32-S2, an Xtensa® 32-bit LX7 CPU that operates at up to 240 MHz. The chip has a low-power co-processor that can be used instead of the CPU to save power while performing tasks that do not require much computing power, such as monitoring of peripherals. ESP32-S2 integrates a rich set of peripherals, ranging from SPI, I²S, UART, I²C, LED PWM, TWAITM, LCD, Camera interface, ADC, DAC, touch sensor, temperature sensor, as well as up to 43 GPIOs. It also includes a full-speed USB On-The-Go (OTG) interface to enable USB communication.FeaturesMCU ESP32-S2 embedded, Xtensa® single-core 32-bit LX7 microprocessor, up to 240 MHz 128 KB ROM 320 KB SRAM 16 KB SRAM in RTC Wi­Fi 802.11 b/g/n Bit rate: 802.11n up to 150 Mbps A-MPDU and A-MSDU aggregation 0.4 µs guard interval support Center frequency range of operating channel: 2412 ~ 2484 MHz Hardware Interfaces: GPIO, SPI, LCD, UART, I²C, I²S, Camera interface, IR, pulse counter, LED PWM, TWAI (compatible with ISO 11898-1), USB OTG 1.1, ADC, DAC, touch sensor, temperature sensor 40 MHz crystal oscillator 4 MB SPI flash Operating voltage/Power supply: 3.0 ~ 3.6 V Operating temperature range: –40 ~ 85 °C Dimensions: 18 × 31 × 3.3 mm Applications Generic Low-power IoT Sensor Hub Generic Low-power IoT Data Loggers Cameras for Video Streaming Over-the-top (OTT) Devices USB Devices Speech Recognition Image Recognition Mesh Network Home Automation Smart Home Control Panel Smart Building Industrial Automation Smart Agriculture Audio Applications Health Care Applications Wi-Fi-enabled Toys Wearable Electronics Retail & Catering Applications Smart POS Machines
