You can program the nRF52840 chip directly to take full advantage of the Cortex-M4 processor, and then calling into the Nordic SoftDevice radio stack when you need to communicate over BLE. Since the underlying API and peripherals are the same for the '832 and '840, you can supercharge your older nRF52832 projects with the same exact code, with a single recompile! CircuitPython works best with disk drive access, and this is the only BLE-plus-USB-native chip that has the memory to handle running a little Python interpreter. The massive RAM and speedy Cortex M4F chip make this a good match. Peripherals Plenty of GPIO, analog inputs, PWM, timers, etc. Best of all, it's got that native USB! Finally, no need for a separate USB serial chip like CP2104 or FT232. Serial is handled as a USB CDC descriptor, and the chip can act like a keyboard, mouse, MIDI device, or even disk drive. This chip has TinyUSB support – that means you can use it with Arduino as a native USB device and act as UART (CDC), HID, Mass Storage, MIDI, and more!

The Analog Thing V1.2 (in short THAT) is a high-quality, low-cost, open-source, and not-for-profit cutting-edge analog computer designed for desktop use to solve (sets of) differential equations. With its patch panel instead of keyboard, mouse, and monitor, its user interface differs noticeably from those of its digital stored-program cousins. The patch panel is divided into groups of analog computing elements such as integrators, summers, and multipliers.
THAT allows modeling dynamic systems with great speed, parallelism, and energy efficiency. Its use is intuitively interactive, experimental, and visual. It bridges the gap between hands-on practice and mathematical theory, integrating naturally with design and engineering practices such as speculative trial-and-error exploration and the use of scale models.
Dynamic system modeling on THAT can serve a variety of valuable purposes. It may help understand what is (models of), or it may help bring about what should be (models for). It may be used to explain in educational settings, to imitate in gaming, to predict in the natural sciences, to control in engineering, or it may be pursued for the pure joy of it!
THAT can be used with various kinds of oscilloscopes, such as conventional cathode ray tube oscilloscopes, digital oscilloscopes, and USB oscilloscopes in conjunction with PCs.
Features
5 Integrators – Circuits that perform integration over time.
4 Summers – Circuits that add inputs continously.
2 Comparators – Circuits that compare inputs to support conditional functions.
Master/Minion Ports – Interfaces that allow daisy-chaining multiple THATs to create arbitrarily large programs.
8 Coefficient Potentiometers – Rotary knobs to provide user-defined inputs.
2 Multipliers – Circuits that multiply inputs continously.
Panel Meter – A digital panel meter for precision measurements of values and timing.
Hybrid Port – An interface for controlling THAT digitally to develop analog-digital hybrid programs.

A fantastic dual instrument pack featuring the Atlas DCA Semiconductor Analyzer and the Atlas LCR Passive Component Analyzer. Housed in a robust padded case, complete with spare battery, user guide and space for accessories.
The LCR40 (for Inductors, Capacitors and Resistors) is ideal for the hobbyist and professional alike. The DCA55 (for most semiconductors) provides fast component identification, pinout identification and wide component support.
LCR40
Handheld LCR analyzer providing measurements for inductance, capacitance and resistance. The component type is automatically detected for you, just connect and press 'test'. The test frequency is automatically selected to provide the best measurement resolution. Test frequencies include DC, 1kHz, 15kHz and 200kHz. Inductance from 1uH to 10uH, minimum resolution of 1uH, typical accuracy of ±1.5% between 100uH and 100mH. Capacitance from 1pF to 10,000uF, minimum resolution of 1pF typical accuracy of ±1.5% between 200pF and 500nF. Resistance from 1R to 2MR, typical accuracy of ±1%. Test frequency is displayed with the measurement. Inductor DC resistance also displayed when testing inductors. Supplied with removable gold plated hook probes, battery and user guide. Compatible with standard 2mm test connectors. Not designed for in-circuit use.

DCA55
Connect any way round to automatically identify and measure a wide range of semiconductor devices. The DCA55 will automatically identify the type of the part, pinout and many component parameters. Components supported include bipolar NPN/PNP transistors, darlingtons, diode-protected transistors, transistors with built-in resistors, enhancement mode MOSFETs, depletion mode MOSFETs, diodes, diode networks, LEDs, 2 and 3 lead bicolour LEDs, JFETs and many more. Further measurements are displayed including transistor gain, leakage current, pn voltage drops, LED voltages, MOSFET threshold voltages and much more. Even if you don't know anything about the part, just connect it in any configuration and the DCA55 will identify the type of part for you and also identify all the leads. Supplied with universal gold plated hook probes, battery and illustrated user guide. Not designed for in-circuit testing.
