NEW PRODUCTS – Red Hex-Segment Single Digit – 2.3″ and 0.8″ Tall Common anode
Red Hex-Segment Single Digit – 2.3″ Tall Common anode. Big! Segmented! Hex! This is a huge hex-segemented digit, so big it won’t fit on a single breadboard. Luscious 2.3″ tall digits with bright red segments. Each digit comes with 16-segmented digit plus one decimal point. The other decimal point doesn’t light up – you could color it in with a black sharpie if the unlit dot is distracting. We don’t have a backpack or driver for this digit, but you can connect the common anode to about 5VDC and then connect a 200-1000 ohm resistor from each cathode to ground each segment through a 74HC595 or microcontroller pin.
Red Hex-Segment Single Digit – 0.8″ Tall Common anode. Mini! Segmented! Hex! This is a little hex-segemented digit that fits great into a breadboard. Cute 0.8″ tall digits with bright red segments. Each digit comes with 16-segmented digit plus one decimal point. We don’t have a backpack or driver for this digit, but you can connect the common cathode to Ground and then connect a 200-1000 ohm resistor from each anode to 3-5VDC to light up each segment through a 74HC595 or microcontroller pin.
Make a robot friend with Adafruit’s CRICKIT – A Creative Robotics & Interactive Construction Kit. It’s an add-on to our popular Circuit Playground Express, FEATHER and other platforms to make and program robots with CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. Start controlling motors, servos, solenoids. You also get signal pins, capacitive touch sensors, a NeoPixel driver and amplified speaker output. It complements & extends your boards so you can still use all the goodies on the microcontroller, now you have a robotics playground as well.
