A lot of debug adapters cost money that you’d much rather spend on tinkering. But not the IBDAP – CMSIS-DAP JTAG/SWD Debug Adapter Kit from armsmart – a vendor independent debug interface that works with your PC over USB and targets ARM devices over its JTAG/SWD pins.
Fully supported by most commonly used debugging tools, the IBDAP kit is able to perform debugging functions like stepping, breakpoints, watch points, and firmware downloads. While debugging’s the IBDAP adapter kit’s primary use, it can also be used as a general development board with a ARM Cortex M0 processor.
Comes as a fully assembled CMSIS-DAP debugger board, a 2×5-SWD-to-2×10-JTAG adapter and a SWD 2×5 0.05″ pitch connector cable. There’s more info on the armsmart website!

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
