This project can be completed in under 5 minutes. This tutorial will show you how to assemble and program the Micro:Bit temperature monitor with ☒CHIPs. The code for this project is simple using Micro:bit’s drag-and-drop platform.
I built this temperature monitor using the Micro:Bit and a couple of ☒CHIPs from XinaBox. It is a very simple and quick build. The XinaBoxtechnology made this project extremely easy to do by eliminating the need for soldering and tools. The Micro:bit interface allows me to program easily. You can easily modify the code to add other data from the Weather Sensor, such as Barometric Pressure, Relative Humidity and Altitude.

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.
