Adafruit Grand Central M4 Express featuring the SAMD51
Are you ready? Really ready? Cause here comes the Adafruit Grand Central featuring the Microchip ATSAMD51. This dev board is so big, it’s not named after a Metro train, it’s a whole freakin’ station!
Grove Cable Pigtail – 2mm pitch 100mm long
If you’d like to make a connection to a board or breakout with Seeed Grove connection, this 100mm long 4-wire cable is fitted with a Grove connector and four bare wires.
IDE Molex 4 Pin Socket Cable – 30cm long
For big projects with big power needs, an AT or ATX power supply is a handy place to grab 5V or 12VDC. The only problem is that these supplies have connectors that only plug into motherboards or hard drives. That’s where this cable comes in. It has a matching 4-pin Molex connector to the hard drive/CD-ROM power cables that come out of a power supply so you can use this to grab 5V or 12V. Heck, you can even use this cable while your computer is powered, say to decorate your hard drive with LEDs or VFD/LCD displays, etc.
Adafruit KB2040 – RP2040 Kee Boar Driver
A wild Kee Boar appears! It’s a shiny KB2040! An Arduino Pro Micro-shaped board for Keebs with RP2040. (#keeblife 4 evah) A lot of folks like using Adafruit parts for their Keeb builds – but with the ItsyBitsy not being pin-compatible with the Pro Micro pinout, it really wasn’t very easy without some sort of adapter plate.
Adafruit Right Angle VEML7700 Lux Sensor – I2C Light Sensor – STEMMA QT / Qwiic
Vishay has a lot of light sensors out there, and this is a nice simple lux sensor that’s easy to add to any microcontoller. Most light sensors just give you a number for brighter/darker ambient lighting. The VEML7700 makes your life easier by calculating the lux, which is an SI unit for light. You’ll get more consistent readings between multiple sensors because you aren’t dealing with some unit-less values.
