Adafruit Ultimate GPS Breakout with GLONASS + GPS – PA1616D – 99 channel w/10 Hz updates: This version of the Ultimate GPS is even MORE Ultimate, with support for more GPS-like networks such as GLONASS, for even more coverage worldwide. It uses a slightly taller module than our classic Ultimate GPS, and uses a little more power. Otherwise its almost identical in functionality
DIY Magnetic Connector – Straight Angle Five Contact Pins: If you love power adapters or toys & gadgets that have magnetic connections, you can now experiment with these futuristic connectors easily. It’s sorta like a DIY “MagSafe-styled” connector, with five 0.1″ spaced contact pogo pins and a straight solderable connection to your PCB. If you’ve ever owned a MacBook or a littleBits set, you’ll find the functionality familiar.
Through Hole Dual Inline Pogo Pin Header – 2×3 with 0.1″ Spacing: Pogo pins are little spring-loaded contacts, very handy for making jigs, or making momentary (but electrically solid) contacts. We use them by the dozen for making programming and testing jigs but they’re handy also if say you want to JTAG program a board that you can’t solder headers to.
Through Hole Inline Pogo Pin Header – 9 Pins with 0.1″ Spacing: Pogo pins are little spring-loaded contacts, very handy for making jigs, or making momentary (but electrically solid) contacts. We use them by the dozen for making programming and testing jigs but they’re handy also if say you want to JTAG program a board that you can’t solder headers to.
Zero Spy Camera for Raspberry Pi Zero – 120 Degree Focal Angle: Is your house haunted? Or, rather, are you convinced that your house is haunted but have never been able to prove it since you’ve never had a camera that integrated with your Raspberry Pi Zero but was still small enough that the ghosts wouldn’t notice it?
Luckily, the Spy Camera for Raspberry Pi Zero is smaller than a thumbnail with a high enough resolution to see people, ghosts, or whatever it is you’re looking for. It’s about the size of a cell phone camera – the module being just 8.6mm x 8.6mm – with only a 2″ cable, so you can create an extra compact and sneaky little spy cam. This version has a 120-degree focal angle for a fisheye effect that’s great for security systems or watching a big swath of the living room or roadway.
Zero Spy Camera for Raspberry Pi Zero – 160 Degree Focal Angle: Like the Raspberry Pi Camera Board, it attaches to your Raspberry Pi Zero v1.3 or Zero W by way of the small socket on the board’s edge closest to the “PWR in” port. This interface uses the dedicated CSI interface, which was designed especially for interfacing to cameras. The CSI bus is capable of extremely high data rates, and it exclusively carries pixel data.
Adafruit QT Py ESP32 Pico – WiFi Dev Board with STEMMA QT – 8MB Flash 2MB PSRAM: This dev board is like when you’re watching a super-hero movie and the protagonist shows up in a totally amazing costume in the third act and you’re like ‘OMG! That’s the hero and they’re here to kick some serious butt!” but in this case its a microcontroller.
This QT Py board is a thumbnail-sized PCB that features the ESP32 Pico V3 02, an all-in-one chip that has an ESP32 chip with dual-core 240MHz Tensilica processor, WiFi and Bluetooth classic + BLE, adds a bunch of required passives and oscillator, 8 MB of Flash memory and 2 MB of PSRAM. We add a USB to serial converter chip, some more passives, an antenna, USB C, buttons, NeoPixel and QT connector to outfit this super-hero chip for any task you want to throw it at.
New Prods 4/27/22 Feat. Adafruit QT Py ESP32 Pico – WiFi Dev Board w/STEMMA QT -8MB Flash 2MB PSRAM!
