Adafruit 4H Circuit Playground Express Base Kit
Adafruit 4H Circuit Playground Express Base Kit offers all the requirements to start with Circuit Playground Express. The Circuit Playground Express works with Microsoft MakeCode, CircuitPython, code.org CS discoveries, or Arduino IDE. The Circuit Playground Express is an advanced version of the Circuit Playground Classic with more sensors and is easy to program. The base kit comes with 4H Circuit Playground Express, a USB cable (A/MicroB), three alkaline AAA batteries, three AAA battery holders, and a mini storage box.
Features
- 10x mini NeoPixels, each one can display any color
- 1x motion sensor (LIS3DH triple-axis accelerometer with tap detection, free-fall detection)
- 1x temperature sensor (thermistor)
- 1x light sensor (phototransistor), can also act as a color sensor and pulse sensor
- 1x sound sensor (MEMS microphone)
- 1x mini speaker with class D amplifier (7.5mm magnetic speaker/buzzer)
- 2x pushbuttons, labeled A and B
- 1x slide switch
- Infrared receiver/transmitter, can receive and transmit any remote control codes and send messages between Circuit Playground Expresses, can also act as a proximity sensor
- 8x alligator-clip-friendly input/output pins
- Includes I2C, UART, 8 pins that can do analog inputs, multiple PWM output
- 7x pads can act as capacitive touch inputs, and the 1x remaining is a true analog output
