Micro:bit: Programmable board
Features:
Pocket-sized computer to create robots, musical instruments and more - the possibilities are endless.
32-bit ARM Cortex-M0 CPU, 256KB Flash, 16KB RAM, Bluetooth low energy (BLE).
A 5x5 LED matrix with 25 red LEDs to light up and can display animated patterns, scrolling text and alphanumeric characters.
2-in-1 sensor: On-board motion detector or 3-AXIS digital accelerometer that can detect movement e.g. shake, tilt or free-fall and use it to control motion activated games; A built-in compass, 3D magnetometer to sense which direction you're facing and your movement in degrees and detect the presence of certain metals and magnets.
Two programmable buttons. Use them as a games controller, or control music on a smart phone.
Specification:
Microprocessor: 32-bit ARM® Cortex™ M0 CPU.
A 5x5 LED matrix with 25 red LEDs to light up and can display animiated patterns, scrolling text and alphanumeric characters.
Programmable buttons x2. Use them as a games controller, or control music on a smart phone.
On-board motion detector or 3-AXIS digital accelerometer that can detect movement e.g. shake, tilt or free-fall.
A built-in compass, 3D magnetometer to sense direction and your movement in degrees also the presence of certain metals and magnets.
Bluetooth® Smart Technology. Connect the micro:bit to other micro:bits, devices, phones, tablets, cameras and other everday objects.
Five Ring Input and Output (I/O) including power (PWR), ground (GRD) and 3 x I/O. To read values from sensors and control things like motors or robots.
20 pin edge connector: This allows the micro:bit to be connected to other devices such as Raspberry Pi, Arduino, Galileo and Kano through a standard connector.
Micro-USB controller: This is controlled by a separate processor and presents the micro:bit to a computer as a memory stick.
System LED x 1 yellow.
System Reset Button switch x 1.
