This is the perfect speaker for projects that produce sound but where space is tight or where the speaker needs to be discreet. These speakers work well with the BBC microbit; you can code the microbit to play music or emit a beep as an alarm and this little speaker will do an admirable job.

This a 0.25W, 8ohm speaker is only 40mm in diameter and just over 4mm thick making it very similar in size to those found in talking greeting cards, you could even design a microbit talking greeting card that has the built in micro:bit as a present as well as part of the card.

Features:

8ohm speaker that is ideal for use with the BBC microbit.

4mm thick, making it ideal for use as a discreet speaker.

This learn to solder pack is the ideal low cost solution for teaching soldering in the classroom/after school club. The pack provides all of the parts and PCB's required for a class size of 25 and also includes a 9V battery for testing purposes. Each pack comprises; 25 x PCBs, 100 x 100 ohm resistors, 25 x LED's, and a 9V PP3 battery.

There is also a step by step guide to soldering, which covers; equipment, solder, tinning & cleaning, soldering in 8 steps, de-soldering in five steps, wire preparation, examples of good and bad solder joints, basic PCB repair, resistor information, LED information, full step by step build information for the kit, and how the learn to solder kit works. This guide covers everything that you might need to discuss with students and can form the basis of your lesson plan.

Using the kits and the step by step guide, each student will solder four resistors and one LED to their PCB before pressing it to the terminals of the 9V battery to check that their board works. Using the guides they will be able to examine their own work and troubleshoot problems. The battery pads on the PCBs have been shaped inline with the battery terminals on a PP3 battery making it straightforward to see which way around it should be placed on the battery.

Features:

Purpose built PCBs that can be tested, once built, with the supplied 9V PP3 battery.

Low cost classroom pack for 25 students.

Each of these new ZIP Circles has 12 individually addressable RGB LED’s. Each LED can be controlled independently and all LEDs are connected using the same three wire bus. Each LED can produce a full spectrum of colours independent to all of the other LEDs on the bus. Each ZIP LED has a Red, Green and Blue element within the LED, and each of these can achieve 256 levels of brightness. This results in 16,777,216 possible output colours. Multiple ZIP LEDs can be connected to produce longer strings/strips.

The LEDs used are based on the WS2812B part which is compatible with any WS2812B driver code. They can also be coded in the MakeCode Block/Javascript editor.

Features:

Simple 3 wire connection for all LEDs.

Compatible with any WS2812B driver code.
