    Grove Ultrasonic Distance Sensor

    Manufacturer: Kitronik
    The Grove Ultrasonic Distance Sensor is an ultrasonic transducer that utilizes ultrasonic waves to measures distance. It can measure from 3cm to 350cm with the accuracy up to 2mm. It is a perfect ultrasonic module for distance measurement, proximity sensors, and ultrasonic detector.

    This module has an ultrasonic transmitter and an ultrasonic receiver so you can consider it as an ultrasonic transceiver. Similar to sonar, when the 40KHz ultrasonic wave generated by the transmitter encounters the object, the sound wave will be reflected back, and the receiver can receive the reflected ultrasonic wave. It calculates the time from the transmission to the reception, and then multiplies it by the speed of the sound in the air(340 m/s) to calculate the distance from the sensor to the object.

    Compared with traditional ultrasonic module, the HC-SR04, the Grove Ultrasonic Distance Sensor integrates a single-chip microcomputer, and the transmitting signal and the receiving signal share one pin by time division multiplexing, so only one I/O pin is occupied. Another difference is that HC-SR04 only supports 5v voltage, while Grove - Ultrasonic Distance Sensor supports 5v and 3.3v. As we know, the Raspberry pi I/O only supports 3.3v. Therefore, Grove - Ultrasonic Distance Sensor can be directly connected to the I/O of the Raspberry Pi, but HC-SR04 needs to use a voltage conversion circuit.

    Features:
  • 3.3V/5V compatible, wide voltage level: 3.2V ∼ 5.2V.
  • Only 3 pins needed, save I/O resources.
  • Wide measurement range of 3cm ∼ 350cm.
  • Easy to use, grove connector, plug and play.

  • Possible Applications:
  • Distance measurement.
  • Ultrasonic detector.
  • Proximity alarm.
  • Smart car/buggy/robot.

  • Dimensions:
  • Length: 50mm.
  • Width: 25mm.
  • Height: 16mm.

    ElecFreaks Motor:bit for Micro:bit

    EF03406
    Motor:bit is a motor driving board based on micro:bit. It has integrated a motor driving chip, which is used to drive two motors with maximun 1.2A DC single channel current. It has also integrated 12 GVS ports (for connecting OCTOPUS series of electric bricks) and 1 IIC communication port. These ports allow you to extend with various sensors and electric modules.

    On the board, P3-P7, P9-P10 are IO ports for directly driving 3.3V devices; P13-P16, P19-P20(IIC port) support 3.3V/5V voltage switch. Sliding the voltage switch onboard, it is available to drive 3.3V or 5V devices. Besides, you can play music with the buzzer on motor:bit. Motor:bit is totally designed for DIYers. You can use it to create your own smart car or any funny projects.

    FEATURES
  • Support 2 DC motors.
  • Max driving current of single channel is 1.2A.
  • Extend 14-channel IO ports and lead out it by GVS pins. Among it, 6 ports support 3V/5V voltage switch.
  • With 1 passive buzzer on board.

    Phototransister LTR-4206 Pack of 10

    KI 35139
    This Lite-On LTR-4206 Phototransistor is a fully RoHS compliant through hole component. This component has been used in our Inventors Kit (from V1.7) for the BBC microbit and replaced the LDR from previous versions. The phototransistor is also much more sensitive and precise than the LDR that it replaced.

    There are several different types of phototransistor on the market that are calibrated for certain wavelength bands, such as infrared. The LTR-4206 Phototransistor, however, has been calibrated for visible light and its conductivity is directly affected by the level of ambient light that falls on it. They can also be used as a replacement in circuits for similarly rated LDRs, including circuits featuring voltage dividers such as night lights.

    The LTR-4206 Phototransistor has been lensed for high light sensitivity and has been constructed from plastic to ensure that it also offers very good value for the money. They are supplied as a pack of 10.

    Features:
  • Lensed for high light sensitivity.
  • Low cost plastic package.
  • Supplied as a 10 pack.
  • They can be used as an alternative to LDRs.
  • The flat side denotes the collector. The non flat side denotes the emitter, and the light level falling on the lens determines the base voltage.
  • RoHS compliant

  • Contains:
  • 10 x LTR-4206 Phototransistors.

  • Dimensions:
  • Package Length: 6mm.
  • Pitch: 2.54mm.
  • Diameter: 4mm.
