Kitronik ZIP Circle - 12 ZIP LEDs

Manufacturer: Kitronik

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.

They can be coded with the Microsoft MakeCode Editor for the BBC microbit.

Integrated reset circuit.

Grove - Ultrasonic Distance Sensor obs25

KI 46153

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.
