Dune Worm Thumper
Make a prop thumper from the book and movies Dune. With motion and sound, you can summon the monster of all sandworms.
Adafruit Chainable DS18B20 Extender Breakout
While there is absolutely nothing stopping you from just wiring up DS18B20's directly to your microcontroller, these extender breakouts will make things just a lil bit easier. You can use JST 3-pin cables to chain the extenders, the soldered-on screw terminal blocks mean you can easily connect DS18B20's in TO-92 or cable style with just a screwdriver. Each extender has a 4.7K signal pullup on board that can be disabled by cutting a trace, and a buffered signal LED that will let you know when there's data transmission on the 1-Wire line.
Adafruit TRRS Trinkey
It's half USB Key, half TRRS breakout... it's the Adafruit TRRS Trinkey specifically designed for Assistive Technology hackers and creators as a simple and low cost, but also flexible and extendable AT device. Many AT interface devices use 3.5mm audio jacks to create switches or variable inputs - often mono TS or stereo TRS plugs. On the TRRS Trinkey, we connect all 6 pins of a 'switched' TRRS jack - tip, ring 1, ring 2, sleeve and the tip switch plus ring 1 switch - to 6 GPIO pins on the microcontroller.
USB Rotary Media Dial
Make a USB HID media controller with NeoPixel LEDS, QT Py RP2040 and Rotary Encoder STEMMA QT
Adafruit Proto Tripler PiCowbell
The Adafruit Proto Tripler PiCowBell is intended to be treated like a mini solder-less proto plate to simplify programming and sensor or display connectivity for your Raspberry Pi Pico board. Reset button? Yes! STEMMA QT / Qwiic connector for fast I2C? Indeed. Battery with recharging and on/off switch? Affirmative. Built in NeoPixel? Bien sur! EYE SPI connector? Truly! All plug-and-play, so no soldering necessary when used with a Pico H or Pico WH? Here you go!
Adafruit 555 PWM Output STEMMA
How many times have we heard "hey you could have just replaced that microcontroller with a 555"? Maybe 555 times! But we always find wiring up a timer chip to be a bit of a pain, you need quite a few components - especially if you want a buffered output. The Adafruit 555 PWM Output STEMMA is a fully-assembled 555 timer board with adjustable PWM square-wave output.
Adafruit SEN54 or SEN55 Adapter Breakout
Now you can quickly integrate the Sensirion SEN54 / SEN55 environmental sensor node into your microcontroller or microcomputer project, with no soldering or fiddly breadboarding - thanks to this here Adafruit SEN54 or SEN55 Adapter Breakout. This adapter breakout will make an instant friendship with all SEN5x boards, thanks to a JST GH-compatible connector in the middle so that you can plug a 6-pin GH cable directly between your SEN and this adapter.
Adafruit S-35710 Low-Power Wake Up Timer Breakout
The Adafruit S-35710 Low-Power Wake Up Timer Breakout is a low power 'watchdog timer' chip that can be programmed to alert with a digitally-configurable alarm from 1 second up to 194 days, thanks to a 24-bit second counter. It's an interesting alternative to a real time clock or internal sleep timer and might be useful for some ultra-low-power projects that want to have a separate (and possibly separately-powered) chip to handle time-keeping and alarms.
Adafruit PiCowbell Camera Breakout
Ding dong! Hear that? It's the PiCowbell ringing, letting you know that the new Adafruit PiCowbell OV5640 Camera Breakout is in stock. This is a quality OV5640 camera with a 5 Megapixel sensor element plus all the support circuitry you need to start taking pictures with your Pico or Pico W. You can grab raw RGB images for image analysis, or use the built-in JPEG encoding to save images to a microSD card or upload them to adafruit.io.
Adafruit CH552 QT Py
The QT Py CH552 is an 'enhanced' E8051 core microcontroller, compatible with MCS51 instruction set but with 8~15 times faster instruction execution speed. It's also got 4 built-in ADC channels, capacitive touch support, 3 timers / PWM channels, hardware UART, SPI, and a full-speed USB device controller. It can act like a native USB device such as CDC serial or mouse/keyboard HID.
Adafruit USB Host BFF
The Adafruit USB Host BFF makes it easy to add USB Host support to your QT Py board, especially now that TinyUSB supports it in the Arduino library as a 'native' interface for host support. This BFF uses the MAX3421E - a tried and true USB Host chip. It uses SPI plus an IRQ pin to send data to just about any USB device. To keep the BFF very compact, we use a micro-B USB "OTG" connector.
Adafruit DVI Sock for Pico
Wouldn't it be cool to display images and graphics directly from your Pico or Pico W to an HDMI monitor or television? We think so! So we designed this DVI Sock with a digital video output (a.k.a DVI) that will work with any HDMI monitor or display. Note it doesn't do audio, just graphics!
Gravity Falls Memory Gun
3D print a prop replica of the Memory Gun from Gravity Falls using Feather RP2040 PropMaker and CircuitPython.
USB Host to BLE Keyboard Adapter
In this project, a Feather ESP32-S3 TFT runs Arduino code that utilizes its BLE capabilities to act as a BLE keyboard. Alongside the Feather is the USB Host FeatherWing that lets you plug in a USB device and pipe its inputs to the Feather. The Feather then sends these key inputs over BLE to your computer or other connected device.
Adafruit TSSP77038 38KHz Infrared IR Demodulator Breakout
The Adafruit TSSP77038 IR Demodulator Breakout is a simple IR demodulator in that it doesn't do any filtering on the codes received: you really just get the demodulated-from-38KHz-signal output. This board will work nicely for a variety of IR detecting projects. Using a 2mm pitch STEMMA JST PH cable with headers or alligator clips on the end, you can easily wire this board without any soldering.
