Adafruit MEMENTO Camera Board
Make memories, or just a cool camera-based project, with Adafruit's MEMENTO Camera Board. It's a development board with everything you need to create programmable camera and vision projects: with a camera module, TFT preview screen, buttons, SD card slot and driven by a powerful ESP32-S3 with 2 MB of PSRAM for buffering 5 MegaPixel camera images.
Adafruit USB Host FeatherWing with MAX3421E
The Adafruit USB Host FeatherWing makes it easy to add USB Host support, especially now that TinyUSB supports it in the Arduino library as a 'native' interface for host support. This Wing 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.
Video Playing 2.1" Round Ornament TFT
Make an ornament that plays holiday videos!
Qualia S3 Fireplace
3D print a festive fireplace that plays yule log video clips using Adafruit Qualia ESP32-S3 and 3.2in RGB TFT Bar Display.
Qualia S3 Space Clock
David Bowie asked if there was life on Mars, but what about time? With this project, you can easily switch between viewing your local time on Earth and coordinated Mars time (MTC) on a beautiful round 720x720 display housed in a retro space-themed orb enclosure.
Adafruit ADS7830 8-Channel 8-Bit ADC
The Adafruit ADS7830 8-Channel 8-Bit ADC with an I2C interface is an affordable 8-channel ADC with I2C interface, so it's easy to include with any platform. Wire up to the SDA/SCL pins plus power and ground, only four wires required. If you need more than 8 channels, there's 2 address pins so you could have 4 x 8 = 32 total ADC channels with chain-able Stemma QT cables.
Adafruit VCNL4020 Proximity and Light Sensor
The VCNL4020 is a handy two-in-one sensor, with a proximity sensor that works from 0 to 200mm (about 7.5 inches) and light sensor with range of 0.26 to 16,000 lux. As with all of our new I2C sensors, we've taken the VCNL4020 and put it onto a breakout PCB along with support circuitry to let you use this little wonder with 3.3V (Feather/Raspberry Pi) or 5V (Arduino/ Metro328) logic levels. Since it speaks I2C you can easily connect it up with two wires (plus power and ground!).
Case for HUSB238 Breakout
3D print a snap fit case for the HUSB238 USB-C power delivery breakout board.
Adafruit AD5693R 16-Bit DAC Breakout Board
Which is better, less bits or more? MORE of course! The Adafruit AD5693R Breakout Board is a 16-Bit DAC with I2C Interface and temperature compensated 2.5V internal reference for a compact high-precision output. We break out the ADDR/A0 pin so you can connect two of these DACs on one I2C bus. Works with both 3.3V or 5V logic.
LED Matrix Sports Scoreboard
You can build a large RGB LED matrix display to monitor your favorite sport teams. A Matrix Portal S3 running CircuitPython requests data from the ESPN API to show your teams' gameplay data alongside team logos that are resized and gamma corrected to look crisp and bright on the matrices.
Adafruit HUSB238 USB Type C Power Delivery Breakout
The HUSB238 USB PD sink chip is neat in that you can either use jumpers (really, resistor selection) to set the desired PD voltage and current or you can use I2C for dynamic querying and setting. We've built a nice Adafruit USB Type C Power Delivery Dummy Breakout board around the HUSB238 to make it very easy to configure and integrate without having to solder any tiny resistors.
Guitar Synth with CircuitPython SynthIO
Build your own custom synth guitar using SynthIO in CircuitPython
Adafruit STEMMA Piezo Driver Amp
Piezos make noise when you put an AC voltage across them: and the bigger the voltage used the louder they are. We found the nifty PAM8904, which is an amplifier specifically designed for driving piezo elements. We whipped up a quick breakout in our 2mm JST-PH STEMMA form-factor to make it easy for anyone who wants to beep their boops very loudly.
Prop-Maker Feather Talking Adabot Clock
Not sure what time it is? Never quite got the hang of reading an analog clock? Ask Adabot! In this project, you'll use an RP2040 Prop-Maker Feather running CircuitPython with a DS3231 real-time clock breakout to build a friendly, talking clock. Whenever you press the button on the top of Adabot's head, he will announce the current time for you.
Use Docker to Compile Linux for ESP32-S3
In this guide, you'll setup and install Docker, run a test Dockerfile to create a test container, run the ESP32-S3 Linux Dockerfile, upload the compiled files to the ESP32-S3 and then perform the ultimate skateboard trick: boot Linux on an ESP32-S3!
