Adafruit Sparkle Motion
Adafruit's Sparkle Motion board puts easy LED control right at your fingertips. Onboard Infrared control, a microphone for sound reaction, and multiple LED ports make this board perfect for larger scale LED projects.
Stepper Motor Turntable
Turn an IKEA lazy susan into a motorized turntable using the TMC2209 stepper driver, Adafruit KB2040 and CircuitPython.
Adafruit Sparkle Motion Mini
Adafruit's Sparkle Motion Mini board is a wonderful choice for wearables or light projects on a smaller scale. With WLED preinstalled it's never been easier to get up and running with NeoPixels.
Adafruit TMC2209 Stepper Motor Driver Breakout Board
The TMC2209 makes driving steppers easy-breezy and super-silent. All you need is two output pins, no timers, PWM or real-time microcontroller. Set the DIRection pin high or low to set the spin orientation. Then toggle the STEP pin to take one microstep at a time. You can set whether you want to go faster with 1/8 microsteps, or increase the precision to 1/16, 1/32 or 1/64 microsteps per STEP toggle.
Adafruit 1.14" 240x135 Color Newxie TFT Display
Say hello to our new Newxie 1.14 240x135 Color TFT Display Boards. We think it's T-F-Terrific! It's the size of your thumbnail, with glorious 240x135 high res pixel color. This very, very small display is only 1.14 inch diagonal, packed with RGB pixels, for making very small, high-density displays. And this breakout board is designed for compact stacking on a 0.1 inch grid - with a vertical arrangement that mimics old-school nixie tubes.

Adafruit A4988 Stepper Motor Driver Breakout Board
The Adafruit A4988 Stepper Motor Driver Breakout Board makes controlling stepper motors easy-breezy. All you need is two output pins, no timers, PWM or real-time microcontroller. Set the DIRection pin high or low to set the spin orientation. Then toggle the STEP pin to take one step or microstep at a time. You can set whether you want to go fast with single-step mode or improve the motion precise with 1/4, 1/8 or 1/16 microstepping per STEP toggle.
Using the CircuitPython Extension for Visual Studio Code
One of the great features of CircuitPython is that you can edit your code with a simple text editor - no integrated development environment (IDE) required! But what if you do want to use an IDE? You can use the CircuitPython v2 extension for VS Code for a fully featured CircuitPython development experience - including the REPL.
Adafruit bq25185 USB / DC / Solar Charger with 5V Boost Board
The Adafruit bq25185 USB / DC / Solar Charger with 5V Boost Board uses the new bq25185 is a nifty charger chip with fairly high charge current, power path support, and the ability to charge from USB, DC or solar power. The boost converter is the TPS61023, which will give up to 1 Amp output with good efficiency, to squeeze the most power possible out of your battery.
Adafruit bq25185 USB / DC / Solar Charger with 3.3V Buck Board
The Adafruit bq25185 USB / DC / Solar Charger with 3.3V Buck Board uses the new bq25185 is a nifty charger chip with fairly high charge current, power path support, and the ability to charge from USB, DC or solar power. It's also a great value, so it's a good upgrade from MCP73833 or MCP73831-based charger boards. The buck converter is the TPS62569, which will give a clean 1 Amp output with good efficiency, to squeeze the most power possible out of your battery.
Adafruit VCNL4200 Long Distance IR Proximity and Light Sensor
The VCNL4200 is a powerful two-in-one sensor, with a proximity sensor that works from 0 to 1.5m (59 inches) and light sensor with range of 0.003 to 1570 lux. It's the longest-range IR distance sensor we've seen other than the Sharp Analog distance sensors, and at a great price with I2C interface.
Adafruit bq25185 USB / DC / Solar Lithium Ion/Polymer Charger
The Adafruit bq25185 USB / DC / Solar Charger Board uses the new bq25185. It is a nifty charger chip which has a lot of flexibility for different kinds of batteries (LiPoly, LiIon or LiFePO4), charging rates (250mA, 500mA, or 1A) and power sources (USB, DC or solar). To let folks really explore what this chip can do, we made a basic breakout board with all the things we find most useful: two ways to power/charge including a solar-friendly DC input, adjustable current and voltage, power path management, and status and control I/O.
