SKU: AF-5309 | Brand: Adafruit

The Adafruit MSA311 is a compact, low-cost triple-axis accelerometer with 14-bit resolution and a rich set of built-in motion detection features. Very similar to the MSA301 but with an updated I2C address (0x62 instea...

SKU: DF-SEN0365 | Brand: DFRobot

This compact breakout uses the AMS AS7341 spectral sensor IC to measure colour across multiple visible-light bands. It is designed for projects that need more detail than a basic RGB colour sensor, with channels cover...

SKU: AF-4488 | Brand: Adafruit

The Adafruit LIS2MDL is a triple-axis magnetometer (compass) breakout from ST, capable of sensing magnetic fields across a wide ±50 gauss (±5000 µT) range with no range configuration required. It's ideal for detecting...

SKU: LB-TILT | Brand: Little Bird

A simple tilt sensor module that detects orientation changes. When tilted, the internal conductive ball breaks the circuit; when returned upright, it reconnects — providing a digital output signal. It's a compact, low...

SKU: EF-EF04092 | Brand: ElecFreaks

The Octopus Light Sensor Brick reads the ambient light level of its surrounding environment and outputs an analog signal. The 3-pin GVS connector makes it easy to plug into micro:bit expansion boards, Arduino, and oth...

SKU: DF-SEN0290 | Brand: DFRobot

Gravity: Lightning Sensor employs AMS innovative AS3935 Franklin lightning sensor IC and Coilcraft MA5532-AE dedicated antenna to detect lightning distance, intensity, and frequency within a radius of 40km both indoor...

SKU: DF-SEN0250 | Brand: DFRobot

The BMI160 6-axis inertial motion sensor is a new product from DFRobot. It is based on Bosch BMI160 6-axis MEMS sensor which integrates 16-bit 3-axis accelerometer with ultra-low-power 3-axis gyroscope. Bosch BMI160 ...

SKU: DF-SEN0245 | Brand: DFRobot

The VL53L0X laser range finder is a high-precision distance sensor that based on new Time-of-Flight (ToF) principle. VL53L0X provides accurate distance measurement whatever the target reflection unlike traditional ...

SKU: AF-4162 | Brand: Adafruit

The Adafruit VEML7700 is a high-accuracy ambient light sensor from Vishay that outputs calibrated lux values over I2C. Unlike basic light sensors that return unitless brightness readings, the VEML7700 calculates lux (...

SKU: AF-1083 | Brand: Adafruit

Add high-speed analog-to-digital conversion to any microcontroller with the ADS1015 breakout. This 12-bit ADC delivers 3,300 samples per second over I2C, with four single-ended or two differential input channels and a...

SKU: AF-1375 | Brand: Adafruit

This breakout board is the simplest way to create a project with a single "toggle" capacitive touch sensor. No microcontroller is required here - just power with 1.8 to 5.5VDC and touch the pad to activate the sens...

SKU: DF-DFR0504 | Brand: DFRobot

The Analog Signal Isolator can isolate analog signal and provide isolated power to sensors. It can effectively prevent sensor signal interference and apply to multi-parameter water quality monitoring sensors. Because...

SKU: SF-SEN-09196 | Brand: SparkFun

This basic piezo sensor from Measurement Specialties is often used for flex, touch, vibration and shock measurements. A small AC and large voltage (up to +/-90V) is created when the film moves back and forth. A simple...

SKU: SF-COM-09032 | Brand: SparkFun

This is a joystick very similar to the ‘analog’ joysticks on PS2 (PlayStation 2) controllers. Directional movements are simply two potentiometers - one for each axis. Pots are ~10k each. This joystick also has a se...

SKU: DF-SEN0156 | Brand: DFRobot

A rotary switch is a switch operated by rotation. It is often used when more than 2 positions are needed, such as multi-speed control. The Rotary Switch uses an analog input to read the 12 state which saves...

SKU: DF-SEN0165 | Brand: DFRobot

In the ever-increasing need and awareness for health and safety, water has become a focus point for proper disinfection treatment as aftereffects of industrialization can become a danger for contamination of water...

SKU: AF-519 | Brand: Adafruit

Measuring stretch forces isn't easy - unless you have some conductive rubber cord! This cord is 2mm diameter, and 1 meter long, made of carbon-black impregnated rubber. Usually this material is used for EMF gasketing,...

SKU: SF-SEN-10289 | Brand: SparkFun

This AT407 basic tilt switch can easily be used to detect orientation. Inside the can is a ball that make contact with the pins when the case is upright. Tilt the case over and the balls don’t touch, thus not making a...

SKU: SF-SEN-10245 | Brand: SparkFun

A single-point load cell (strain gauge) rated for up to 50 kg. This is the same type of sensor found in digital bathroom scales. It outputs a small analogue voltage proportional to the applied force, which can be read...
