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-3985 | Brand: Adafruit

This T-Slot Photo Interrupter with Cable is a simple plastic sensor with two elements - an IR LED and an IR photo-transistor, situated across a U-shaped gap. You can control the IR LED and turn it on to transmit IR...

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: AF-3492 | Brand: Adafruit

The Adafruit PDM MEMS Microphone Breakout provides a digital audio input using Pulse Density Modulation (PDM) — a common interface in commercial products that's distinct from both analogue and I2S microphones. It's id...

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-14262 | Brand: SparkFun

The SparkFun Sound Detector is a small and very easy-to-use audio sensing board with three different outputs. The Sound Detector not only provides an audio output, but also a binary indication of the presence of sound...

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-DFR0051 | Brand: DFRobot

The Analog Voltage Divider V2 can detect the supply voltage from 0.0245V to 25V. This module is based on resistor divider principle. The voltage detection module allows the input voltage to reduce 5 times. As the A...

SKU: DF-DFR0028 | Brand: DFRobot

This is an arduino tilt sensor. It is used to detect orientation. Inside the sensor, there is a ball that make contact with the pins when the case is upright. Tilt the sensor over and the balls don't touch, thus n...

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: SF-SEN-13637 | Brand: SparkFun

A simple breakout board for measuring moisture in soil and similar materials. The two large exposed pads act as probes — functioning as a variable resistor where higher moisture means better conductivity, lower resist...

SKU: DF-DFR0316 | Brand: DFRobot

A 4-channel, 18-bit delta-sigma analogue-to-digital converter (ADC) module based on the Microchip MCP3424. This module adds high-accuracy analogue input capability to Raspberry Pi, Arduino, and other microcontroller p...

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...
