Get creative, connected and coding with a complete inventor kit for the BBC micro:bit. It includes a micro:bit board and a selection of parts for building and experimenting with multiple electronic circuits.
You can work through projects that teach you how to read sensors, move motors, build Bluetooth® devices and more. The kit now ships with micro:bit v2.
No soldering is required, making it suitable for everyone from beginners through to engineers. Little Bird tutorials and SparkFun example projects are available to help you get started.
Kit includes:
- Full-Size Breadboard
- Small Servo
- TMP36 Temperature Sensor
- Photocell
- USB Micro-B Cable
- Jumper Wires - M/M & M/F
- Alligator Clips with Pigtails (Male)
- RGB LED
- Red, Blue, Yellow, Green, White LEDs
- 10K Trimpot
- 4 Push Buttons
- SPDT Mini Power Switch
- Active Buzzer
- 220 Ohm Resistors
- 10K Ohm Resistors
- Battery Pack
A handy classroom, workshop or home starter kit for learning electronics and coding with the micro:bit ecosystem.
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- LED
- A light-emitting diode is a small electronic component that lights up when current flows through it in the correct direction. In this kit, LEDs create the flashing effect, so polarity and correct soldering matter for the project to work.
- photocell
- A light-sensitive component whose electrical resistance changes with the amount of light falling on it. It matters when choosing or using light sensors, automatic lights, or brightness-detecting circuits because its response speed, resistance range, and sensitivity affect how reliably it detects light levels.
- RGB
- Short for red, green and blue, usually referring to an LED that can mix those three colours. It matters because controlling an RGB LED teaches how separate outputs combine to create different colours.
- servo
- A servo is a motor with built-in position control, usually told to move to a specific angle by a control signal. It matters when you need repeatable movement, such as steering, arms, flaps, or linkages, rather than continuous spinning.
