Product information "Breakout board for XBee modules"
This is a simple breakout board for the popular XBee product from Digi. This board breaks out all 20 pins of the XBee onto a two row header with 0.1" standard spacing. The spacing between the 0.1" connectors is 0.5" so the board is DIP friendly. We strongly recommend using the female headers to avoid having to permanently solder the XBee to the breakout board. This is the board only. Please order the corresponding 2mm sockets (you need 2!) and 0.1" pin headers as well.

It's blue! It is thin! It's the Arduino Pro Mini! SparkFun's minimal design approach to Arduino. This is a 5V Arduino running the 16MHz bootloader. The Arduino Pro Mini does not come with assembled connectors, so you can solder in any connector or wire with any orientation. We recommend that Arduino beginners start with the Uno R3. It's a great board to get you started quickly. The Arduino Pro series is for users who understand the limitations of the system voltage (5V), lack of connectors and USB outside the board.
We really wanted to minimise the cost of an Arduino. To achieve this, we used all SMD components, made it dual layer, etc. This board connects directly to the FTDI Basic Breakout Board and supports auto-reset. The Arduino Pro Mini also works with the FTDI cable, but the FTDI cable does not bring out the DTR pin, so the auto-reset function will not work. There is a voltage regulator on board so it can accept a voltage up to 12VDC. If you power the board with unregulated voltage, make sure you connect it to the "RAW" pin and not VCC.
The latest and greatest version of this board breaks out the ADC6 and ADC7 pins and adds footprints for optional I2C pull-up resistors! We've also taken the opportunity to put the OSHW logo on it.
Note: A portion of this sale goes back to Arduino LLC to fund further development of new tools and new IDE features.

Fingerprint scanners have been readily available at the consumer level for several years now, so it's only logical that they continue to grow and evolve over time. That's what brings us to this capacitive fingerprint scanner from ADH-Tech. The AS-108M fingerprint sensor module is a combination fingerprint scanner and MCU that provides a UART interface for easy functionality.
The AS-108M stands out from other fingerprint scanners in that it reads the image of a fingerprint by pixel array and provides ridge or valley signals to the A/D converter and digital processor and then to the serial peripheral interface to read the data. The on-board MCU uses a fingerprint algorithm that allows you to use MCU-SOC commands via UART to operate modules such as fingerprint reading, match operations and more.
The AS-108M offers an image resolution of 508dpi, a recognition time of less than 0.6 seconds and can store up to 100 high-quality templates. Unlike other fingerprint scanners, this version comes with an interface cable with a 6-pin connector output that plugs into the connection port for easy setup and installation.
Includes:
1x Capacitive fingerprint scanner - AS-108M
1x interface cable
1x interface cable connector

Cable description
This is 12 metres of smooth, conductive thread spun from stainless steel fibres and wound onto a plastic bobbin. You can use it to sew all your e-textile projects. This small spool is a great way to get into wearable electronics without the expense of buying a whole spool of thread. Almost 40 feet of thread is enough to sew a simple design onto your shirt, backpack or hat.
What sets this thread apart from the other conductive threads we carry is the fact that it is actually spun from 12UM stainless steel fibres, making it incredibly smooth and without the loose hairs seen in other spools. This means that while it's not easy to solder because it's stainless, it also won't burn if you touch it with a soldering iron. Suitable for hand and machine sewing (as bobbin thread). We had no problems using it for tight joins, but if you are worried, you should treat the thread with wax to keep it manageable!
Features:
Material: 12UM stainless steel fibre
Weight per gram:0.2458g/m
Thickness:2.8KGF
Diameter(mm):0.12
Resistance (?/m) : 27
12m per spool (on plastic spools)
This is a 30 foot long conductive thread spun from stainless steel fibres and wound onto a plastic bobbin. You can use it to sew all your e-textile projects. This small spool is a great way to get into wearable electronics without the expense of buying a whole spool of thread. 30 feet of thread is enough to sew a simple design onto your shirt, backpack or hat.
What sets this thread apart from the other conductive threads we carry is the fact that it is spun from this stainless steel fibre and does not have a nylon core. This means that although it is not easy to solder because it is stainless, it will not burn if you touch it with a soldering iron. It's suitable for hand or machine sewing (as a bobbin thread) and is particularly 'toothy', meaning it clings firmly to the fabric - if you've had problems with slippery conductive threads that won't lay flat or knot, this thread will be a welcome remedy. We've had no problems using it for tight, firm joins, but if you're worried, waxing the thread should ensure it stays manageable!

While a DMM is suitable for a quick check, a panel-mounted current and voltage meter is handy if you need to constantly monitor a system. Battery-powered systems can be quickly diagnosed by checking the overall system voltage; run times can be calculated based on instantaneous power consumption rates. For all these cases and more, it's just super handy to have a meter at hand.
This digital combination DC current and voltage meter measures up to 30 V and 10 A at a quiescent current of about 15 mA. All devices are supplied pre-calibrated, but can be further calibrated after installation with a small trimpot on the back of the device.
The wiring diagram shows normal cabling. The thicker 2-pin harness is for the ammeter and is normally wired into the current feedback path to the battery or ground. The thinner 3-pin harness is for the voltmeter. The black wire of the 3-pin harness is internally connected to the ammeter and can be wired to NC (not connected) or ground. The red wire of the ammeter should be connected to the system and the black wire of the ammeter should be connected to ground, otherwise the system will work but the meter will display 0.00 as it cannot display negative values.

Fingerprint scanners are ingenious! Why use a key when you have one right at the tip of your finger? Unfortunately, they are often unreliable or difficult to implement. Not anymore! This awesome GT-521F52 fingerprint module from ADH-Tech communicates via TTL Serial so you can easily incorporate it into your next project. The module itself handles the entire task of reading and identifying fingerprints with an integrated optical sensor and a 32-bit ARM Cortex M3 processor.
To get started, simply register each fingerprint you want to save by sending the appropriate command and pressing your finger against the reader three times. The fingerprint scanner can store different fingerprints, and the database of prints can even be downloaded from the device and distributed to other modules. In addition to the fingerprint "template", the analysed version of the print, you can retrieve the image of a fingerprint and even pull raw images from the optical sensor!
This module is the upgraded version of the GT-521F32 and can store up to an amazing 3,000 different fingerprints! It is able to recognise 360° fingerprints and download/upload templates via the serial interface. In addition, the GT-521Fxx series offers a resolution of 450dpi, with a false acceptance rate of <0.001% and a false rejection rate of <0.1%, while taking only <1.5 seconds to identify a unique fingerprint!
The module is small and easy to mount, with four mounting holes surrounding the sensor. The onboard JST-SH connector has four signals: Vcc, GND, Tx and Rx. A compatible JST-SH pigtail can be found in the "Hookup Accessories" section below.
Note: Please note that while this fingerprint scanner is equipped with the same connector we use on all of our Qwiic boards, it is NOT Qwiic or I2C compatible. This means all our Qwiic cables, such as our 100mm version, will work for this board.
Features:
Simple UART & USB communication protocol
Complies with USB 2.0 full-speed specification
Ultra flat optical sensor
450 dpi resolution
Capable of 360° recognition
Memory for 3,000 unique fingerprints

Seeed Grove - LoRa Radio 433MHz
The Grove - LoRa Radio 433MHz module is based on the RFM95 module, which uses the SX1276 LoRa chip. This offers ultra-long-range spread spectrum communication with high interference immunity and low power consumption. The module is optimised for Grove systems and integrates an ATmega168 microcontroller, which is known for its high performance and low power consumption. A simple wire antenna is fitted as standard. If the signal is too weak, an external high-performance antenna can be connected via the existing MHF connection. For optimum performance, we recommend positioning the antenna perpendicular to the circuit board and as straight as possible. Large metal objects near the antenna and metal housings should be avoided.
The product is used to expand Grove systems with a wireless LoRa communication interface in the 433 MHz frequency range. It is suitable for long-range IoT applications, especially where reliable wireless data transmission with low energy consumption is required. Typical applications include sensor networks, remote monitoring, data loggers and other embedded systems that need to communicate wirelessly. The existing MHF socket allows the use of external high-performance antennas for signal enhancement if required.
The module can be used for wireless data transmission over long distances. It combines low power consumption in standby and receive mode with a powerful transmission function. The average current consumption is approx. 28 mA for continuous transmission at +20 dBm, approx. 8.4 mA in standby mode and approx. 20 mA in receive mode. Communication takes place via UART. By using the Grove connector system, the module can be easily integrated into existing projects. Thanks to the ATmega168 chip, stable operation with low power consumption is possible. The wire antenna ensures simple initial commissioning; if reception is weak, an external antenna with a higher gain can be used via the MHF connection.

Want to add powerful and easy-to-use Bluetooth Low Energy to your wearable FLORA project?
With BLE now included in modern smartphones and tablets, it's fun to add wireless connectivity.
So what you really need is the new Adafruit Flora Bluefruit LE!
The Flora Bluefruit LE makes it easy to add Bluetooth Low Energy connectivity to your Flora.
Sew 4 traces (or solder 4 wires) and boom! Bluetooth Low Energy!
Get started quickly with the Bluefruit app!
With the Bluefruit iOS app or Android app, you can quickly prototype your interactive project using your iOS or Android phone/tablet as a controller. We have a choice of colours, quaternion/accelerometer/gyro/magnetometer or positioning (GPS), and an 8-button control gamepad. After connecting to the Bluefruit, you can send commands wirelessly in less than 10 minutes.
Advanced hackers will be very happy if they use the standard Nordic UART RX/TX connection profile. In this profile, the Bluefruit acts as a data line that can "transparently" transmit back and forth from your iOS or Android device. You can use our iOS app or Android app, or write your own to communicate with the UART service.
You can also do much more!
The Bluefruit can also function like an HID keyboard (for devices that support BLE HID)
Can become a BLE heart rate monitor (a standard profile for BLE) - you just need to add the circuit for pulse detection
Turn it into a UriBeacon, the Google standard for Bluetooth LE beacons. Just switch it on and the Bluefruit will beep a URL to all nearby devices with the UriBeacon app installed.
Built-in over-the-air bootload function so we can keep you up to date with the hottest new firmware. Use any Android or iOS device to receive and install updates!
This is the same module and firmware as the Adafruit BLE UART Friend but in a nice rounded shape,
so you can switch between the two and have the same working code. This Bluefruit LE has no
hardware flow control pins (Flora doesn't need them), so it's best used with a microcontroller with serial
hardware support
Check out the
tutorial for all the details you could ever dream of!

Why use Adafruit's module?
There are many BLE modules out there, with varying quality in both HW design and firmware. So why should you choose this one?
One of the biggest advantages of the Adafruit Bluefruit LE family is that we have written all of the firmware that runs on the devices ourselves from the ground up. We control every line of code that runs on our modules... and so we're not at the mercy of third-party vendors who may or may not be interested in keeping their code up to date or meeting our customers' needs.
Because we have control of the product, we can add features that are important to our customers, we can resolve issues that arise without having to beg third-party vendors, and we can even completely swap out Bluetooth SoCs if we need to!
