Product description: Kitronik Inventor's Kit for BBC micro:bit
A set of electronic components that make it easy to start working with the BBC micro:bit . The set includes LEDs, a motor, connecting cables, buttons and resistors, thanks to which we can perform 10 ready-made experiments described in the book. The book contains information that illustrates in a simple and accessible way how to use the elements included in the set and how to program the BBC micro:bit module.
Main features:
- The kit does not require soldering.
- Possibility to perform 10 experiments with instructions prepared by the manufacturer.
- A breadboard makes it easier to create circuits.
- The expansion board included in the kit allows you to lead 21 connectors to 2.54 mm Goldpin pins from the module.
Attention! The kit does not include a micro:bit BBC. The device can be purchased separately . |

Inventor's Kit - you too can become an inventor!
The Kitronik Inventor's Kit is a great option for anyone who would like to learn about the world of electronics in a practical way. All experiments that can be performed using this kit have been designed with hobbyists in mind, as well as those who link their professional future with electronics. Based on the exercises included in the Inventor's Kit, we will learn, among other things, how to measure non-electric physical quantities, as well as what are the methods of controlling electric motors.
Inventor's Kit - learn about electronic systems in practice!
Electronic systems, both those found in devices that we deal with every day and in automated machines and robots for professional use, use exactly the same laws and principles. What's more, many of the individual components on the PCBs of these devices overlap with each other. By performing experiments from the Inventor's Kit, you can learn in a miniature version the principle of operation of various electronic systems that we can very often encounter indirectly in everyday life!
