SparkFun Qwiic micro:bit Breakout

The SparkFun Qwiic micro:bit Breakout is a versatile board designed to enhance the functionality of the BBC micro:bit development platform. By providing access to more pins and facilitating connections to the I2C and SPI buses, this breakout board broadens the potential of the micro:bit. It is especially useful for intermediate and advanced users, enabling them to connect the micro:bit to breadboards and a wide range of Qwiic sensors, motors, LEDs and more. The standalone micro:bit offers three digital/analog input/output rings that can initially be used with alligator clips. However, the Qwiic micro:bit Breakout takes this a step further by breaking out all 21 GPIO, power, and ground-to-pin outs in a 2.54mm formation. Additionally, it incorporates two individual Qwiic Connectors, allowing you to tap into the full potential of your micro:bit.Please note that the micro:bit or headers are not included with this breakout and will need to be purchased separately. If you prefer a micro:bit breakout with pre-soldered headers, you may want to consider its equivalent version.The SparkFun Qwiic Connect System is an ecosystem of I2C sensors, actuators, shields, and cables designed to streamline the prototyping process and minimize errors. All Qwiic-enabled boards utilize a common 1mm pitch, 4-pin JST connector. This design not only saves PCB space but also ensures correct connections due to its polarized design.Get started with the Qwiic micro:bit Breakout Guide to learn more about how to use this product.
