These devices, which allow makers and engineers to build the bridge from systems to the physical world, can be used in multiple applications, for example, in PCB designs and IoT projects that require additional capabilities such as wireless communications, including Bluetooth and Wi-Fi; MEMS devices such as three-axis gyroscopes, accelerometers and microphones, or motor control.
Compatible with the dimensions of Arduino R3, the chipKIT Pmod shield allows connection to more than 80 Pmods, increasing the capabilities of system boards and, consequently, the functionality of designs and application possibilities.
The protector has five Digilent Pmod 2x6 connectors, one I²C 2x4 connector and optional pull-up resistors for I²C bus.
A key product in this range is the Pmod IOXP I²C port expansion board and adapter for the Arduino Uno development kit. The Pmod IOXP is an I/O expansion module that provides up to 19 GPIO pins from a serial I²C bus connection, as well as a keypad matrix decoder.
Other Digilent products available at RS include: the chipKIT Pro MX7 PIC32MX development kit; the Arty Z7 Zynq-7000 development board; the Digital Discovery logic analyzer; video and display accessories such as JTAG cables, which enable high-speed programming and debugging of Xilinx FPGA and SoC devices from a host PC; a 128 x 32 pixel monochrome OLED display; an I2S stereo digital audio output; and a series of Pmod modules with current, humidity, and temperature detectors.
