Flick through all that’s new right here!
NEW PRODUCTS THIS WEEK
Adafruit RS232 Pal – Two Channel UART to RS-232 Stage Shifters – MAX3232E: Should you’re trying to interface with telco, retro or industrial tools you’ll most likely run into RS-232 interfaces. The Adafruit RS232 Pal – Two Channel UART to RS-232 Stage Shifters is your pal in such circumstances, providing you with two duplex channels of degree shifting and taking good care of the excessive/damaging voltage technology all in a low value breakout board. We use the trusty MAX3232E, a traditional chip that’s a part of the MAX232 lineage so it would work nice for all of your RS-232 wants, as much as 250Kbps.
Adafruit Infrared IR Distant Transceiver – STEMMA JST PH 2mm – 940nm Emitter + 38KHz Receiver: We’ve acquired a high-powered infrared emitter board, and a super-sensitive infrared distant receiver board – however why purchase two boards when you possibly can decide up one which does each? This board is the Adafruit Infrared Tranceiver breakout, which might transmit and receiver 940nm distant management knowledge in a single helpful solder-free bundle.
Please Notice: to make this board simple to make use of, we’ve got each solder-able breakout pads and in addition a JST PH 4-pin cable. We frequently use JST PH cables for I2C however this board doesn’t use I2C – the white wire is knowledge from a microcontroller to be emitted over the IR LED, the inexperienced wire is demodulated IR distant sign knowledge to a microcontroller. The black wire is floor, pink wire is 3V~5V energy and logic degree.
Adafruit USB Kind C Vertical Breakout – Downstream Connection: Throw out all these Mini and Micro B USB cables you will have in a plastic bin; the subsequent technology of USB connectors is right here with USB C! You’ll begin to see these connectors pop up on all types of gadgets because the trade strikes from micro B or lightening to the brand new customary. Effectively, at the least till the subsequent customary comes out.
That is the vertical model. We additionally carry a traditional ‘horizontal’ USB-C breakout right here.
Adafruit HDC3021 Precision Temperature & Humidity Sensor – STEMMA QT / Qwiic: We inventory a lot of Temperature/Humidity sensors, so that you’re most likely questioning why one other one? Effectively, this Adafruit HDC3021 Precision Temperature & Humidity Sensor breakout options the best accuracy & precision one we’ve see to date! It has the TI HDC302x sequence chip with typical 0.5% accuracy for the RH sensor (with 0.19% long-term drift) and ±0.1°C typical accuracy for the temperature sensor. All at a really good worth.
This sensor has a real I2C interface for straightforward interfacing with solely two wires (plus energy and floor!). That makes it preferable to the janky DHT11/DHT22 sensors. The sensor is 5V protected, so you need to use 1.8V to 5V energy and logic ranges with out the necessity for shifters, so you possibly can energy and talk with it utilizing any microcontroller or microcomputer. With 4 selectable I2C addresses, you possibly can have a number of sensors on one bus – in contrast to many different fixed-address T/RH sensors.
