Kitronik ZIP Halo for the BBC micro:bit
Key Features: Halo has 24 individually addressable ZIP LEDs. Compatible with Adafruit NeoPixel and other WS2812B driver code. Built in blocking diode Halo bolts directly onto the BBC micro:bit. The board also has extension connector pads. Add some colour to your next coding project with our new Halo board for the BBC micro:bit. The Halo has 24 ZIP LEDs, which are individually addressable full colour LEDs. This means that each LED can display a huge spectrum of colours, allowing amazing colourful effects to be achieved.The Halo bolts directly onto the BBC micro:bit using five bolts which are secure and robust. The board also has extension connector pads (0.1” pitch) allowing more ZIP LEDs to be connected. The P1 and P2 micro:bit pins are also broken out to 0.1" pads along with power and GND. This allows for additional connections to low power components such as sensors and switches.The Halo takes a supply voltage of 3.5V-5V and provides a regulated power supply to BBC micro:bit. Power can be connected using the JST input using a 3xAAA battery holder, or LiPo battery, or JST lead. Alternatively you can solder a power supply directly to the solder pads on the PCB.Item Specifics1 - Halo for the BBC micro:bit5 - Counter Sunk M3 x6mm ScrewsDiameter: 80mmHeight: 3.2mmHeight With micro:bit: 10mmPCB Thickness: 1.5mmPCB Component Count: 24 ZIP LEDsVoltage Nominal(V): 4VVoltage Range(V): 3.5V-5VCurrent Max at Nominal Voltage(mA): 50mA at 5V per LEDDatasheet
