Product Details
Get everything you need to start your adventure with Explorer HAT Pro or Explorer pHAT! This amazing parts kit includes LEDs, a buzzer, resistors, capacitors, rotary potentiometers, a shift register, jumper wires, and an analog temperature sensor. With this kit, you can build cool projects like a PIN entry system, traffic lights, a visual thermometer, or a dazzling blinky light show using the shift register's eight output channels for perfect LED control. Features: 16 LEDs (4 each of yellow, red, blue, and green), 1 piezo transducer (usable as a buzzer), 10 470 Ohm resistors, 5 10k Ohm resistors for pulling up Explorer HAT Pro’s outputs, 2 10k rotary potentiometers, 1 SN74HC595N shift register, 2 0.1uF ceramic capacitors, 1 TMP36 analog temperature sensor, and 20 - way male - to - male jumper wires (100mm long).
Using this Explorer HAT Pro parts kit is a breeze. First, figure out what project you want to build, like a PIN entry system or traffic lights. Gather all the components you need for that project from the kit. Connect the LEDs to the shift register's output channels to create a blinky light show. If you're building a visual thermometer, use the analog temperature sensor. When using the resistors, make sure to pick the right ones - use the 470 Ohm resistors for general purposes and the 10k Ohm resistors to pull up Explorer HAT Pro’s outputs. Be careful when handling the components, especially the delicate sensors and the shift register. Avoid static electricity, which can damage them. Keep the parts in a dry and clean place to prevent corrosion. If you're not using the kit for a while, put the components back in their proper places. That way, you'll be ready to start another exciting project whenever you want.
