mbed and NFC/RFID Starter Pack

Kick - start your mbed and NFC/RFID journey with this amazing starter pack! It's packed with all the essentials you need to get going right away. The pack includes a fully assembled and tested mbed with a mini - B USB cable and reference cards. There's also an NFC/RFID breakout board featuring the PN532, an RFID card with 1K programmable EEPROM, a full - sized white breadboard, 40 pieces of 75mm long male/male jumper wires, a standard blue & white 16x2 character LCD with contrast potentiometer and header, a diffused 5mm RGB LED with 3 x 560 ohm resistors, an analog temperature sensor (TMP36), a piezo buzzer, 2 breadboard - friendly 10K trim potentiometers, and 5 tactile pushbuttons. Additionally, you'll get access to a blog post on mbed, a cookbook page, a stack, and a PN532 breakout board page.

Using this starter pack is easy. First, take out the mbed and connect it to your computer using the mini - B USB cable. Then, start adding components to the breadboard. The NFC/RFID breakout board can be connected using the jumper wires. For the LCD, make sure to adjust the contrast potentiometer to get a clear display. When working with the RGB LED, use the resistors to prevent over - current. The temperature sensor and piezo buzzer can be used for various projects. As for the trim potentiometers and pushbuttons, they add interactivity to your circuits. When it comes to maintenance, keep the components in a dry and clean place. Avoid bending the pins of the components and be gentle when inserting or removing them from the breadboard. If you have any questions, refer to the blog post and cookbook page included in the pack for more guidance.
