Overview

PLX-28122 Parallax Whats a Microcontroller? Parts Kit

The What's a Microcontroller Parts Kit provides all the electronic components you need to comlete the activities in the What's a Microcontroller? text on a BASIC Stamp 2 development board. Also handy for the Propeller C - Simple Circuits Tutorial.

If you want to learn to make your own BASIC Stamp inventions, learn how these common components work as you go step-by-step through 40 hands-on activities in the 350-page What’s a Microcontroller? text (available for purchas or as a free download). Side-by-side schematics and wiring diagrams give you confidence in building the circuits with the Parts Kit components on a BASIC Stamp 2 development board, and each example program is followed by a detailed explanation so you learn as you go. Here's what you will learn to do:

Features:

  • Build simple circuits with schematics and wiring diagrams
  • Write programs in PBASIC to control the circuits
  • Send signals by blinking LEDs
  • Sense contact with pushbuttons
  • Read a dial using a potentiometer
  • Measure light with a phototransistor
  • Control motion with a servo motor
  • Play tunes on a piezo speaker
  • Display data on a 7-segment LED
  • Combine several circuits to prototype an invention

Kit Contents:

  • Input components: pushbuttons, single-turn potentiometer, phototransistor
  • Output: LEDs, 7-segment display, servo, piezo speaker
  • Passive components: resistors, capacitors, jumper wires
  • Integrated circuits: digital potentiometer, transistor
  • Complete components listing

Completing the activities with this Parts Kit requires a BASIC Stamp 2 development board option:

    - Board of Education Full Kit (Serial) or (USB) which includes a BASIC Stamp 2 module
    - BASIC Stamp HomeWork Board (available only as 10-packs)

Convenient complete kit options:

    - BASIC Stamp Activity Kit features the BASIC Stamp HomeWork Board
    - BASIC Stamp Discovery Kit (Serial with USB Adapter) features the Board of Education
    - BASIC Stamp Discovery Kit (USB only) features the Board of Education
