An IC (Integrated Circuit) socket allows you to insert and remove chips easily from an assembled kit or project This item contains 3 of the 8 pin 0.3" wide version. Best used with chips that have 8 pins (2x4) and have 0.3" pin spacing. These are often...

Non-invasive current transformer, use this sensor clip to build your own Personal Energy Monitor . Model: T17－05 Note:Color might change due to different batchs.  

These chrome-plated metal buttons are rugged and look real good while doing it! Simply drill a 16mm hole into any material up to 1/2" thick and you can fit these in place, there's even a rubber gasket to keep water out of the enclosure. On the front of...

An IC (Integrated Circuit) socket allows you to insert and remove chips easily from an assembled kit or project This item contains 3 of the 28 pin 0.6" wide version. Best used with chips that have 28 pins (2x14) and have 0.6" pin spacing. We also have 0...

The DHT22 is a basic, low-cost digital temperature and humidity sensor. It uses a capacitive humidity sensor and a thermistor to measure the surrounding air, and spits out a digital signal on the data pin (no analog input pins needed). Its fairly simple...

Design a clock, timer or counter into your next project using our pretty 4-digit seven-segment display. These bright crisp displays are good for adding numeric output. Besides the four 7-segments, there are decimal points on each digit and an extra wire...

Make your own USB connections without slicing apart a USB cable and soldering those thin wires inside. These DIY "USB shells" are available in USB A plug, micro B, mini B and USB A socket. Each shell comes with a two-part snap plastic shell and a proper...

If you have a project where you'd like to be able to detach the wiring, this wire will fit the bill. Its a JST 2.5mm 'free hanging' cable assembly that latches strongly. One wire is marked with a white dashed line. You can't plug these in backwards. This...

Diffused 5mm tri-color LEDs with separate red, green and blue LED chips inside! Nice indicator, and fun to color-swirl. 60 degree viewing angle.  These are Common-Anode type which means you connect one pin to 5V or so and then tie the other three...

This power jack is designed to fit 2.1mm power plugs snugly and securely. Perfect for adding a power connector to your project. We went for the more expensive "thin pin" type which snap into breadboards or perfboards. They will work where "thick pin"...

Add a bunch of high-power outputs to a microcontroller system with chainable shift registers. These chips take a serial input (SPI) of 1 byte (8 bits) and then output those digital bits onto 8 pins. You can chain them together so putting three in a row...

These chrome-plated metal buttons are rugged and look real good while doing it! Simply drill a 16mm hole into any material up to 1/2" thick and you can fit these in place, there's even a rubber gasket to keep water out of the enclosure. On the front of...

Sensor tip is 2" Chip: DS18B20; Voltage: 3.0~5.5V Temperature range: -55'C~+125'C (-67'F~+257'F) Output wires: Red(VCC), Yellow (DATA), Black(GND)

This mini-kit makes it easy to mount a PSP/Xbox-like thumb joystick to your project. The thumbstick is an analog joystick - more accurate and sensitive than just 'directional' joysticks - with a 'press in to select' button. Since it's analog, you'll need...

The Raspberry Pi has an on-board audio jack, which is super handy for all kinds of sound effects and speech, just plug and go! However, for when you want better audio for music playback, a USB audio card can greatly improve the sound quality and volume...

Bosch has stepped up their game with their new BME280 sensor, an environmental sensor with temperature, barometric pressure and humidity! This sensor is great for all sorts of indoor environmental sensing and can even be used in both I2C and...

Round and round and round they go! 12 ultra bright smart LED NeoPixels are arranged in a circle with 1.5" (37mm) outer diameter. The rings are 'chainable' - connect the output pin of one to the input pin of another. Use only one microcontroller pin to...

5V Four Channel SSR Solid Relay Module 240V / 2A - High Level Trigger - For Arduino Specifications Max. LoadAC: 240V Input Voltage: 5V DC Trigger Current: 2mA Dimensions: 2.28 in x 2.2 in x 0.94 in (5.8 cm x 5.6 cm x 2.4 cm) Weight: 1.34 oz (38 g)

This here is a 10 pack of the classic 1N4001 power blocking diode. These are good for reverse polarity protection (put it between your DC power jack and circuitry to avoid a negative-voltage that would zap your delicate electronics), kickback protection...

Need some really bright LEDs? We are big fans of these clear green LEDs, in fact we use them exclusively in our kits. They are very bright and have about 20degree LED beam. They go easily into a breadboard and will add that extra zing to your project. ...
