ULX3S 12F FPGA board
ULX3S 12F FPGA board

The ULX3S is a fully open source, compact, robust and affordable FPGA board equipped with a balanced spectrum of extra components and expansions.

 

The ULX3s offers a wide selection of useful features and interfaces that enable it to serve as a broad spectrum module for installation in complex devices.
Onboard peripherals such as SDRAM, USB, Digital video out, FM/ASK antenna, ADC and DAC can make it audio/video powerhouse for signal processing and synthesis, motor control or SDR cases. You can emulate arcade machines or retro computers like Minimig (Amiga) or modern systems like F32C (MIPS/RISCV). It has 56 GPIO pins, all routed as differential pairs and a PMOD compatible pinout, opening it to a wide range of expansion options. If you are just starting with FPGA, you can also use the ULX3S as powerful Arduino and program it using Arduino IDE in seconds.

 

ULX3S uses powerful Lattice Semiconductor ECP5 series FPGA chip supported by the latest open-source toolchains. This makes the ULX3S one of the most powerful and desirable platforms for FPGA enthusiasts available today. ULX3S comes equipped with onboard WiFi, display, buttons, LEDs and storage. Flash it using the WiFi connection (over-the-air update), or with one of the bitstreams stored on SD card and browsed by onboard OLED display and buttons. Due to its battery-backed RTC, it can power down completely and wake up only on certain events making it useful for low power applications.

 

It has been actively developed since 2016 and is the result of collaboration between Radiona.org / Zagreb Makerspace and FER – Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing – University of Zagreb, Croatia.

1-channel relay board with easyC
1-channel relay board with easyC

Did you ever wanted to turn on and off a device that needs large current or voltage? Whether operating on DC or AC, a relay is what you need. A relay is actually an electronic switch that is activated by a signal we send from a Dasduino or Arduino. This module further simplifies the whole process because it contains everything you need for the relay to work, and you just have to connect it to the microcontroller and power supply. You don’t have to think about voltages and currents, insulation between high and low voltage or grounding, everything is already taken care of on the board.

 

This board has easyC connector. Thanks to easyC ecosystem, this board can be connected using off-the-shelf cables, without soldering. Controlling the is as simple as it gets, too.

Servo motor TowerPro SG90

Stepper motor with driver
Stepper motor with driver

If you’ve ever wanted to make something with a stepper motor, this is a great place to start. A stepper motor is a type of motor that can control its revolutions very precisely, so it is used for precise control and positioning.

This set comes with a small stepper motor and a driver for it. Namely, the stepper motor needs to be controlled in an exact way in order to get what you want from it (which is a precise turn), so the driver helps us with that. Also, the driver provides enough current to turn the motor.

This stepper motor driver enables the control of a stepper motor that does not need more than 800mA of current and operates at a voltage of up to 14V. In addition to the driver, it also has built-in LEDs that indicate which phase of the motor is currently active.

NEMA17 stepper motor

NEMA17 is a smaller stepper motor with high precision. Often we find it in 3D printers and small CNC machines since it has sufficient power to move small items. You will also use it in the 3D printer, CNC, robot or for the accurate control of anything which turns or moves.

We recommend the A4988 stepper motor driver.

Out of stock Buzzer speaker
Buzzer speaker

In a buzzer speaker, current is run through a coil of wire that produces a magnetic field. The flexible ferromagnetic disc is attracted to the coil when current is flowing through it and returns to a “rest” position when current is not flowing through the coil. The sound from the buzzer speaker is produced by moving a ferromagnetic disc in a similar way to a cone in a speaker.
