The APDS-9960 is a small sensor that measures four things at once. It recognizes the movements you make in front of it (up, down, left, right) and it can identify the proximity of the object, so you have two more movements: to the sensor and from the sensor. In addition, it has an ambient light sensor and a color sensor which gives red, green, and blue (RGB) colors as output. This sensor with many features was even built into the Samsung Galaxy S5 smartphone.

All gestures are detected at a distance of 10 to 20 cm and it has built-in UV and IR filters to make sure it won’t be confused by other sources of light. Connected using well-known I2C communication.

On this module, there is a component, a phototransistor, which is capable of detecting infrared radiation. Since fire emits a large amount of infrared radiation, this sensor will detect it, but that is not its only application. Wherever there are IR (infrared) waves, this sensor will detect them, including from solar radiation.

The simple sensor has easyC connectors, which enables quick and easy connection with Dasduino microcontroller boards.

Unleash the potential of digital control with our Rotary Encoder breakout board. Compact and powerful, this module makes working with rotary encoders easy. Rotary encoders are versatile input devices that convert angular position or button movement into digital signals. With the ability to detect direction and distance of rotation, they are perfect for controlling a variety of equipment such as volume knobs on audio devices, motors in robotics, or navigation controls in user interfaces.

Our breakout board simplifies the use of rotary encoders by utilizing easyC technology, making it easily connectable with microcontrollers or other circuits. It accepts input from a rotary encoder and translates it into signals that your microcontroller can interpret. In addition to the aforementioned rotary encoder module, the board also features a small ATTiny404 microcontroller, as well as a switch for selecting the I2C address. This breakout board comes with 2 easyC connectors for easy plug-and-play into the easyC system. If you don’t want to use easyC, the module can also be used via standard headers.

This module is a phototransistor that is capable of detecting infrared radiation. Since fire radiates a large number of infrared rays, this sensor will detect them, but this is not its only application. Wherever there are infrared waves, the sensor will detect them (including those from the sun). Using the built-in comparator on its outputs gives either digital (HIGH / LOW) or analog (0V-5V) signals, depending on the intensity of the IR radiation.

Fuel gauge is a special type of accessory for lithium batteries that very precisely measures the state of the battery. This includes current voltage [mV], state of charge [%] and probably most interestingly: remaining capacity in the battery [mAh]. It is used with 1S batteries, and provides all this information via the I2C interface.

On our board you can find easyC connectors which allow I2C communication with microcontroller. Also, there is a JST input for any pouch battery you can find in our offer, as well as quick connect terminal connector for input if your source doesn’t have JST connector.

RTC (Real Time Clock) is a device that carefully and precisely tracks time and dates. It is extremely precise, so it is more suitable for long-term time tracking than clocks on microcontrollers. This breakout can work with an extremely low current and thanks to the alarm feature and interrupt pin, it will allow a microcontroller to enter sleep mode until its awaken by this RTC.

It has a built-in battery holder (battery not included) and even if power is lost, real-time tracking won’t be affected.
