MT3608 regulator boards are compact DC-DC boost converter modules designed to increase low DC input voltages to higher regulated outputs. The MT3608 is a step-up (boost) regulator: VOUT must be higher than VIN; it cannot step down. Typical input range is 2 V to 24 V, with adjustable outputs up to approximately 28 V. Continuous output current is typically 1A (2 A max peak), depending on boost ratio and cooling. Efficiency can reach about 90% under optimal operating conditions.

Specifications

• Input Voltage: 2 - 24V
• Output Voltage: 2 - 28V
• USB-C
• Max Output Current: 1A (Continious)
• Max Output Current: 2A (Max)
• Chipset: MT3608
• Efficiency: 96%

Everyone loves the 1602-character LCD, it is cheap and works out of the box! But the need for 6 to 10 GPIOs is the pain :) It takes most of the GPIO of Arduino and other microcontrollers. Now with this I2C or Two wires interface LCD, you will save a lot of GPIO for your sensor and motor control.

This is a great blue backlight LCD display. As the pin resources of the Arduino controller are limited, your project may not be able to use a normal LCD shield after being connected with a certain quantity of sensors or SD cards. However, with this I2C interface LCD module, you can realize data display via only 2 wires. If you already have I2C devices in your project, you can still program this LCD with the correct I2C address. It is fantastic for Arduino-based projects. 

Note: If the display is not clear (or blank), try to adjust the contrast level by tuning the onboard potentiometer.

Features

• I2C Address: 0x27 
• Backlight (White character on Blue background) 
• Supply voltage: 5V 
• Size: 82x35x18 mm 
• Come with I2C interface

Cheese Head Machine Screws have a round cylindrical head with a flat top, usually have a slot drive. Slotted screw heads are perhaps the oldest and most common variety; a linear slot in the head accepts a standard screwdriver, which is also called a flat-head screwdriver. Machine screws have finer threads than wood screws. They are designed to be used in conjunction with a nut or tapped hole. Zinc plated

Brass standoffs are essential components in electronic projects, particularly in applications where circuit boards need to be securely mounted within an enclosure or chassis.

Here's how they are typically used:

1. Board Mounting: Brass standoffs are used to elevate and secure printed circuit boards (PCBs) within an electronic enclosure or chassis. They provide a stable platform for the PCB, preventing it from coming into contact with conductive surfaces that could cause short circuits.

2. Mechanical Support: Standoffs act as spacers between the PCB and the mounting surface, ensuring proper ventilation and preventing heat buildup. This is crucial for maintaining the integrity of sensitive electronic components.

3. Isolation: Brass standoffs help to electrically isolate the PCB from the chassis or enclosure. This isolation is essential for preventing electrical interference, reducing the risk of noise and signal degradation, and enhancing overall circuit performance.

4. Easy Access: Standoffs facilitate easy access to the PCB for maintenance, repairs, or upgrades. By raising the board above the mounting surface, technicians can easily reach components and make necessary adjustments without disassembling the entire system.

5. Vibration Dampening: In applications where vibration is a concern, brass standoffs can help dampen vibrations transmitted to the PCB, thereby reducing the risk of component failure or solder joint fatigue over time.

6. Grounding: Depending on the design, brass standoffs can also be used as grounding points for the PCB. By connecting the standoffs to the ground plane on the PCB, they provide a convenient and reliable grounding solution.

Overall, brass standoffs play a crucial role in ensuring the structural integrity, electrical isolation, and proper functioning of electronic systems. Their versatility and reliability make them indispensable components in a wide range of electronic projects.

This handy little USB thingymajig allows you to power your Raspberry Pi Touch Display 2 from a USB port, keeping your GPIO pins free for HATs or jumper wires.

The Raspberry Pi Touch Display 2 (7" or 5") is powered by your Pi's GPIO pins using the provided cable and that weird block connector. If you're using a HAT on your Raspberry Pi, fitting this connector can be tricky, and sometimes impossible depending on the HAT's socket type. Sure you could use a stacking header passed through the HAT (if the HAT supports that), but we wanted something more compact that would work in every situation.

Simply plug the Touch Display 2 connector into the three pins on the USB module, pop that into any USB port on your Raspberry Pi, and that's about it! The module has a low header that makes it pretty much impossible to fit the display connector the wrong way around, and it's labelled as well, just in case you need extra reassurance.

You can also just use this as a generic 5V USB breakout, giving you 5V and GND pins to feed your other 5V things.

Works with the 7" and 5" versions of the Touch Display 2.

Features

• USB power breakout for Raspberry Pi Touch Display 2 - Compatible with 7" and 5" versions
• Power your Touch Display 2 without blocking your GPIO header for HATs
• Low pins and pin labels to avoid fitting the wrong way around
• Pre-assembled - no soldering required
• Compatible with Raspberry Pi 5/4/3/3B+/2/1
• Black PCB with smooth, rounded edges
• Designed in the UK by ePlop!
