Description:
The timing belt originally comes from the automotive sector. Later developments of belt shapes resulted from the use of timing belts in scanners. Today, the 3D printer sector is able to benefit particularly from these developments. Toothed belt drives are a very common drive element for positioning in the 3D printer industry due to their high positioning accuracy and the small installation space required. Additional advantages include their low maintenance requirements and long service life.

This pre-built Edge Connector Breakout Board for the micro:bit gives access to all the important pins on the bottom edge of the micro:bit.
Looking to do more with your micro:bit? Unlock its potential with this pre-built version of our Edge Connector Breakout Board! This breakout board has been designed to offer an easy way to connect additional circuits and hardware to the pins on the edge of the micro:bit. It provides access to all of the micro:bit processor pins allowing a lot of extra functionality to be added. The datasheet (below) includes a helpful diagram explaining the function of every pin on the micro:bit.
This Edge Connector Breakout Board for the micro:bit gives access to all of the important pins on the bottom edge of the micro:bit. 21 pins are broken out in total; providing additional I/O lines, direct access to buttons A and B, the LED matrix outputs and the I2C bus. Please refer to the datasheet below for more details.
The micro:bit pins are broken out to a row of pin headers. These provide an easy way of connecting circuits using jumper wires. The SCL and SDA pins are separated at the edge of the board (solder pads) providing easy identification. The PCB includes a prototyping area with 3V, 0V and unconnected rows that can be soldered to. This allows the easy connection of switches, sensors and any pull-up or pull-down resistors etc. as required.
To use the breakout board the micro:bit should be inserted firmly into the connector as shown below:
Note:
- This product is supplied with straight double row PCB pin headers already soldered to the breakout board
