1. What are the most common development board accessories?

The most common accessories for development boards include breadboards for easy prototyping and jumper wires to connect components. You'll also find a wide range of sensors, like temperature and motion sensors, and modules such as relays and motor drivers. A reliable power supply module is also essential for most projects, ensuring your board runs smoothly and has stable power.

2. Are these compatible with Arduino and ESP boards?

Yes, the vast majority of our development board accessories are designed to be universally compatible with popular platforms like Arduino, ESP32, and ESP8266. These accessories typically connect via standard GPIO pins, I2C, or SPI interfaces. Always check the product description for specific voltage requirements (3.3V vs. 5V) to ensure a perfect match for your board.

3. What is a USB to UART converter used for?

A USB to UART converter is a powerful tool that enables serial communication between your computer and a microcontroller. It's essential for programming development boards that don't have a built-in USB interface, such as the ESP-01. This converter is also incredibly useful for debugging projects by allowing you to view serial data from your device on your computer’s terminal.

4. Do you offer adapter cables and headers?

Absolutely! We stock a comprehensive range of adapter cables and headers to meet all your project needs. You'll find everything from standard male and female pin headers for breadboarding to specialized JST connectors and ribbon cables. These are perfect for making secure connections between boards, sensors, and other peripherals, ensuring your custom electronics projects are reliable and easy to assemble.

5. Can I use these modules for custom IoT projects?

Yes, these modules are perfect for building custom IoT projects from the ground up. Our selection includes essential connectivity modules like WiFi and Bluetooth for connecting your device to the internet or other gadgets. Combine these with our wide array of sensors—for temperature, humidity, or motion—to gather data from the real world, creating powerful and intelligent connected devices.

Module Connection Diagrams

USB to Serial Converter → Arduino Pro Mini

FTDI / USB-Serial → Arduino Pro Mini --------------------------------------------- VCC (5V/3.3V) → VCC GND → GND TXD → RXI RXD → TXO DTR → DTR (auto reset)

DS3231 RTC Module → Arduino / ESP32 / Raspberry Pi

USB to TTL for ESP32-CAM

USB-TTL Converter → ESP32-CAM ----------------------------- 5V → 5V GND → GND TX → U0R RX → U0T IO0 → GND (for programming mode)

Tip: Keep voltage levels in mind — Raspberry Pi and ESP32 use 3.3V logic.
