Description:

The SparkFun moto:bit is a fully loaded "carrier" board for the micro:bit that, when combined with the micro:bit, provides you with a fully functional robotics platform. The moto:bit offers a simple, beginner-friendly robotics controller capable of operating a basic robotics chassis. Onboard each moto:bit are multiple I/O pins capable of hooking up servos, sensors and other circuits. At the flip of the switch you can get your micro:bit moving!

The moto:bit connects to the micro:bit via an edge connector at the top of the board, making setup easy. This creates a handy way to swap out micro:bits for programming, while still providing reliable connections to all of the different pins on the micro:bit. They have also included a basic barrel jack on the moto:bit that is capable of providing power to anything you connect to the carrier board.

Features:

• Edge connector for easy use with the micro:bit
• Full H-Bridge for control of two motors
• Control servo motors
• I2C port for extending functionality
• Power and battery management onboard for the micro:bit
