Do you have any devices with USB C connections that don't seem to power or work when plugged into another USB C port? Chances are, the designers skimped a few pennies or just forgot to put in the two 5.1K CC resistors required for C-to-C connections at 5V. It can drive you batty because some computers care and some don't! That's why we designed the Adafruit USB Type...

This HAT-compatible GPIO mapper is a takes your classic RP2-based Pico style dev boards and shimmies them around into the 2x20 connector featured on the Raspberry Pi computers. This enables you to plug the hundreds of...

Solenoids are a little like cats: if your project has one solenoid you'll probably stick with just one and in such cases our single MOSFET driver will work well. But if you have more than one solenoid, it's going to be anywhere from 2 to 24. Why? Maybe people just love their purring clicky-clacking. And driving a lot of solenoids is kind of a pain: they all need...

If you want a general-purpose USB Power Delivery supply, the official Raspberry Pi 45W USB-C power supply makes for a good quality PD supply that provides high current at a large option of voltages, including 12V which is not always supported, and 5A and 5V which also is a bit rare but makes it great for USB-powering of LEDs and servos/motors. Works wonderfully with...

This version comes with the encoder pre-soldered...

Like Missy Elliot, we like to "put our [Feather] down, flip it and reverse it" and that's exactly what we've done with this new development board. It's basically our ESP32-S2 TFT Feather but with the 240x135 color TFT display on the back-side not the front-side. That makes it great for panel-mounted projects, particularly since we've also got some space for 3 buttons...

The ANO rotary encoder wheel is a funky user interface element, reminiscent of the original clicking scroll wheel interface on the first iPods. It's a nifty kit, but the pin-out is a little odd - and there are a ton of pins needed to connect to the rotary encoder and five button switches. This Stemma QT breakout makes all that frustration go away. The onboard...
