Doing some serious development on any ARM-based platform, and tired of 'printf' plus an LED to debug? A proper JTAG/SWD HW debugger can make debugging more of a pleasure and less of a pain. It allows you to program your devices at the click of a button, read or write memory addresses or registers on a live system, temporarily halt program execution at a given location or condition, and much more. Essentially, it's a direct window...

The SEGGER J-Link EDU is identical to the more expensive J-Link BASE model except for the terms of use . If you're going to use your debugger strictly for personal, non-commercial projects, such as publishing open source designs that you're not selling, then you should get this EDU version! It's the same but significantly cheaper. On the other hand if you're making money, or plan to make money off your project, go and pick up the...

If you have a custom PCB design and you'd like to add a little Bluetooth Low Energy, this module is ultra compact and easy to use. It contains a Nordic nRF51822 Cortex M0 chip that comes integrated with BLE radio as well as most of the supporting circuitry and even a chip antenna. The whole thing is in a tin and comes with FCC, CE and TELEC certifications. Please note! The module comes with a blank chip - this is for people who are...

It contains a Nordic nRF52832 chip that comes integrated with BLE radio as well as most of the supporting circuitry and even a chip antenna. The whole thing comes with FCC, CE and TELEC certifications. Please note!   The module comes with a  blank  chip  - this is for people who are...

This adapter board is designed to make it easier to use ARM dev boards that use slimmer 2x5 (0.05"/1.27mm pitch) SWD cables for programming.  It's helpful for using products like the JTAGulator, STLink or SEGGER J-Link with tiny boards that use the 10-pin SWD programming connector, often Cortex M0 or M3's. This board comes with no cables.  It's really just the breakout board and some header if you need it - but is...

This adapter board is designed for adapting a 'classic' 2x10 (0.1"/2.54mm pitch) JTAG cable to a slimmer 2x5 (0.05"/1.27mm pitch) SWD Cable.  It's helpful for using products like the JTAGulator or SEGGER J-Link with tiny boards that use the 10-pin SWD programming connector. This board comes with no cables.  It's really just the adapter - but is super helpful when you want to use JTAG debugging on boards...

Interested in learning how Bluetooth Low Energy works down to the packet level? Debugging your own BLE hardware, and trying to spot where something is going wrong? Or maybe you're writing a custom application for your phone or tablet that needs to talk to existing BLE hardware, but you don't know how it works beneath the surface? We have the perfect tool for you! This Bluefruit LE Friend is programmed with a special firmware image that...

If you have a custom PCB design and you'd like to add a little Bluetooth Low Energy, this module is ultra compact and easy to use. It contains a Nordic nRF52840 Cortex M4 chip that comes integrated with BLE radio, USB as well as most of the supporting circuitry and even a chip antenna. The whole thing is in a tin and comes with FCC, CE and TELEC certifications. This chip is quite a beast, with a ton of FLASH, SRAM, peripherals and best of...

Adafruit seesaw is a near-universal converter framework which allows you to add and extend hardware support to any I2C-capable microcontroller or microcomputer. Instead of getting separate I2C GPIO expanders, ADCs, PWM drivers, etc, seesaw can be configured to give a wide range of capabilities. For example, our ATSAMD09 breakout with seesaw gives you 3 x 12-bit ADC inputs3 x 8-bit PWM outputs7 x GPIO with selectable pullup or pulldown1 x...

The Bluefruit LE Friend is your new BLE BFF! This USB-to-BLE board makes it easy to get your computer talking to your BLE enabled phone or tablet using a standard serial/UART connection. In it's simplest form, it works on the same principle as a common USB/Serial adapter (the FTDI Friend, for example!). Any data that you enter via your favorite terminal emulator on your development machine will be transferred over the air to the...

The Adafruit Feather nRF52 Pro is another Bluetooth Low Energy board for advanced projects and users who want to use a fully open source Bluetooth Low Energy 5.0 stack . It has a native-Bluetooth chip, the nRF52832, as well as built in USB Serial and battery charging!  We have other boards in the Feather family, check'em out here. This is a special Feather - unlike the rest of the Feather family, this board is not...
