The Bit Board allows users to combine the BBC Micro:Bit (not included) and building bricks (not included) together to create all sorts of amazing projects!

Like all Crazy Circuits components, the Bit Board snaps onto any building brick compatible component. Connect other Crazy Circuits components with the included Maker Tape! Use a ribbon cable to connect sensors, or directly plug a servo into the Bit Board. Use the built-in relay to control DC motors and devices.

In comparison to the Arduino platform, Micro:Bit offers a much more graphic way of working and programming with microcontrollers. The Bit Board Adapter was designed as a solution for teaching programming via Micro:Bit’s graphic interface, allowing it to work with our Crazy Circuits component platform.

A full kit version with loads of great components and materials included is available here.

Crazy Circuits Bit Board Basic

It is a clever concept to allow the use of Micro:Bit within LEGO constructions. It is a bit awkward to mount which could be improved. Also, the pin-out, connector description is quite barebones. It assumes a good deal of knowledge about Micro:Bit. For example, some connectors are taken up by buttons, built-in LEDs etc and if they accessed through this board, they can no-longer be utilized for the original purpose. LEDs should be turned off etc. A link/QR-code to an online resource to explain this would have been useful. Otherwise, the company, Brown Dog Gadgets has a very extensive set of examples, projects etc that can be utilized with this board and the kid. I have tweeted about the first construction my kids did with this system: https://twitter.com/ulugeyik/status/1510654185884340226

Crazy Circuits Bit Board Basic

tHE BOARD IS GREAT, THE SERVICE WAS EXCELLENT, but THE RELAY THAT IS ON THE BOARD WAS NOT WELL DOCUMENTED, AND AS WE FOUND OUT, THIS PIN 16 CANNOT BE DETACHED FROM THE RELAY. SO NOT FREELY AVAILABLE, BUT A MINOR ISSUE. WE HOPE, THAT ADDITIONAL BDG PARTS LIKE A CONNECTION BLOCK AND LEDS/SWITCHES WILL BE AVAILABLE SOON IN THE UK TO HAVE A COMPLETE SYSTEM. THANKS FOR BRINGING THIS TO THE UK FROM THE US AS DELIVERY WAS TOO EXPENSIVE TO ORDER FROM THERE.
