Klip Halo V1.0 for the micro:bit [Discontinued]

The Klip Halo board breaks out the micro:bit's pins to pads that are ideal for use with crocodile clips and conductive thread

The Klip Halo breaks out all of the pins from the micro:bit to pads spaced around the edge of the Klip Halo.

The Klip Halo bolts directly onto the BBC micro:bit using five supplied screws which are secure and robust. The supplied mounting bar is used to fix the micro:bit to Klip Halo and already contains the required nuts as well as additional solder pads (PO, P1, P2, 3V & GND) should you require them.

Don't want to use screws? The V2 version uses a micro:bit edge connector and is available in JST battery connector or AA battery holder versions.

There are multiple power and ground pads so that the same pads don't have to be used for every part of your project, which is a handy feature if you are using Crocodile clips. Power is supplied to the board and the micro-bit via the rear-mounted JST connector.

When a micro:bit is connected to the Klip Halo, power can be supplied in multiple ways. These are via the USB connector on the micro:bit, the JST connector on the micro:bit or Klip Halo, or using the power rings on the Klip Halo. Depending on which option is used effects the maximum and minimum voltage that can be used and the amount of current that can be drawn from the rings on the Klip Halo.

Supply voltage should be between 1.95V and 3.6V with 3V being the recommended voltage.
