Raspberry Pi Pico Basic Kit

Description

Raspberry Pi Pico Basic Kit is a getting started kit for beginners who want to explore the new Raspberry Pi Pico. The kit includes breadboard, Basic Input/Output devices like Push Buttons, LEDs and Resistors to understand the basic working principle of Raspberry Pi Pico. After a little success with these IO Devices, it will be interesting to explore more about it. It is very useful during development of any Raspberry Pi Pico Projects.

Sensors:

Once we get to know about basics, we can use various sensors like IR Sensor, LDR, Ultrasonic Sensor and PIR Sensor interfacing with the Raspberry Pi Pico.

Actuators:

Actuators are output devices that can be controlled by the Pico. For the basic learning purpose, we included TB6612FNG H-Bridge Motor Driver (better than L298N). With this we can control Motors, Fan, etc. The Motor driver supports PWM Speed control upto 100KHz. It can also be used with mini DC Water pump included with the kit. With this you can make automatic plant watering system (soil moisture sensor not included).

Servo Motor is also a most used actuator in electronics. The kit includes SG90 Servo with it.

Components:

Along with these the kit contains various components like 7805 Voltage Regulator to regulate power supply for the Pico and other devices. Alligator Clips with wire for testing. Various LEDs and Resistors. Potentiometer for Analog Input, Breadboard and RGB LED for cool projects.

Display:

The kit comes with a 0.91 inch OLED I2C Display for displaying any sensor values and learn about I2C Communication devices.
