These small steppers are a great way to get things moving, especially when positioning and repeatability is a concern. When using a current limiting driver such as the Easydriver or Big Easydriver, a 12 volt power supply can be used as...

These are original Sharp color TFT-LCDs designed to be used in the PlayStation Portable. 4.3" of beautiful 24-bit color with powerful LED backlight. 480x272 pixels - each pixel has RGB control. Data interface is 24-bit so start looking...

This is a simple 2-terminal microswitch, with a 36mm actuator. This switch has a great 'clicky' sound to it, and a nice tactile feel. We used these while lighting up a cupboard at home using led lighting. It can handle anything between...

Fingerprint scanners are awesome. Why use a key when you have one right at the tip of your finger? Unfortunately, they’re usually unreliable or difficult to implement. Well not anymore! We’ve found this great fingerprint module from...

Even though the Tron movies have been out for a while, electroluminescence is still the coolest thing since sliced bread. The only downer is carrying around a battery pack and bulky external inverter. Good news, we've found a slim...

This load sensor, sometimes called a strain gauge, is the same one found in digital bathroom scales (you know, the ones you use in January for your New Year’s resolutions, and then forget about a month later). This sensor can measure up...

EL wire, or electroluminescent wire, is a flexible wire coated in phosphor. Apply the appropriate voltage and it lights up! It looks a lot like a thin flexible neon tube. They come in many bright colors (check below for other colors) and...

E-paper displays are rad. But those 26-pin SMD connectors can be a real pain to solder, so we put together a breakout board to help you integrate this very cool technology into your next project. This board breaks out all of the major...

This is a simple breakout board for the MQ - 3, MQ - 4, MQ - 6, MQ - 7, and MQ - 8 gas sensors. With the Gas Sensor Breakout you will be able to utilize each oversized, oddly spaced pins featured on every MQ gas sensor product. This is...

This is a breakout board for the SC16IS750, a handy chip used to convert I 2 C or SPI serial signals to a single-channel, high-performance UART. As an application example: we use this chip on our WiFly Shield to allow an Arduino to...

Have you ever needed to know if a voltage coming from a sensor is within a specific voltage window? This little breakout board allows you to hook up an analog signal, define your voltage window, and it will tell you (digitally - HIGH or...

This is a SparkFun exclusive! These are 155mm long jumpers with male connectors on both ends. Use these to jumper from any female header on any board, to any other female header. Combine these with our female to female jumpers to create...
