MAX31855 J-Type Thermocouple Sensor Breakout
SEN-30003-J
-
Breakout board for the MAX31855J digital thermocouple interface ICs by Maxim. Measured temperature range is -210C-1200C with known thermal characteristics and output resolution of 0.25C. This sensor supports a larger operating range (specifically in the negative range) than its predecessors, the MAX6674 and MAX6675, though it is not pin-pin compatible. This board is interfaced with a 0.1" 2x5 pin header (8-pins used), has four vertical mini thermocouple connectors and four mounting holes for standoffs and 4-40 screws. The SEN-30003 is interfaced via 3 or 4-wire SPI with a data-ready output for specific operating modes. An LDO and a high-speed level shifter are included to allow interfacing with microcontroller devices between 3.0V and 5V (all Arduinos, Raspberry PI, etc) without sacrificing device performance (many other level shifters reduce data rates to below 500 kHz).

MAX31856 Thermocouple Sensor Arduino Shield
SEN-30007-J
-
Quad channel thermocouple Arduino shield based on the MAX31856 universal digital thermocouple interface IC. This is an exciting update of the MAX31855, with improvements in resolution (19 vs 14 bits), on-board temperature reference (6 vs 4 bits), and compensation (fully compensated vs nonlinear correction required). The MAX31856 is interfaced via 4-wire SPI with options for interrupt triggering. An LDO and a high-speed level shifter are included on ALL device pins to allow interfacing with to any Arduino - both 3.3V and 5.0V variants - without sacrificing device performance in any operating condition.

ArgoBot Kit
ROB-00001
-
The ArgoBot Full Kit is a fully assembled robot and controls development platform. It is based on the Digilent chipKIT WF32(TM), a WiFi enabled development platform, and configured for LabVIEW targeting. Most importantly ArgoBot was designed with FIRST Robotics Competition teams in the front of our minds! Named after the FRC Team 1756 mascot, Argos, the ArgoBot development platform includes a fully-assembled, ready to drive mini WiFi enabled robot (about 8" x 5" x 4"), as well as tons of FRC controls tutorials and example code (LabVIEW VIs). Features included on the ArgoBot will look very familiar to anyone who has worked with National Instruments products (Compact RIO and RoboRIO) in the past. This includes three 5V Digital I/O modules (with jumpered pull-ups), three 5V analog inputs, and an I2C header. Example VIs have been streamlined to enable a 1-click configuration style to accelerate your development process. We also added a 2-channel motor driver that is used to supply the ArgoBot drive motors. Our ultimate goal is that everything you can build, control or implement on ArgoBot can be easily leveraged on your FRC bot! Complimenting its many electrical features, ArgoBot is easy to work with and easy to maintain. The chassis is a polycarbonate (the extremely tough stuff that is easy to drill and modify but easily takes bumps and bruises without cracking) case that is fully intact - meaning that ArgoBot doesn't just come with a case... it is a case! Clean-up and organization is simple - just close the case and turn off the power switch.

uSD Logger Shield
IFB-11001
-
This micro SD logger shield enables time-stamped logging of any signals measured by your Arduino project! Whether sensor shields, breakout boards or datalink connections, this shield will get your logger project up and running quickly. We've included an MCP79410 Real-Time-Clock module for flexible supply voltage timekeeping, which includes an on-board battery holder for a CR1220 battery (included, and is installed). In addition, the micro SD card is interfaced through a high-speed translator IC and supplied with a high-current LDO to meet the demands of the SD standard. Each pin of the Arduino has an offset pin attached for easy wiring to the massive 13x9 pin prototyping area, including the pins connected to the ICSP header! Whether you're using a Mega, Due or Uno, this board has your interfacing needs covered! Finally, the micro SD holder is a push to lock, push to unlock type, which makes it really easy to both install and uninstall your card.

TMD37003 cRGB Color and Proximity Sensor
SEN-36004
-
Fully integrated carrier board designed to get the most out of the TMD37003 cRGB (color with IR compensation) and Proximity Sensor from AMS. This means that the board includes a 1.8V-5V input range LDO and high-speed signal voltage translation on all IO pins. In addition, we've added a high output white LED that is tuned to the light temperature range of the TMD37003 IC. This makes sensing color of close-proximity objects possible, such as in robotic color sorting operations. As on many of our boards, we've included 4-40 sized mounting holes to make installation easy. The IC functions are interfaced via a 0.1" header, which includes power (Vdd and GND), I2C interface (again, fully translated) and a 3.3V input to power the proximity (IR) LED. The on-board LED is turned on with a logic 'HIGH' applied to the LED pin and is powered with Vdd.

Lightning "Emulator" Shield
SEN-39002
-
Arduino shield, ideal for AS3935 lightning sensor development. The lightning "emulator" generates a RF signal that mimics lightning strikes. This board is in an Arduino Uno form factor, and only uses GPIO and I2C, so can be stacked on many form factors (developed on an Uno and Mega).
