Red Pitaya - Click Shield Additional Modules

Product Information - Description

The Red Pitaya click shield is a hardware adapter board that enables the Red Pitaya to interface with Click Shield modules from Mikroelektronika. The use of the Red Pitaya Click Shield in combination with the Click Shield modules accelerates the development of product prototypes in fields such as Agriculture, Transport, and Environment applications. Additionally, it serves as a valuable teaching tool for students to learn about sensors, communication interfaces, and other important concepts. One of the outstanding features of the Red Pitaya Click Shield is the ability to synchronize several Red Pitaya units with ultimate timing precision. This makes it an excellent tool for applications where timing accuracy is critical. Moreover, the Red Pitaya click shield is capable of interfacing with up to two Click Boards simultaneously and provides additional power for the connected modules. Overall, the Red Pitaya Click Shield is a powerful and versatile tool that can significantly enhance the development of hardware projects and serves as an excellent educational tool.

Advantages

This product offers a low-budget solution for start-ups and non-profit organizations that may have limited resources and want to save time and effort on hardware prototyping. With the Red Pitaya Click Shield and Click Boards from Mikroelektronika, developers can quickly and easily build functional prototypes without needing expensive and time-consuming custom hardware designs. By providing a cost-effective and efficient solution for hardware prototyping, this product helps to level the playing field for smaller organizations. It enables them to compete with larger, more established companies. This innovation allows start-ups and non-profit organizations to focus their resources on other critical aspects of their business or mission, rather than spending valuable time and money on hardware prototyping. This approach offers several advantages. One of the primary benefits is that it provides a low-cost solution for regional digitalization, which can be particularly valuable for smaller communities or organizations with limited resources. The cost-effectiveness of the solution enables a broader range of stakeholders to participate in digitalization efforts and opens up new possibilities for innovation and experimentation. Another significant advantage of this approach is that it allows for inexpensive testing of new ideas and solutions.

Who is this product for?

The platform is widely used in various fields, including education, research, and industry. The market opportunity for the Red Pitaya Click Shield lies in the fact that it enables users to extend the functionality of the Red Pitaya platform by providing a simple and cost-effective way to interface with Mikroelektronika Click Boards. This opens up new possibilities for hardware prototyping and experimentation and enhances the platform's overall value proposition.

What Click Boards will be available for the Red Pitaya Click Shield and what are they

Click boards™ are made to save developers time because by using Click boards™ you do not have to worry about designing a new board just to test some idea or concept. They are a perfect solution for users which requires tested and affordable hardware, supported with FREE libraries and technical support. They simplify integration and later upgrade of the project or products.

MikroElektronika MikroBUS™ Adapter click boards™ are designed to revolutionize the way users add new functionality to development boards. The user can push a click board into the innovative new MikroBUS™ standard socket and use it with zero hardware configuration.

Uniform connection interface mikroBUS™

To enable hundreds of Click boards™ to be connected to the microcontroller or microprocessor we have invented socket standard - mikroBUS. This uniform connection interface is allowing you to connect any Click board to a main board instantly. The standard specifies the physical layout of the mikroBUS™ pinout, the communication and power supply pins located on the main board as well as the matching pinout on the Click board itself.

Standardized size and shape

Click boards™ are a modular prototyping add-on board standard which revolutionizes the way users add new functionalities to development boards. They come in different flavors, however the standard specifies the size and shape of the add-on boards as well as the silkscreen used. Majority of Click boards™ are made to address one functionality and feature - one part per board, this allows you fast and easy evaluation of technology or comparison of parts at any time.

Plug and Play

By sharing the same standardized pin-out, mikroBUS (host) and Click boards (peripheral) are enabling you to evaluate, prototype and develop ideas in minutes without losing additional time on the hardware setup. This plug and play concept allows you not to worry about hardware and just focus on what matters, your idea!
