PICAXE-20M2 Starter Pack
SKU:AXE005U
This PICAXE-20M2 Starter Pack is a self-assembly kit, based on the PICAXE-20M2 Microcontroller.
The starter pack is targeted at schools and general educational purposes, but the open design also makes it very useful for hobbyists to use it as a project board, or for any one who wants to self study, or learning by experimenting.
The PICAXE-20M2 Starter Pack includes both a training board, PICAXE-20M2 microcontroller, AXE027 download cable and a battery box. The software needed is free, so all extra you need to get started, is a computer and batteries. Furthermore, free training resources and tutorials are provided in the PICAXE manual (Part 1 - Getting Started).
The project board comes with assembly instructions, and when completed, the board will contain the following:
- PICAXE-20M2 microcontroller
- IC socket (to easily replace the PICAXE-20M2 or use with a PICAXE-20X2 microcontroller)
- All necessary extra components for the PICAXE-20M2 (or 20X2) to operate
- Darlington driver buffer chip, that enables you to connect higher power output devices (such as motors, solenoids, relays) directly to the board (current up to 500mA)
- AXE027 USB cable connector
This starter kit can be used with any software application that supports the PICAXE hardware, including the free PICAXE Editor 6
