NEW PRODUCTS THIS WEEK
Espressif ESP32-S3-BOX-3B: This is the ESP32-S3-BOX-3B bare-bones version of ESP32-S3-BOX-3 kit without add-ons. Click here for the standard ESP32-S3-BOX-3 kit edition which comes with more sensors!
With its freely available development resources, ESP32-S3-BOX-3 is the ultimate choice for prototyping new projects or building complex AIoT systems.
Adafruit ItsyBitsy ESP32 – PCB Antenna – 8 MB Flash / 2 MB PSRAM: What’s smaller than a Feather but larger than a Trinket? It’s an Adafruit ItsyBitsy ESP32, a powerful processor PCB with a plethora of pins! It features the ESP32 Pico module, an FCC-certified module that contains an ESP32 chip with dual-core 240MHz Tensilica processor, WiFi, and Bluetooth classic + BLE, configured with 8 MB of Flash memory, and 2 MB of PSRAM.
We’ve added some handy accessories like a USB to serial converter chip, power regulator, USB Micro B, buttons, NeoPixel, and Stemma QT I2C connector to outfit this super-hero chip for any task you want to throw it at. This is also an ultra low power ESP32 board with a deep sleep current consumption of 10uA!
Adafruit ItsyBitsy ESP32 – wFL Antenna – 8 MB Flash / 2 MB PSRAM: What’s smaller than a Feather but larger than a Trinket? It’s an Adafruit ItsyBitsy ESP32 with a wFL external Antenna Connection, a powerful processor PCB with a plethora of pins! It features the ESP32 Pico module, an FCC-certified module that contains an ESP32 chip with dual-core 240MHz Tensilica processor, WiFi, and Bluetooth classic + BLE, configured with 8 MB of Flash memory, and 2 MB of PSRAM.

Pink Anti-Static Zip Top Bag – 2″ x 3.5″ – 100 Pack: These baggies are great for carrying and transporting small electronics, especially delicate or ESD-sensitive PCBs and other parts and components. We have a ton of extras in the warehouse and thought folks might be interested since we often use heat-sealed (and thus, not reusable) bags these days.
Flora RGB Smart NeoPixel version 3 – Sheet of 20: So, you want lots and lots of NeoPixels? And you want them for less? Not a problem! Here’s a sheet of Flora NeoPixels fresh from the (reflow) oven. Cut them off as you need ’em and save a pretty penny while you’re at it.
Each order comes with 20 pixels on a sheet. If you want a smaller number, we also have them in packs of 4. We suggest cutting them out with diagonal cutters or heavy-duty scissors.
Adafruit NeoRGB Stemma – NeoPixel to RGB PWM LEDs and Strips – STEMMA JST PH 2mm: Whenever we’re working with ‘true analog’ LED strips, that have 1-3 channels of RGB or White LEDs, we wish we had already invented to make wiring them easier: controlling these strips takes a bit of wiring since they almost always need 12VDC and driver FETs. Now, we’ve finally created the Adafruit NeoRGB Stemma board – which will make our lives easier, and maybe even some customer’s too!
The NeoRGB is a no-soldering, plug-and-play STEMMA board with a 2mm JST PH connector on one end, and a 5-pin 0.1″ screw terminal block on the other. It can convert standard 800KHz NeoPixel signal using a WS2811F chip to AO3406 N-channel FETs that are high efficiency and can sink a chunk of current – 3 Amps a piece with 50milliOhm Ron!
