PING))) Ultrasonic Sensor + Protector Stand
910-28015B
-
The PING))) Ultrasonic Distance Sensor is perfect for any number of applications that require you to perform measurements between moving or stationary objects. The sensor measures distance using sonar; an ultrasonic (well above human hearing) pulse is transmitted from the unit and distance-to-target is determined by measuring the time required for the echo return. Output from the PING))) sensor is a variable-width pulse that corresponds to the distance to the target.The protector stand was designed to help fortify the PING))) sensor against collision damage, and to provide a more stylish appearance in doing so. The stand is cut from high-grade aluminum and can be attached to your projects easily.

JTAGulator 24-Channel Hardware Hacking Tool
32115
-
On-chip debug (OCD) interfaces can provide chip-level control of a target device and are a primary vector used by engineers, researchers, and hackers to extract program code or data, modify memory contents, or affect device operation on-the-fly. JTAGulator is an open source hardware tool that assists in identifying OCD connections from test points, vias, or component pads on a target device.

PIR Mini Sensor
28033
-
Do you have a big idea that needs a small motion sensor? The PIR Mini Sensor’s compact form factor is ideal for small-scale projects, and those where the electronics need to be hidden or protected. The narrow, vertically oriented board can slip through a hole in an enclosure to hide and protect the electronics, leaving only the small lens visible on the outside.

Mini Liquid Level Sensor
28090
-
The Mini Liquid Level Sensor is made to be inserted vertically into wet environments to detect liquid level from 0 to 1.88” (48 mm) or as an alarm. This sensor has a single analog output which may be directly connected to the Propeller Activity Board 4-channel A/D converter or easily interfaced with the MCP3002 A/D with a FLiP Multicore Microcontroller.

UV Light Sensor
28091
-
The UV Light Sensor measures ambient ultraviolet intensity in the 200 to 370 nanometer range, within the solar ultraviolet UVA, UVB, and UVC light spectrum. The sensor has a built-in amplifier with adjustable levels. The UV Light Sensor may be used outdoors in a variety of applications including datalogging and closed-loop control, such as for activating watering or greenhouse vents.

FlexiForce Sensor Demo Kit
30056
-
The Flexiforce sensor features a pressure sensitive disc pad on the end of an ultra-thin (0.008 in.) flexible printed circuit ribbon that can be easily integrated into force measurement applications. Note that the flexible ribbon is to accomodate optimal placement of the pressure-sensitive disc; the sensor does not measure force applying curvature to the ribbon itself.

MPU 9DOF Click
64219
-
Parallax speeds the process of Propeller 2 development through our partnership with MikroE, who has created a family of 850+ Clicks for most I/O functions you may envision. For each of the Click boards stocked by Parallax, you will find a documented Spin 2 code example on our Propeller GitHub Object Exchange. Connect your Click boards to the Propeller 2 Evaluation Board or P2-EC Edge Breakout Breadboard using the #64008 P2 to MikroBus Click Adapter.

5-Position Switch
27801
-
The 5-Position Switch is a normally open contact switch. It has a nice snappy feel, and returns to the center/un-pressed position immediately when it is released. By monitoring the input state of five pins, it’s easy for any Parallax microcontroller to detect whether the switch is in the up, down, left, right, or pressed position. It is possible for more than one position to make contact at a time, such as pressed+right, left+down, or pressed+right+down, for a total of 18 output states.
