Micro:bit IO:bit Expansion Board

The IO expansion module is designed to work with the micro:bit educational board. There are 20 GPIO pins on the board. Each GPIO has VCC and GND power pins, which makes it much easier to connect additional elements, e.g. sensors. The module is equipped with a voltage stabilization circuit with a jumper for selecting the operating voltage of 3.3 V or 5 V, it has a built-in buzzer and a 4-pin I2C connector. The board can be powered by the DC connector with the voltage ranging from 6 to 12 V or by the microUSB connector. The module will work in many projects using micro: bit that require the connection of additional sensors or display.
