New Product Roundup – October 22nd to October 28th

We are back with another edition of our New Product Roundup! This week we have a few different products to talk about: We now stock the JST ZH pigtails for our AstroPi Switchboard, another Piezo buzzer has been added from Adafruit, and we have an Ethernet expansion board for the Onion Omega. Lets go have a closer look at each!







Ethernet Expansion Board for Onion Omega

Add Ethernet to your Onion Omega! This Onion Ethernet add-on board connects at up to 100Mbps and makes for a reliable fixed connection for situations where Wireless may not be the best choice. The board can also be used to re-flash your Omega’s firmware.

Piezo Buzzer – PS1240

A piezo buzzer is used to generate tones, beeps, and alerts. This small buzzer is breadboard compatible and can generate a tone between 2KHz and 10KHz with a 3-30V peak to peak square wave. The loudest tones are generated around 4KHz.

JST ZH Connector Pre-Wired

These tiny connectors mate to the JST-ZH sockets found on a variety of boards where space is a premium. This cable is the correct mating product to the connectors on our AstroPi Switchboard. Each cable is approximately 15cm long and uses 28 AWG wire – these are not intended to carry significant current, but are ideal for sensors and buttons.
