Description

The Adafruit Clue is based off the familiar form factor of the BBC micro:bit, but with a TFT display and tons of sensors! Since it has the same edge connector as the micro:bit, the Clue is compatible with your existing robot kit or add-ons.

The Clue features a Nordic nRF52840 Bluetooth LE processor with 1 MB of Flash, 256KB RAM and 64 MHz Cortex M4 processor. It has its own protected onboard regulator and can be powered with 3-6VDC. On the front are two buttons to use as basic inputs and a 1.3” Color IPS TFT display for high resolution text and graphics.

To sense the world around it the Clue has a LSM6DS33 3 axis Accelerometer and Gyroscope, a LIS3MDL Magnetometer, an APDS9960 Proximity, Light, Color, and Gesture Sensor, a microphone, a BMP280 Temperature and Barometric Pressure sensor, and a SHT Humidity Sensor.

If all of that is not enough, there is also an RGB Neopixel LED indicator, 2MB of internal flash storage (for datalogging, images, and code), a buzzer/speaker, two bright white LEDs for illumination and color sensing, and a Qwicc / STEMMA QT connector for adding more sensors.

The Clue is programmable with the Arduino IDE or Circuit Python. At this time there is no MakeCode or Scratch Support.
