LectureFeather

Original price was: $ 55,00.Current price is: $ 39,50.

Created as a tool for learning IoT and Embedded Systems, this development board comes ready to use. Wifi and Bluetooth is builtin and the 8Mb Flash memory allows for both large firmware and file storage. No soldering required. The Feather compatible microcontroller has four sensors onboard:

  • Accelerometer (LIS3DH)
  • Light/lux sensor (LTR-329)
  • Temperature/moisture sensor (SHT31)
  • Hall sensor (MT8691AT)

The device features a programmable Dotstar RGB LED (APA102-2020) for user feedback. The devboard has a USB Type C connector for power and programming, but also has LiPo charging (MCP73831) builtin. The onboard STEMMA-connector, makes it easy to add new features such as displays, sensors, inputs and outputs without soldering from well known vendors such as Adafruit or Sparkfun.

This Feather dev board based on ESP32-S3, made for lecturing Embedded Systems (PG5501), Machine to machine communications (TEK303) and Edge To App (PGR212) at Kristiania University. Details on usage with either Arduino or PlatformIO can be found here and if you are building an IoT/M2M topic for students, you might find an interest in the source files for the Edge To App lectures.

Feel free to use the Kicad files to make your own boards for use in your own lectures or purchase premade boards here. As a consulting service, we can also produce customized versions of this sensor platform especially for your school/university. Get in touch for details! The device is fully Open Source Hardware, with all source files published on Github. This allows students with an interest to really build a deeper understanding and to dig into how electronics really are made and designed.

Thanks to Adafruit

This board is based on the Feather ESP32-S3 from Adafruit and while I have created the project in Kicad, the job was so much easier thanks to all the great work and research by Adafruit. Thus I’m keeping with the CC-BY-SA3.0 license so be sure to share if you redistribute/remake.

This board will make it really easy for students to extend the base functionality using FeatherWings and Stemma sensors from Adafruit. I highly recommend Adafruit products and they do fantastic work for the hardware and electronics commmunity.

Accelerometer

The LIS3DH has dynamically user-selectable full
scales of ±2g/±4g/±8g/±16g and is capable of
measuring accelerations with output data rates
from 1 Hz to 5.3 kHz.

Light/lux sensor

The LTR-329 provides a linear response over a wide dynamic range from 0.01 lux to 64k lux and is well suited to applications under high ambient brightness.

Temperature/moisture sensor

The SHT35 has a fully calibrated, linearized, and temperature
compensated digital output with a typical accuracy of ±2%RH and ±0.2 °C.

Hall sensor

The MT8691AT is a Uni-polar sensor that responds to North pole or South pole magnetic fields from a nearby magnet.
