Good day all! Welcome again to a different Friday Product Submit right here at SparkFun Electronics! This week, we lastly get to announce one other board that we’ve got been engaged on behind the scenes for fairly a while. In the present day, we’re excited to announce the SparkFun IoT Brushless Motor Driver! This new robotics platform is a kitchen sink of a board and is managed by the TMC6300 3-phase motor driver and the favored ESP32 WROOM to get you related through WiFi and Bluetooth®. Following that we’ve got two model of the OPT4048DTSR Tristimulus Shade Sensor, in each Normal and Mini-sized Qwiic board footprints. Lastly, we wrap the week with a brand new 10ml Electrical Paint Sachet from Naked Conductive. Let’s bounce in and take a more in-depth take a look at all of this week’s new merchandise!

An IoT-capable brushless motor driver? Oh, the chances!

The SparkFun IoT Brushless Motor Driver is a robust, easy-to-use motor driver that may management any 3-phase BLDC with built-in WiFi and Bluetooth® capabilities! Nonetheless, with our on-board Three Part Brushless Gimbal Motor, you may be certain of getting the most effective efficiency and reliability with no need to search out your personal motor. It options the TMC6300 from ADI + Trinamic, a high-performance motor driver that lets you management the motor utilizing a microcontroller, such because the ESP32 WROOM, which is included on the board. The SparkFun IoT Brushless Motor Driver is ideal for numerous IoT functions, reminiscent of controlling robots, drones, and different high-performance units.

The SparkFun Qwiic Tristimulus Shade Sensor is constructed across the OPT4048 Excessive-Velocity, Excessive-Precision Tristimulus XYZ Shade Sensor from Texas Devices. This Sensor includes a single-chip high-resolution colour sensor able to measuring 4 channels, every with particular engineered spectral responses. Three of the 4 channels on the OPT4048DTSR intently match the CIE tristimulus spectra, with the fourth channel having a wide-band spectral response. With measurements from these channels, important traits of the lighting atmosphere may be extracted, like (i) gentle depth (lux), (ii) colour in CIE XY, LUV coordinates, and (iii) Correlated Shade Temperature. In case your area is proscribed to your subsequent challenge, we additionally carry this board in our Qwiic Mini footprint as effectively! It is the identical board as our Normal 1in. by 1in.model, simply half the scale!

Naked Conductive’s Electrical Paint Sachets are an important electronics prototyping device for makers of all ages and are identical to some other water-based paint… besides that it is electrically conductive! This implies which you can really paint wires onto issues like fashions, garments, furnishings, partitions, nearly something you possibly can consider. Normal acrylic or water-based paints may even be used alongside Electrical Paint to behave as insulation or to create multi-layer circuitry!

That is it for this week. As all the time, we won’t wait to see what you make! Shoot us a tweet @sparkfun, or tell us on Instagram, Fb or LinkedIn. Please be secure on the market, be variety to at least one one other! We’ll be again with extra new merchandise subsequent week so be sure that to test again then. Completely happy hacking!

By no means miss a brand new product!
