Upcycle it Design Challenge: The Kit

Intel Edison for Arduino

The Intel Edison Board for Arduino is a development platform that allows for rapid prototyping of “Internet of Things” (IoT) and wearable computing products. It supports Arduino Sketches, Linux, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. The board is compatible with Arduino Uno's I/O except it that it has 4 PWM instead of 6 PWM. Its 20 digital input/output pins include 4 pins as PWM outputs. It also has 6 analog inputs, one UART (Rx/Tx), one I²C, an ICSP 6-pin header (SPI), a Micro USB device connector, a dedicated standard size USB host Type-A connector, a Micro USB device, an SD card connector and a DC power jack (7 to 15 VDC input).

Intel Edison Breakout Board

Slightly larger than the Intel Edison module itself, the Intel Edison Breakout Board (also called the "mini" breakout board) is designed to expose the native 1.8 V I/O of the Intel Edison module. The board consists of a power supply, battery charger, USB OTG power switch, UART to USB bridge, USB OTG port, and an I/O header. It has a 0.1 inch grid I/O array of through-hole solder points. The DC power supply jack accepts a 7 to 15 VDC input.

Arduino Protoshield R3

The Arduino Protoshield R3 makes it easy to design custom circuits for the Upcycle it Design Challenge. You can solder parts to the prototyping area, or use it with a small solderless breadboard to quickly test circuit ideas. Features include: Arduino 1.0 pin outs, a large 0.1inch prototyping area, Reset button, 14-pin SMD footprint (50mils pitch), 20-pin through hole footprint (100mils pitch), SPI header, and easy-to-solder ground/5V rails.

Seeed Studio Grove Start Kit for Arduino

Seeed Studio's Grove Starter Kit is a handy collection of components for rapid prototyping, based on the Arduino-compatible, Grove plugable-component system. Besides the base shield, the kit includes a rotary angle sensor, RGB Backlight LCD, sound sensor, button, light sensor, touch sensor, temperature sensor, LEDs, relay, buzzer, servo, and more.

Triad Magnetics WSX120-2000WSX120-2000 AC/DC Power Supply

To power the Intel Edison from an external source, the Upcycle it kit includes theTriad Magnetics WSX120-2000WSX120-2000 AC/DC Power Supply, which accepts a 90 to 264VAC input and outputs 12 VDC at 2A. It has a changeable head so it can be used anywhere in the world.

Molex Cable Assembly

To connect the Intel Edison for Arduino or Breakout Boards to your computer, the kit includes a USB-A to Micro USB-B 2-meter long cable assembly
