Click boards are plug-and-play modules designed to add extra functionality to existing development kits. These small, function-specific add-on boards/modules all have a common interface to the mikroBUS™ adapter board. Multiple Click boards can also be used simultaneously to enable many features to be implemented at the same time. These Click boards offer a dual power design, 3.3V and 5V, taking the issue of power supply out of the equation.

There are over 70 Click Boards available allowing developers to easily implement features such as Bluetooth, temperature sensing, humidity sensing and analog-to-digital conversion. Here’s four we’re featuring now – check back for updates as we add more Click Boards to the list!

What Software Works with Click Boards?

µC/Probe ™ Graphical Live Watch™

Micrium’s µC/Probe is a Windows application that allows you to read and write the memory of any embedded target processor during run-time, and map those values to a set of virtual controls and indicators placed on a graphical dashboard.

Absolutely no programming is required – simply drag and drop the graphic components into place, and watch them go.

This software is a must-have runtime agnostic tool to display and control just about any I/O variable in a target system thru rich graphical objects on the host computer. No code on target needed when using JLINK or select JTAG interfaces. Tech Specs
