Want more information about connecting the strip or how to connect sensors, servos or LEDs? Then go to the knowledge base įor users of the micro:bit in the Netherlands, there is a micro:bit community NL website: This is a platform created to share all information related to micro:bit, the so called one-stop-shop for everything you want to know, need or want to say about the micro:bit. A terminal block is a type of insulated electrical connector that connects or secures two or more wires together. ![]() The 2 extra outer holes of the connection strip can be used to attach the micro:bit to your setup with a screw, string or rubber band. The images show some examples of connected wires. The nuts are 'captured' in the recesses of the strip, so they cannot rotate while tightening the bolts. This requires a small Phillips screwdriver. Moreover, the wires do not come loose anymore when the screws are properly tightened. The strip makes it possible to connect wires to pins P0, P1, P2, 3V and GND that cannot make contact with other surfaces on the edge connector. Terminal stripĪ more solid connection can be made with this terminal strip. The disadvantage, however, is that they easily slip out and make contact with the neighboring surfaces on the edge connector, so that things no longer work properly. The advantage of this method is that you can make connections quickly and without tools. ![]() Often cables with so-called alligator clips are used for this. It is always important to have good contact with the copper tabs on the edge connector, while not touching the neighboring tabs. There are several ways to connect external components to the micro:bit.
