Note: This BitMaker Lite Expansion board works with both micro:bit V1 and micro:bit V2.


 

 

 

BitMaker Lite is a cheaper, smaller, and more compact version of BitMaker. It has only 3 Grove ports, but it’s pretty sufficient for many projects. It acts as a bridge for micro:bit and the Grove system, which provides hundreds of different Grove modules including sensors, actuators, communication modules, displays, etc., which will broaden the micro:bit’s ability in creating more projects easily and quickly.

 

 

The touchable pins P1 and P2 are reserved for connecting banana plugs or crocodile clips. If you want to access more GPIOs, BitMaker Lite also provides breakouts for all available pins of micro:bit. You can solder header connectors to use them.
