The micro:bit has 2 I2C devices the accelerometer and magnetometer. the address of the devices are as follows Device I2C Address Accelerometer 0x1D Magnetometer (compass) 0x0E Now you can also connect I2C devices to your micro:bit and sometimes you need to check the address of the...

The MMA8653FC is an intelligent, low-power, three-axis, capacitive micromachined accelerometer with 10 bits of resolution. This accelerometer is packed with embedded functions with flexible user-programmable options, configurable to two interrupt.
Freescale’s MAG3110 is a small, low-power, digital 3-axis magnetometer. The device can be used in conjunction with a 3-axis accelerometer to realize an orientation independent electronic compass that can provide.
You can now use the Arduino IDE to develop and program your Micro:Bit, in my view thats a good thing to add this support as its a popular development tool that is used for many other boards Arduino assumes there's a 'softdevice' radio already installed....
In this next example using the block editor we will use the accelerometer that is on the Micro:bit board to detect when the micro:bit is being shaken, if it is.
The pins on your Micro:bit that are labelled 0, 1 and 2 can be used as touch inputs. To do this you need to touch the ground pin with one.
I bought an Espruino board while back because it allowed you to code in JavaScript using a neat chrome add on - a web ide and then flash your device directly. I was also intrigued to se that there was firmware for other boards such...
We will look at how you can use C++ to write programs for your Micro:bit, there is an online compiler you use and we will show you how to access.
A force-sensing resistor is a material whose resistance changes when a force or pressure is applied. Force-sensing resistors consist of a conductive polymer, which changes resistance in a predictable manner.
