Clicker Board 2 for FT90x
Clicker Board 2 for FT90x
Overview
The Clicker 2 Board™ for FT90x is a fast and compact development kit powered by FT900, a 32-bit FT32 core microcontroller. Equipped with two MikroBUS sockets, this development board provides for Click Board™ connectivity to quickly build innumerable gadgets with unique features and functionalities.
The microcontroller can be programmed using an external MikroProg for FT90x programmer with MikroProg Suite for FT90x software.
Technical Specifications
Thousands of possibilities with Click boards™
With two mikroBUS™ sockets on clicker 2, you can take advantage of the huge potential of Click boards™, the constantly expanding range of over 1300 add-on Click boards™. Blend different functionalities together and come up with new and original inventions. That's just two clicks and your project is half-way done. Go ahead and play with a few ideas right away.
Programming
To make your prototyping experience as convenient as possible, clicker 2 for FT90x is preprogrammed with a USB HID bootloader. Just download our mikroBootloader application and you're ready to upload your firmware. On-board mikroProg for FT90x connector enables programming through external programmer/debugger.
Power Management
Clicker 2 for FT90x features LTC®3586, a highly integrated power management and battery charger IC that includes a current limited switching PowerPath manager. LTC®3586 also enables battery charging over a USB connection. You can supply power to the board with a micro USB cable provided in the package. On-board voltage regulators provide the appropriate voltage levels to each component on the board.
Powering Your Inventions
Focus on your main idea because the Clicker 2 Board for FT90x will take care of the details for you: your prototype already has a power management system in place. The onboard LTC®3586-1 IC will provide 3.3V or 5V to the clicks. It turns the USB port into a battery charger. For convenience, clicker 2 for FT900 features a reset button and an ON/OFF switch (you can also connect an external ON/OFF switch).
