Description micro:bit air quality and environment board - Kitronik

This is the Kitronik air quality and environment board for micro:bit. It offers a complete solution for air monitoring and reporting. Thanks to all the built-in sensors and connections, you can collect extensive air quality data. This is stored in the board's memory and can be displayed on the OLED screen . This data can also be transferred to a computer for analysis. Kitronik has created online MakeCode instructions. These will guide you through the most important functions of the board.

This board is also perfect for the classroom. You can run short or long term experiments such as: monitoring air quality throughout the year . Or air quality with and without the heating on. You can then use the data collected to create graphs and more. Alternatively, it would make a great addition to an office/workplace . For example, it could tell you when it’s time to open your windows or remind you to ventilate a room .

The board has an integrated connector which allows you to easily plug in the BBC micro:bit. The built in sensors allow you to measure temperature, pressure, humidity, air quality index and eCO2. The real time clock (RTC) and 1Mbit EEPROM allow for time keeping, data logging and long term data storage . There are also 3 ZIP LEDs for displaying data. 3 of the micro:bit pins (0,1,2) are made available as solder pads. This allows you to connect additional sensors or outputs. There are also 3V and GND pads to power these components.

The board can be powered via the 3xAA battery holder or via the micro USB connector. The power supply is controlled by an on/off switch. A green LED indicates whether the board is on or off. The micro:bit is powered directly from the board. There is no need to power it separately.

The board also has a connection for a solar cell. This can be used for rechargeable batteries or to make your experiments last longer . Be careful! Make sure you use NiMh rechargeable batteries.
