ELEGOO UNO R3 Project Most Complete Starter Kit, Compatible with Arduino

ELEGOO UNO R3 The Most Complete Starter Kit

Want to learn how to work with electronics and programming but need a little help? You've come to the right place!

ELEGOO UNO R3 Starter Kit provides an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software, which evolves the user from beginner to professional level.

Our starter kit is designed to get you started quickly and easily on your path of learning electronics. Originally this pack was designed to follow the introductory tutorials with 33 creative and fun projects. But it's a great starter kit in general as it's designed for everyone even novices who have very little or no electronics and programming experience. The starter bundle contains everything you need (except tools) to take your first step on electronics journey!

Starter Kit for Everyone to Learn Electronics, Programming and Robotics

Electronics is not as complicated as you imagine especially with ELEGOO UNO R3 Starter Kit. For advanced users like professional lab engineers, electronics engineering students and experienced electronic hobbyists, they can use this kit to do various kinds of tests and experiments with so many sensors available at hand.

Beginners can follow the included tutorial step by step to learn basic circuit building and programming, while students, makers, and experienced hobbyists can use the included sensors and modules for prototyping and experimentation. Explore projects involving LEDs, displays, buttons, motion and distance sensing, motors, RFID, timing, and other common electronics applications. The wide component selection makes it possible to progress from simple exercises to more complex multi-module projects at your own pace.

The Most Complete Starter Kit with High Quality Components and Tutorial

Quantity and quality are both important here in the ELEGOO UNO R3 starter kit.

We offer more than over 60 kinds of components and sensors from small parts like LED diodes, resistors and potentiometers to big parts like LCD1602, RFID module and 830 tie-points breadboard, which meet your demands for your different projects whether it is simple or complex.

Quality is ELEGOO's top priority. Even with so many components provided, we never compromise on quality. Instead we keep improving our product quality in our own factory and we produce the products by ourselves under high standards and strict quality control. Pins and wires on some of the parts like LCD1602 and motors have been pre-soldered which is very convenient and saves your time.

74HC595 Shift Register and LEDs

74HC595 is a Serial to Parallel Converter which has eight outputs and three inputs that you use to feed data into it a bit at a time. This chip makes it a little slower to drive the LEDs (you can only change the LEDs about 500,000 times a second instead of 8,000,000 a second) but it's still really fast, way faster than humans can detect, so it's worth it!

74HC595 shift register is a type of chip that holds what can be thought of as eight memory locations, each of which can either be a 1 or a 0. To set each of these values on or off, we feed in the data using the 'Data' and 'Clock' pins of the chip.

LCD1602 Display Module

LCD1602 module is a display that has an LED backlight and can display two rows with up to 16 characters on each row. You can see the rectangles for each character on the display and the pixels that make up each character. The display is just white on blue and is intended for showing text.

Lining up the display with the top of the breadboard helps to identify its pins without too much counting, especially if the breadboard has its rows numbered with row 1 as the top row of the board. Do not forget, the long yellow lead that links the slider of the pot to pin 3 of the display. The 'pot' is used to control the contrast of the display.

DC Motors and L293D Motor Driver

In this project you will learn how to control a small DC motor using an UNO R3 and a L293D motor driver IC, which is a very useful chip. It can actually control two motors independently. We are just using half the chip in this lesson, most of the pins on the right hand side of the chip are for controlling a second motor.

The L293D is a quadruple high-current half-H driver designed for bidirectional control of DC motors and other inductive loads. It supports continuous output current of up to 600 mA per channel with a supply-voltage range of 4.5 to 36 V.
