Remember the other week when we mentioned how the Arduino Parts category was looking rather thin? Well, we've gone ahead and fattened it up a bit with the following new items:
You might be wondering what the heck does a power jack have to do with Arduino? Well, that's actually the same unit we use to deliver power to the Freeduino SB.
