NFC click Released
NFC click is a mikroBUS add-on board with a versatile near field communications controller from NXP - the PN7120 IC. NFC devices are used in contactless payment systems, electronic ticketing, smartcards, but also in retail and advertising - inexpensive NFC tags can be embedded into packaging labels, flyers or posters.
This board has full compliancy with NFC Forum specifications which means that you will be able to use the full potential of NFC and its three distinct operating modes:
1. Card emulation
2. Read/Write
3. P2P
In other words, NFC click can be set to behave either as an NFC reader, or a tag, or to establish a two-way connection with another NFC device.

CC3100 click (WiFi) Released
If you are building an IoT device that connects to the internet through WiFi, your two biggest concerns are power consumption and security – both major strengths of the module onboard CC3100 click.
This WiFi click board carries the successor of the highly popular CC3000 module from Texas Instruments. Its claim to fame was that it simplified WiFi for embedded developers by integrating multiple Internet Protocols and a Wifi driver with a simple API.
CC3100 inherits all these benefits, and on top of that, adds an updated protocol stack (support for 802.11n) and cutting edge security features (TSL encryption, hardware crypto-engine and more).

VREG click Released
VREG click is a digitally controlled DC Voltage regulator in mikroBUS™ form factor. The design is based on the well-known LM317 circuit, with the addition of a 12-bit DAC, 12-bit ADC, and an Operational Amplifier. Two pairs of screw terminals serve as inputs and outputs.
The LM317 IC is a reliable regulator with typical line regulation of 0.01% and load regulation of 0.1%. It also has internal short-circuit current limiting and thermal overload protection.
The circuit regulates voltage by turning all input/output difference into heat (effectively dissipating all the excess power). If it gets too hot it may damage the board or cause unexpected behaviour.
Because of that, the board’s operating range is defined by two factors. 1) maximum input voltage and current (should not exceed 20V/1A); and 2) maximum wattage arising from current and I/O voltage difference (should not exceed 2W, measured as I x (Input V - Output V).
The board also carries a MOSFET chip to toggle the output on and off.
VREG click communicates with the target board MCU through the SPI interface (CS, SCK, MISO, MOSI). The board can use either a 3.3V or a 5V power supply.
It is also possible to use the board’s power supply as the Input, by resoldering the onboard INPUT SEL jumper.

Color 3 click Released
Color 3 click is a mikroBUS add-on board with a TCS3771 color sensor (also known as a light-to-digital converter) and a narrow beam Infrared LED. The circuit can also function as a proximity sensor.
TCS3771 is a RGBC sensor: it can detect Red, Green, Blue and clear light. The IC performs well under a variety of lighting conditions. For example, it can be covered with different attenuation materials.
As a proximity sensor it has a large dynamic range of operation. It can take short distance measurements behind dark glass; or it can be configured for longer distance measurement, for example, human presence detection in front of monitors or laptops.
For power-saving, TCS3771 has an internal state machine that can put the device into a low power mode between successive RGBC and proximity measurements.
TCS3771 is also fast enough to give off proximity information at a high rate of repetition. This makes it useful for proximity detection in portable devices (such as a phone coming near to a speaker’s ear).
Color 3 click communicates with the target MCU through the mikroBUS I2C interface, with additional functionality provided by an INT pin. Designed to use a 3.3 power supply only.

Voltmeter click Released
Voltmeter click is a mikroBUS add-on board for measuring voltage in an external electric circuit.
The board is designed to measure Direct Current only, and has a measurement range from 0 to 24V (it's possible to measure both positive and negative charges).
The design of the board is based on an OpAmp set up as a differential amplifier with a buffered input.
Two onboard screw terminals (probe+ and probe-) are bringing in the current, which then flows through a row of four resistors. A voltage – proportional to the input charge – is generated across the last two resistors. From there it is sent to the differential amplifier that further intensifies the difference between the two inputs (+/-).
The resulting charge is exactly 33 times lower than the actual measured voltage. It is converted by an onboard 12-bit ADC before being outputted through the mikroBUS SPI interface (the firmware in the target board MCU should be set up to multiply the ADC value to get the actual voltage). It is also possible to output the analog value directly through the mikroBUS AN pin (useful if the target MCU has a higher resolution ADC).
The board can work with either a 3.3V or a 5V power supply.
