The Propeller Activity Board WX features the 8-core Propeller microcontroller pre-wired to a host of popular peripherals for fast and fun experiments. Designed especially for STEM education, it's a great tool for learning or teaching technology basics: electronics, programming, sensors, communication, computer science, engineering, and control systems.

Programming is well-supported with our visual BlocklyProp tutorials or text-based C-language tutorials. It's also the board included on the ActivityBot 360° Robot.

The WX version of the Propeller Activity Board expands upon the functionality of the original (#32910). There’s more current for your projects with independent 1.8 amp 3.3 V and 5 V switching regulators, an upgrade from audio-out-only to a Mini TRRS audio/video (or audio/mic) jack, and selectable wireless socket/USB communication between host computer and the Propeller chip (RF module not included!)

Key Features :

BlocklyProp graphical programming on Chromebook, Windows, or Mac
Text-based C programming on Windows or Mac
8-core Propeller microcontroller & 64 KB EEPROM
RF module socket with WiFi support — experiment with wireless communication and debugging
microSD card holder — log sensor data or play WAV files
