8-core Propeller microcontroller pre-wired to a host of popular peripherals for fast and fun experiments.

  • 8-core Propeller microcontroller and 64 KB EEPROM — program in C, Spin, or Assembly
  • RF module socket with WiFi support — experiment with wireless communication and debugging
  • microSD card holder — log sensor data or play WAV files
  • Mini TRRS audio/video jack — listen to WAV files, synthesized speech, or output Propeller-generated video
  • 3-pin headers — quickly connect servos, sensors, serial LCDs, etc.
  • Breadboard — build and rebuild circuits without soldering
  • A/D and D/A converters — read or set the voltages for battery monitoring or sensors
  • Independent switching regulators — 3.3 V, 1.8 A and 5 V, 1.8 A
  • Power via USB or power supply/battery pack
  • A bag of 10 3"" jumper wires and four protective rubber feet are included

Designed especially for STEM education, it's a great tool for learning or teaching technology basics: electronics, programming, sensors, communication, and control systems. It is well-supported with our free C-language programming software and web tutorials: learn.parallax.com/propeller-c. It's also the board included on the ActivityBot Robot.

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!)

Power requirements: 6 to 15 VDC from an external power supply, or 5 V from a USB port
Communication: USB mini-B (onboard serial over USB) or wireless (RF module not included)
Dimensions: 4.0 x 3.05 x 0.625 in (10.16 x 7.75 x 1.59 cm)
Operating temp range: +32 to +158 °F (0 to +70 °C)
