C Meter click is a mikroBUS add-on board with circuitry for measuring the value of capacitors. The design is based on a NE-555 timer/square-wave generator. The chip is implemented in an astable multivibrator circuit with fixed resistors and adjustable capacitors. 


The board has four different-sized plates for placing SMD capacitors (covering standard SMD packaging dimensions) as well as a socket for inserting a thru hole capacitor. 


The board outputs a square wave frequency through the INT pin. Depending on the capacitor placed on the board, the value of this frequency changes. The value of a capacitor can be inferred using a simple algorithm (shown in the Libstock code example). 


Onboard screw terminals are placed to allow the click to be used with multimeter probes. 
C Meter click is designed to use a 5V power supply, but can work with either 3.3V or 5V logic levels.

4-20mA T 2 Click

0

4-20mA T 2 Click is a compact add-on board for transmitting an analog output current over an industry-standard 4-20mA current loop. This board features DAC161S997, a low-power 16-bit ΣΔ digital-to-analog converter (DAC) from Texas Instruments. It has a programmable Power-Up condition and loop-error detection/reporting accessible via simple 4-wire SPI for data transfer and configuration of the DAC functions. In addition, it is characterized by low power consumption and the possibility of simple Highway Addressable Remote Transducer (HART) modulator interfacing, allowing the injection of FSK-modulated digital data into the 4-20mA current loop.
