Circuit Playground is here - and it's the best way to practice programming on real hardware with no soldering or sewing required!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is Adafruit's Classic version of Circuit Playground, which comes with an \u003cstrong\u003eATmega32u4\u003c\/strong\u003e. It's designed to be used with \u003cstrong\u003eArduino IDE\u003c\/strong\u003e and\u003cstrong\u003e code.org CS Discoveries\u003c\/strong\u003e only. It even comes with \u003cstrong\u003eFirmata already programmed in\u003c\/strong\u003e, so you can use it immediately with code.org Discoveries without any preparation or updates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you would like to use MakeCode or CircuitPython, check out Circuit Playground Express, which can be used with MakeCode, CircuitPython or Arduino.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCircuit Playground features an ATmega32u4 processor, just like our popular Flora. The board's also round and has \u003cstrong\u003ealligator-clip pads\u003c\/strong\u003e around it so you don't have to solder or sew to make it work. You can power it from \u003cstrong\u003eUSB\u003c\/strong\u003e, a AAA battery pack, or with a \u003cstrong\u003eLipoly battery\u003c\/strong\u003e (for advanced users).

Built in USB means you plug it in to program it and it just shows up.  All you really need is a Micro-B data\/sync USB cable - not included! With the new 1.6.4+ Arduino IDE, it takes only a few seconds to add support. The Circuit Playground has USB HID support, so it can act like a mouse or keyboard and attach directly to computers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHere's some of the great goodies baked in:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10x mini NeoPixels, each one can display any colour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Motion sensor (LIS3DH triple-axis accelerometer with tap detection, free-fall detection)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Temperature sensor (thermistor)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Light sensor (phototransistor)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Sound sensor (MEMS microphone)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Mini speaker (magnetic buzzer)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2x Push buttons, left and right\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Slide switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8x alligator-clip friendly input\/output pins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes I2C, UART, and 4 pins that can do analogue inputs\/PWM output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll 8 pads can act as capacitive touch inputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreen \"ON\" LED so you know its powered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRed \"#13\" LED for basic blinking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReset button\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LWqp91uD5L8?si=zp4beB2KrgeSIO10\u0026amp;start=458\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eATmega32u4 processor running at 3.3V and 8MHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Arduino IDE and Code.org CS Discoveries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-programmed with Firmata for immediate use with Code.org\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10 addressable NeoPixel LEDs with full colour control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in sensors: motion (accelerometer with tap\/free-fall detection), temperature, light, and sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMini speaker (magnetic buzzer) for audio feedback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 push buttons and 1 slide switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 alligator-clip friendly I\/O pads with capacitive touch support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports I2C, UART, analogue inputs, and PWM output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicro-USB port for programming and debugging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB HID support functions as keyboard, mouse, joystick, or MIDI device\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower via USB, AAA battery pack, or LiPoly battery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo soldering or sewing required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCircular board design with alligator-clip pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in power and status LEDs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOuter Diameter: 50.6mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 8.5g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRevision History\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAs of June 30, 2017,\u003c\/strong\u003e these now come pre-programmed with Firmata so they can be used with code.org CS curriculum immediately!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAs of August 3, 2017,\u003c\/strong\u003e we now have a new silkscreen back that says \"Circuit Playground Classic\".
