Issue 25 HackSpace magazine: Adafruit CRICKIT for micro:bit vs Motor Driver Board v2 #Adafruit #microbit #CRICKIT @HackSpaceMag @Adafruit

Issue 25 of HackSpace Magazine features two methods of getting motors connected to a micro:bit board: the Adafruit CRICKIT for micro:bit
vs the Kitronick Motor Driver Board v2.

Adafruit also offers a CRICKIT board that is compatible with your micro:bit, making adding a motor, servo, relay, or LED strip as easy as plugging the micro:bit into the CRICKIT’s edge connector port. The board also features capacitive touch breakout pads and a Class D 3-watt max audio amplifier with speaker connector.

Each board has various strengths and capabilities. HackSpace rated the Motor Driver V2 board 8/10 and the Adafruit Crickit for micro:bit 10/10!
