Dumb RGB Expansion Board

Add three channels to your RF1 12v 

This board was built to make use of the PWM channels on the RF1_12v

Power the board with 12V up to 6 amps and the RGB Expansion board will drive them.

 

The header on the Dumb RGB expansion board is fully compatible witht the RF1_12V,  It is also possible to connect the expansion board to an existing board which is controlling pixels.  

Comes with a 3amp fuse, Mosfets, Resistors and 15 + 1 header pins.  Does not include pins for the +12v, R, G, B header.

 

RF1 control board not included.

*The MOSFETs used on the dumb rgb expansion board will not work with the 5v rf1 board.  The 5v board utilizes a 3.3v regulator which is insufficient for the gate voltage.  It may be possible to use logic level MOSFETs with the rf1 5v.

nRF24L01+ 2.4 GHz RF PA With Antenna

The Nordic nRF24L01+ is a highly integrated, ultra low power (ULP) 2Mbps RF transceiver IC for the 2.4GHz ISM (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) band. With peak RX/TX currents lower than 14mA, a sub μA power down mode, advanced power management, and a 1.9 to 3.6V supply range, the nRF24L01+ provides a true ULP solution enabling months to years of battery life from coin cell or AA/AAA batteries. The Enhanced ShockBurst™ hardware protocol accelerator offloads time critical protocol functions from the application microcontroller enabling the implementation of advanced and robust wireless connectivity with low cost 3rd-party microcontrollers.
