Adafruit NRF52840 Feather Express
This board enables connecting buttons, switches, encoders, potentiometers, rotary switches, joysticks and various sensors, to easily deploy wireless solutions.
An battery charging circuit allows you to power the board with a battery for embedded applications, along with an internal connexion in order to measure precisely the battery voltage, so you will know the charge that's left.
You will have access to 22 I/Os, including 7 analog inputs with a 12 bits ADC. One additionnal digital input is available for the on board user switch, as well as an "NFC" pad under the board if another input is needed. The inputs are 3.3 V and are not 5 V tolerant. The heart of this board is the NRF52840, the most suitable microcontroller on the market for embedded systems. Clocked at 64 MHz, it also offers 2 SPI ports, 1 I2C port , and 1 serial port. Like all the boards we propose, we have enhenced the kernel in order to offer as much features as possible.
Note : This board is not using the bluetooth protocol, you will have to use a NrfDongle dongle to make it use it.

Adafruit QT PY SamD21
The Adafruit QT PY SamD21 board brings you the power of a SamD21 in one of the smallest form factor. Size and pinout is compatible with the Seeeduino XIAO board, but has more features : a reset button, a Neopixel RGB Led, and a STEMMA QT I2C connector.
Thanks to Node Blue, this board enables connecting buttons, switches, encoders, potentiometers, rotary switches, joysticks and various sensors.
By choosing the Bodac option, you'll be able to connect 5 buttons on only one input.
For example :
– with 2 encoders, 11 buttons instead of 7.
– without encoders, 15 buttons instead of 11.
Attention, this board uses an USB-C connector.

Battery + Radio NRF52840 Kit
This kit allows you to build a radio link for your steering wheel. The embedded board and the dongle are based on the NRF52840 microcontroler.
Kit contents :
– NRF52840 Feather Express board with its printed plate and an external led with connector
– NRF52Dongle (option)
– µUSB extension , so you'll be able to recharge the battery or reprogram the NRF52840 board without having to open your wheel.
– 1 power switch to switch the wheel off and save battery life.
– 10 20cm dupont cables and 10 10cm dupont cables so you can connect your buttons, rotary encoders, etc.

Pedals
Carte QTPY_HX
Pedals board QT_PY SamD21 + Hx711
This board enables connecting up to 3 load cells, buttons/encoders and various sensors, to easily build your own pedal set.
Several connectors give access to various peripherals.
Most Load Cell dedicated boards on the market use a potentiometer for sensitivity adjustment, which has many drawbacks: the potentiometer is usually located at the pedals level and is therefore difficult to adjust, moreover, they may tend to get disrupted regularly, especially on a dynamic simulator. On this PB_01 board, the measurment IC for the load cell is the Hx711, which proposes 3 different digital gains. Its 24-bit ADC makes it possible to have a high accuracy while exploiting the entire range of your sensor without needing this additional sensitivity adjustment potentiometer.
Node Blue Example for 1 Load Cell and 2 potentiometers : Hx711_2A_HID
Along with the load cell, you will have access to 7 digital or analog inputs (12 bits), to connect for example additionnal potentiometers or angular hall effect sensors. The inputs are 3.3 V and are not 5 V tolerant.
