Parallax Inc.
We’re making some changes at Parallax to really focus in on what we do best: our educational programs and our own custom multicore microcontrollers. This focus means more curriculum on learn.parallax.com, more tools and support for the Propeller, more American manufacturing, and a massive sale to simplify the product line!

Proximity 3 Click
64211
-
Parallax speeds the process of Propeller 2 development through our partnership with MikroE, who has created a family of 850+ Clicks for most I/O functions you may envision. For each of the Click boards stocked by Parallax, you will find a documented Spin 2 code example on our Propeller GitHub Object Exchange. Connect your Click boards to the Propeller 2 Evaluation Board or P2-EC Edge Breakout Breadboard using the #64008 P2 to MikroBus Click Adapter. Proximity 3 click is an intelligent proximity and light sensing device, which features the VCNL4200 sensor from Vishay – high sensitivity long distance proximity sensor (PS), ambient light sensor (ALS) and 940 nm IRED, all in one small package.

FlexiForce Sensor Demo Kit
30056
-
The Flexiforce sensor features a pressure sensitive disc pad on the end of an ultra-thin (0.008 in.) flexible printed circuit ribbon that can be easily integrated into force measurement applications. Note that the flexible ribbon is to accomodate optimal placement of the pressure-sensitive disc; the sensor does not measure force applying curvature to the ribbon itself.

5-Position Switch
27801
-
The 5-Position Switch is a normally open contact switch. It has a nice snappy feel, and returns to the center/un-pressed position immediately when it is released. By monitoring the input state of five pins, it’s easy for any Parallax microcontroller to detect whether the switch is in the up, down, left, right, or pressed position. It is possible for more than one position to make contact at a time, such as pressed+right, left+down, or pressed+right+down, for a total of 18 output states.

CM2302 Digital Temperature & Humidity Sensor
28059
-
Do you need convenient environmental input for your microcontroller projects? The CM02302 supplies both temperature and relative humidity data when queried. This sensor is factory pre-calibrated, so you won’t need to calibrate it before using it in your project.

QTI Sensor
555-27401
-
The QTI Sensor is a close-proximity infrared emitter/receiver that is able to differentiate between a dark surface) with low IR reflectivity) and a light surface (with high IR reflectivity). These little sensors can be very handy for line following, maze navigation, or sensing the outer rim of a SumoBot ring. Wiring options allow it to be used digitally for fast black/white line following, or as an analog sensor to detect different shades of gray. A daylight filter is built into the sensor.

SF30/C High Speed Laser Rangefinder – 100 M
28058
-
The SF30/C High Speed Laser Rangefinders can output an amazing 18317 readings per second. Lightweight and compact, this 0–100 meter rangefinder is designed to detect terrain and obstacles or create maps from moving vehicles and UAVs. It uses a time-of-flight system to make accurate distance measurements that are not affected by surface texture, speed, wind, changes in barometric pressure, noise, ambient light, terrain, or air temperature.

PIR Sensor With LED Signal
555-28027
-
The PIR Sensor detects motion by measuring changes in the infrared (heat) levels emitted by surrounding objects. When motion is detected a LED lights up the lens dome as a visual signal, and the module also outputs a high signal on its output pin.

MEMSIC 2125 Dual-axis Accelerometer
28017
-
The MEMSIC 2125 is a low cost, dual-axis thermal accelerometer capable of measuring tilt, acceleration, rotation, and vibration with a range of ±3 g. For integration into existing applications, the MEMSIC 2125 is electrically compatible with other popular accelerometers. MEMSIC provides the 2125 in a surface-mount format. Parallax mounts the circuit on a small PCB, providing all I/O connections so it can easily be inserted on a breadboard or through-hole prototype area.
