done the hard work of creating a breakout board for you. Now, you just need one
board instead two (the Imp card and the original Imp breakout) to get started with the
Electric Imp!
The imp002 breakout board contains a 3.3V TPS62172 step-down regulator (and the
inductor/capacitors supporting it). This regulator allows for input voltages anywhere
between 3.3V and 17V (voltages in the upper end of that range may produce some
heat). This breakout can even support up to 500mA of continuous current. Like the
Imp card, the imp002 module contains an embedded ARM Cortex-M3
microprocessor, an onboard WiFi module, and an antenna. Additionally, we have
broken out 12 I/O pins from the imp002 module to standard 0.1" headers. Much like
the Imp card, these pins can be used for a variety of functions.
Note: Check out the Hookup Guide in the Documents section below to learn how to,
not only, how to set up imp002 Breakout but also a few fun circuit experiments as
well!
