Micromite LCD BackPack kit (programmed for Boat Computer)

A kit of all the parts required to build the 2.8-inch version of the Micromite LCD BackPack. This includes:

PCB
2.8-inch touchscreen with 320x240 pixels
Programmed microcontroller (BoatComputerFull.hex) and IC socket
3.3V low-dropout regulator
Capacitors (all ceramic)
10kΩ resistor and 100Ω trimpot
Pin headers (male and female)
Tapped spacers and machine screws
UB3 lid (3mm laser-cut acrylic)

The PCBs, programmed microcontroller and regulator are also available separately. We can also supply a suitable GPS module although one is not included in this kit.

For assembly instructions, see the article in the February 2016 issue.

PLEASE NOTE: the 10µF and 47µF capacitors supplied are non-polarised SMD ceramic types. They have no markings and can be installed either way around. You can tell them apart as the 10µF capacitors are in a pack of two.

Also note: kits sold starting 11th May 2016 will include 4 x 6mm machine screws, 4 x 10mm (or 8mm) machine screws and 4 x 3mm ID 6mm OD 1mm thick Nylon spacers. The longer screws & spacers are to attach the BackPack to the supplied lid. If not using the lid, place the washers under the 10mm screw heads.
