Micromite LCD BackPack kit (programmed for Energy Meter)

THIS IS NOT A COMPLETE KIT FOR THE APPLIANCE ENERGY METER.

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

BackPack PCB
2.8-inch touchscreen with 320x240 pixels
Programmed microcontroller (0411606A.hex) and IC socket
3.3V low-dropout regulator
Capacitors (all ceramic)
10kΩ resistor and 100Ω trimpot
Pin headers (male and female)
Tapped spacers, machine screws and Nylon washers

Note: the lid is NOT included in this kit as it is a different size than the standard LCD BackPack and is available separately.

The PCBs (both for the Energy Meter and LCD BackPack), programmed microcontroller and regulator are also available separately. We can also supply a suitable real-time clock 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.
