We designed this board to give the user a low profile button without any sharp edges. Button closes when you push it and opens when you release (momentary push button). LilyPad is a wearable e-textile technology developed by Leah Buechley and cooperatively designed by Leah and SparkFun. Each LilyPad was creatively designed to have large connecting..

Cherry MX Keyswitches are top-of-the-line mechanical keyboard switches. They’re satisfyingly “clicky”, reliable up to tens-of-millions of key presses, and a standard in gaming and programming keyboards across the globe. With the SparkFun Cherry MX Switch Breakout we have made the switches more easily adaptable to breadboard or perfboard-based proje..

Keypads are very handy input devices, but who wants to tie up seven GPIO pins, wire up a handful of pull-up resistors, and write firmware that wastes valuable processing time scanning the keys for inputs? The SparkFun Qwiic Keypad comes fully assembled and makes the development process for adding a 12 button keypad easy. No voltage translation or f..

This is a simple slide switch for the LilyPad. Use it as a simple ON/OFF switch, or to control LEDs, buzzers, sensors, etc. The swtiches on each board are rated for 4 volts at 300mA, but will work at 5 volts with a reduction in current. LilyPad is a wearable e-textile technology developed by Leah Buechley and cooperatively designed by Leah and Spa..

Knobs are a great way to finish off your project and make it easier to adjust the level of your death ray. This knob mates to a 6mm (+/- 0.3mm) shaft. The knob slides onto the potentiometer and holds tightly with a strong friction fit. The main body of these knobs is metal with a plastic insert. The outside is knurled for precise adjustment...

This is a basic 12 button keypad that has been designed for easy user input and functionality. The buttons are set up in a matrix format. This allows a microcontroller to 'scan' the 7 output pins to see which of the 12 buttons is being pressed. Each of the keypad's 12 buttons has been labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, *, and # and has been for..

The Loomia Single Backlit Button is a simple mechanical switch that comes with an LED inside. When you press the button, the circuit is completed, driving your pin high or low. Use the embedded LED to make a glowing power icon, logo, or whatever suits your fancy. Loomia parts are designed to be easily soldered together, and work well with popular ..

Knobs are a great way to finish off your project and make it easier to adjust the level of your death ray. This knob mates to a 0.25" shaft with a set screw...

Do you need that extra push over the cliff? The Small sized GTE (Goes To Eleven) Knob can fit onto potentiometers with a 6mm wide shaft thanks to a brass insert with a set screw. We know that most of you are playing at ten, but with the GTE Knob you can go... one louder. Note: It goes to eleven...

The LilyPad Reed Switch is a simple breakout for a reed switch that will make it easy to use in e-textiles circuits in exactly the same manner that you can currently use the LilyPad Button and Switch. In order to make it more durable for wearable use, we’ve used a different style of reed switch, which is insulated. This means that the same glass sw..

Cherry MX Keyswitches are top-of-the-line mechanical keyboard switches. They’re satisfyingly “clicky”, reliable up to tens-of-millions of key presses, and a standard in gaming and programming keyboards across the globe. This 'blue' version Cherry MX Switch is favored by most due to its secondary internal actuator making it less likely to "double-ta..

The Loomia Double Backlit User Interface is like the Single Backlit Button, but twice the fun! Use this part if you need to control something up and down, or right to left. Using cut-out vinyl, you can create icons and decals on fabric that show your users the button functionalities. Loomia parts are designed to be easily soldered together, and wo..

This is a "deluxe" joystick knob very similar to the thumb pads on PlayStation controllers. We specifically carry this knob to pair with our 16mm Deluxe Thumb Joystick...

This is a simple knob that connects to the small and medium sized linear slide potentiometers. Each knob uses friction to secure itself to fit onto the slide pot. Once attached, this small knob provides you with an easier to use potentiometer for your project!..
