2. Soldering the headers
3. Plugging the board in
Once you have soldered the headers your
board is ready to be placed into the desired
mikroBUS
™
socket. Make sure to align the cut
in the lower-right part of the board with the
markings on the silkscreen at the mikroBUS
™
socket. If all the pins are aligned
correctly, push the board all the
way into the socket.
Turn the board upward again. Make sure
to align the headers so that they are
perpendicular to the board, then solder the
pins carefully.
Turn the board upside down so that
the bottom side is facing you upwards.
Place shorter pins of the header into the
appropriate soldering pads.
Before using your click board
™
, make sure
to solder 1x8 male headers to both left and
right side of the board. Two 1x8 male headers
are included with the board in the package.
4. Essential features
The frequency of PULSE click is configured
in two steps. First select between four
frequency bands by using the frequency
selector - a circular central switch in the
middle of the board. Starting from the six-o-
clock position and moving counter-clockwise
in quarters, it has 4 options: 0) Up to 100 Hz;
1) Up to 1 kHz; 2) Up to 10 kHz; and 3) Up
to 100 kHz. After you select the appropriate
position, use the onboard potentiometer to
fine-tune the desired output frequency.

PULSE click is a pulse generator with an
adjustable frequency. It carries the
NEN555
precision timer capable of producing highly
accurate time delays, and the output can
be sent to the MCU through the OUT pin,
(default mikroBUS
™
AN pin) or an interrupt
(INT pin) or an interrupt (INT pin). An extra
output pin above the mikroBUS
™
socket is
also available. Designed to use either a 3.3V
or a 5V power supply.
