SparkFun gator:particle Hookup Guide
Introduction
Do you have an experiment involving biometrics or particle detection?
The gator:particle is an amazing tool that uses a high-sensitivity pulse oximeter and heart-rate sensor, the
MAX30102. Similar to the SparkFun Particle Sensor, with the MAX30105 high-sensitivity optical sensor, the
gator:particle can also be used for particle detection. The primary difference between these boards is that the
SparkFun Particle Sensor also uses a green LED that requires more power than the micro:bit can provide. This
tutorial will show you how to get started using the gator:particle sensor with the gator:bit (v2) in the micro:bit
development environment.
