## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE06709:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/CE06709:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

his MicroPython WBUS-DIP28 connector gives access to 24 GPIO in a DIP format, and allows you to power the board with an external battery.

On the back of the connector is one 20-pin mezzanine bus connector for plugging in a [TILE-SENSA](https://core-electronics.com.au/micropython-tile-sensor-temperature-humidity-light.html) or [TILE-LED36](https://core-electronics.com.au/micropython-tile-6x6-rgb-led-array.html) directly.

On top of WBUS-DIP28 any pyboard D can be plugged in. The Micro-USB ports must face opposite directions: the USB FS is on WBUS-DIP28 and USB HS port is on PYBD.

The battery charger on this board is BQ2407 and charges Li-Ion battery via USB FS port, which is on the WBUS-DIP28.

In addition there can be headers soldered to the adapter and be plugged into a standard bread board.

This DIP adapter can be used with all pyboard D variants.
