GENIE 8-pin Microcontroller System Kits

Genie Brand: Genie

GENIE is a low-cost microcontroller programming system designed exclusively for schools and colleges. The free, user-friendly flowchart software allows you to add intelligence and control to your new and existing design projects. No separate programmer is required and downloading is via a USB or serial cable.

Available from Rapid are three exclusive kits that have been designed to provide a fun and challenging introduction to the GENIE microcontroller system.

13-6009 GENIE 08 Activity kit
This kit provides a great introduction to the GENIE system. It allows students to control two LEDs and a piezo sounder for making sounds. These outputs can be made to respond to a push switch (for sensing touch) and an LDR (for sensing light).

13-6011 GENIE 08 Project kit
This 8-pin kit is ideal for adding intelligence to student projects. It is based on an 8-pin GENIE 08 microcontroller providing off-board connections for 2 digital inputs (1 of which can also be used for sensing an analogue signal) and 3 outputs (one of which is buffered to provide medium-power output suitable for controlling lamps and small motors).

13-6012 GENIE 08 Jukebox kit
This kit allows students to have fun with 2-channel polyphonic music by making use of GENIE's unique ability to play several notes at the same time. Two LED outputs flash in time to the music. A single digital input switch is provided to control the music, such as when creating a musical box project that starts the music playing when the lid is opened.

The kits are designed to work with the GENIE flowchart programming software for Microsoft Windows™ and there are free online resources and community website at www.genieonline.com.
