The PICAXE-20M project board provides a rapid development system for the PICAXE-20M microcontroller. It provides the basic download circuit, connection points for inputs/outputs and an optional Darlington driver buffered output circuit.
For use with PICAXE-20M microcontroller 13-0876
Provides basic download circuit and input/output connection points
Q. It says on the data sheet that the board requires 3AA batteries not a 9V battery. So do i need to buy a 3 x AA battery holder here... https://www.rapidonline.com/Electrical-Power/Battery-holder-for-3-x-AA-Keystone-2464-18-3685
Kind regards
A. Hi Andrew. Thank you for your question. A battery holder is required: 18-0126 is a 3AA holder. If you use a 9V battery it will blow up the chip on the board.
