Its compact size and convenient features make it an ideal tool for the student and educator. For educators, the BOE provides a clean, efficient platform for the original What's a Microcontroller lessons, or your own BASIC Stamp-based curriculum. It does not include a BASIC Stamp module so you will need to purchase one separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRev E includes an uprated power 5 V power supply to 3 amps from 1 amp to provide more power for projects and servo control. Rev E also features reverse polarity protection at power inputs. In addition, short-circuit protection at all power outputs shuts down the board if needed, minimizing the risk of damage to your project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eAbout Boe-Bot Robot Support\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo use the Board of Education USB Rev E with a Boe-Bot Robot, this \u003ca href=\"\/products\/battery-holder-5-aa-barrel-jack\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e5AA battery pack\u003c\/a\u003e is required; it is secured to the chassis with Nylon flat-head screws to the rear standoffs.
