Datasheet

1. Introduction
Once you have soldered the headers your
board is ready to be placed into desired
mikroBUS
socket. Make sure to align the
cut in the lower-right part of the board
with the markings on the silkscreen at
the mikroBUS
socket. If all of the pins are
aligned correctly, push the board all
the way into the socket.

4. Essential features
Turn the board upward again. Make sure
to align the headers so that they are
perpendicular to the board, then solder the
pins carefully.
Turn the board upside down so that
bottom side is facing you upwards.
Place shorter pins of the header into the
appropriate soldering pads.
Before using your click
board, make sure
to solder 1x8 male headers to both left
and right side of the board. Two 1x8 male

Thunder click
is an accessory board in
mikroBUS
form factor. It’s a compact and
easy solution for adding lightning sensor to
your design. It features AS3935 lightning
sensor as well as MA5532 coil antenna.
Thunder click
communicates with the
target board microcontroller via mikroBUS
SPI (MOSI, MISO, SCK, CS) and INT lines. The
board is designed to use 3.3V or 5V power
supply. LED diode (GREEN) indicates the
presence of power supply.
Thunder click
Thunder click
with it’s AS3935 IC and
MA5532 coil antenna detects the presence
and proximity of potentially hazardous
lightning activity in the vicinity and provides
estimated distance to the center of the
storm. It can also provide information on
the noise level. All these features make
this board ideal for weather stations, sports
equipment, pool safety, UPSs, GPSs, watches,
cellular phones and many more.
