2. Soldering the headers Before using your click board , make sure to solder 1x8 male headers to both left and right side of the board. Two 1x8 male headers are included with the board in the package. 1 4. Essential features REED click 2 3 A reed switch comprises two thin magnetic contacts sealed inside a glass casing. One contact is a magnetic north pole, the other a south. The two contacts are separate, until a magnetic field is applied which snaps them shut, activating the switch. Once the magnet is removed, they open up again. Reed switches are widely used in a variety of Turn the board upside down so that Turn the board upward again. Make sure applications: door sensors, liquid level sensors the bottom side is facing you upwards. to align the headers so that they are (by employing magnetic floats), but also Place shorter pins of the header into the perpendicular to the board, then solder the protective casings for phones, tablets, ebook appropriate soldering pads. pins carefully. readers etc. 1. Introduction REED click is a simple board that carries a standard (Single Pole Single Throw 3. Plugging the board in Normally Open) reed switch a simple click hermetically sealed switch that can be Once you have soldered the headers your activated with a magnet or electromagnetic board is ready to be placed into the desired BOARDS coil (in other words a magnet-activated low- mikroBUS socket. Make sure to align the cut www.mikroe.com current relay). A single mikroBUS pin (CS) in the lower-right part of the board with the connected to the MCU is outputting a 1 or 0 markings on the silkscreen at the mikroBUS depending on the whether the switch is close socket.
