It’s a good choice and perfect gift for your friends, family or kids who are obsessed with electronics, programming or robotics to take their first steps on electronics journey!

The most complete starter Kit with high quality components and sensors

Quantity and quality are both important here in Elegoo MEGA 2560 starter kit. The most essential parts in this kit are MEGA 2560 controller board and expansion board, which is a perfect clone with excellent product finish Compatible with Arduino projects. Besides, we offer other over 60 kinds of components and sensors from small parts like LED diodes, resistors and potentiometer to big parts like LCD1602, RFID module and 830 tie-points breadboard, which meet your demands for your different projects either it is simple or complex.

Sturdy quality is definitely the most important thing to Elegoo even with so many components provided we never compromised on the quality. Instead we keep improving our product quality in our own factory and we produce the products by ourselves under high standards and strict quality control. Pins and wires on some of the parts like LCD16502 and motors have been pre-soldered which is very convenient and saves your time.

LCD1602 Display module

LCD1602 module is a display that has an LED backlight and can display two rows with up to 16 characters on each row. You can see the rectangles for each character on the display and the pixels that make up each character. The display is just white on blue and is intended for showing text.

Lining up the display with the top of the breadboard helps to identify its pins without too much counting, especially if the breadboard has its rows numbered with row 1 as the top row of the board. Do not forget, the long yellow lead that links the slider of the pot to pin 3 of the display. The 'pot' is used to control the contrast of the display.

DC Motors and L293D Transistor

In this project you will learn how to control a small DC motor using a Mega2560 board and a L293D transistor, which is a very useful chip. It can actually control two motors independently. We are just using half the chip in this lesson, most of the pins on the right hand side of the chip are for controlling a second motor.

L293D is quadruple high-current half-H drivers and designed to provide bidirectional drive currents of up to 1 A at voltages from 4.5 V to 36 V. The L293D is also designed to provide bidirectional drive currents of up to 600-mA at voltages from 4.5 V to 36 V and drive inductive loads such as relays, solenoids, dc and bipolar stepping motors, as well as other high-current/high-voltage loads in positive-supply applications.

74HC595 Shift Register and LEDs

74HC595 is a Serial to Parallel Converter which has eight outputs (perfect) and three inputs that you use to feed data into it a bit at a time.

This chip makes it a little slower to drive the LEDs (you can only change the LEDs about 500,000 times a second instead of 8,000,000 a second) but it's still really fast, way faster than humans can detect, so it's worth it!

74HC595 shift register is a type of chip that holds what can be thought of as eight memory locations, each of which can either be a 1 or a 0. To set each of these values on or off, we feed in the data using the 'Data' and 'Clock' pins of the chip.

Question:	Can the pieces be taken apart to build something new or can you only build just one project
Answer:	Yes, they snap together and can easily be taken apart (assuming they aren't excessively abused)
Question:	Does the SC-300 come with the red fan and motor that is shown in the 100 kit?? Thank you in advance
Answer:	yes! My two 8 year old grandboys, gravitated to this kit and both became competent with 24 hours. The experimented and created their own complex circuitry. They even 'invented' some unlikely ways to use the components. For example, the red fan blade became a helicopter blade that whirled off the motor and across the room. With a little organizational control and introduction from an organized adult, they followed the rules and quickly adapted to taking turns and encouraging each other. I was very surprised and pleased by the way they accepted the challenges and commanded the concept of using and controlling the flow of e- to do work.
Question:	Would a 9 year old girl like this
Answer:	My 9 year old daughter got the 40 project one for a birthday present and wasn't excited. Then on a rainy day she took it out and did all 40 and was so excited! Now she wants this set.

Compatibility with Official Arduino IDE, Software, Sendsors and Codes

Arduino is an open-source platform used for building electronics projects. Arduino consists of both a physical programmable circuit board (often referred to as a microcontroller) and a piece of software, or IDE (Integrated Development Environment) that runs on your computer, used to write and upload computer code to the physical board.

For the reason of open source, the manufacture of Arduino boards and software distribution by anyone is permitted. Arduino boards are available commercially in preassembled form, or as do-it-yourself (DIY) kits.

Elegoo is one of the manufacturer on the market, whose clone products are compatible with the official Arduinomicrocontroller boards, they can use the official Arduino software, sensors and codes.

Learn Electronics and Programming with ELEGOO

The UNO boards can be used as the brains behind almost any electronics project. UNO can interact with buttons, LEDs, motors, speakers, GPS units, cameras, the internet, and even your smart-phone or your TV! By connecting the UNO board with a personal computer via a USB cable and uploading programs to the board, users can create digital devices and interactive objects that can sense and control objects in the physical and digital world like robots or even honest fortune-telling machines.

For this Elegoo Super Starter Kit, we provide a 24-lesson tutorial, introducing the basic setting of the software IDE, the working principles of the sensors and the simple program to enable the UNO board to control the sensors.

This Kit is suitable for 10-year-old and up. Younger kids should be under supervision and guidance of adults.

74HC595 and LEDs

74HC595 is a Serial to Parallel Converter which has eight outputs (perfect) and three inputs that you use to feed data into it a bit at a time.

This chip makes it a little slower to drive the LEDs (you can only change the LEDs about 500,000 times a second instead of 8,000,000 a second) but it's still really fast, way faster than humans can detect, so it's worth it.

74HC595 shift register is a type of chip that holds what can be thought of as eight memory locations, each of which can either be a 1 or a 0. To set each of these values on or off, we feed in the data using the 'Data' and 'Clock' pins of the chip.

4 digit 7 segment display

7 segment displays consist of 7 LEDs, called segments, arranged in the shape of an “8”. Most 7-segment displays actually have 8 segments, with a dot on the right side of the digit that serves as a decimal point. When using 4-digit 7-segment display, the common anode or common cathode pin is used to control which digit is displayed. Even though there is only one digit working, the principle of Persistence of Vision enables you to see all numbers displayed because each the scanning speed is so fast that you hardly notice the intervals. By building the circuit and editing the program, users can make a simple display showing certain numbers, or more complexly, a count-up timer or a elecrical rolling dice.

Stepper Motor

Stepper motors are DC motors that move in discrete steps. They have multiple coils that are organized in groups called "phases". By energizing each phase in sequence, the motor will rotate, one step at a time.

With a computer controlled stepping you can achieve very precise positioning and/or speed control. For this reason, stepper motors are the motor of choice for many precision motion control applications.

the simplest way of interfacing a unipolar stepper motor to UNO board is to use a breakout

for ULN2003A transistor array chip, applying voltage to each of the coils in a specific sequence.

Redesigned interfaces to meet demands of different users

In the version of robot car kit V1.0, we used the original expansion board which has many pins available on the board and enables you to add extra sensors than what we provide in the kit as to fulfill more functions and makes it more personalized. But it will require a certain level of electronics knowledge and DIY experiences otherwise you may easily burn your sensors and boards. To avoid those potential errors from novice user we redesigned the expansion board and cables by adding XH2.54 interfaces in robot car kit V3.0, which makes wiring become very handy and easy and almost impossible to make mistakes when installing sensors. We also reserved the pins on the board so DIY lovers can customize it and have more possibilities. With that being said it really depends on your situation and background that which kit suits you more. Either way, we have a perfect solution for you.

User questions & answers

Question:	year old
Answer:	I am not sure if you are asking whether or not this is a good present for a 6 year old or not. But, my son is 6 years old and he absolutely LOVES this set. His 13 year old sister actually likes playing with it as well. We are so impressed with it, that when he is complete with all of the projects, we are considering getting one of the more elaborate sets. If anyone has a 6 year old boy interested in this type of stuff, I recommend getting a set.
Question:	Should i start my almost 6 year old with this set or with the SC-300 (I have a consignment store bought one in my closet)? Does the "junior" matter
Answer:	I bought my 7 year old the jr and now wish I had opted for a bigger set. If you already have the 300, I would use that one. They sell an upgrade kit that takes the jr to a 300, so if you bought the jr and then gave the 300 to your child, you'd be duplicating half the kit.
Question:	I see mostly children ages 5-7 are getting this. Do you think a 12 yr old would appreciate this
Answer:	My kids are 10 & 12. They Love it! Plus it has upgrades to keep them happy when they get through the lesson book. Personally, I would not get this for a 5-7 yr old....it's electricity...no matter how safe they've made it.
Question:	years old
Answer:	I bought it for my (advanced) 5 year old son. He loves it. I helped him with the first 2 projects and then after that I let him build each one and would show him if he made a mistake and how to correct it. You will definately have to explain to them what is going on though because they are too young to understand that from the manual themselves. Otherwise the parts snap together really well, the instructions aren't that hard and after each project, he likes to move parts around to see what changes.
