Welcome back to the Digilent Blog!<\/p>\n

Many of you will likely expect my favorite product would be some sort of Pmod and normally you would be correct. However, there are just so many Pmods I found myself having difficulty choosing just one to be my favorite. It was around that time while I was considering the Pmods that they all had something in common when I was working with them individually: the chipKIT Starter Kit<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This kit has nearly everything that I have ever wanted to use with a Pmod: the wiring options, op-amps, LEDs for signal testing, resistors, motors, shift registers, you name it. Many times a Pmod, such as the PmodENC<\/a> or the PmodDA4<\/a>\u00a0simply work better in conjunction with other components. But where do you find all of these components?<\/p>\n

You guessed it; the chipKIT Starter Kit. I can’t count the number of times it has had exactly\u00a0the item that I was looking for. This is\u00a0why the chipKIT Starter Kit is my favorite Digilent product.<\/p>\n
