The PowerBRICKs are modules that can supply either 3.3V, 5V, 9V or 12V to your circuit from USB. The first change is that the PowerBRICKs are now over 15% off.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally we have added another option for carting PowerBRICKs for your convenience, because unlike the Tin Man, we have a heart. You see, previously if you wanted to add all four PowerBRICKs you had to select each option and go through the process of adding them individually to your cart.<\/p>\n<p>Now, you can add all four <a href=\"https:\/\/digilent.com\/shop\/powerbricks-breadboardable-dual-output-usb-power-supplies\/\">PowerBRICKS<\/a> at once. Just select the radio button that lists all four voltage options.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/digilent.com\/shop\/powerbricks-breadboardable-dual-output-usb-power-supplies\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-21989 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/digilent.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Capture-600x323.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"323\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digilent.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Capture-600x323.png 600w, https:\/\/digilent.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Capture-768x413.png 768w, https:\/\/digilent.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Capture-1024x551.png 1024w, https:\/\/digilent.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Capture-800x430.png 800w, https:\/\/digilent.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Capture.png 1919w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You may also notice that selecting this option gives you an additional 5% off!
