BeagleBone mikroBUS Cape released by Tigal

The best thing that happened to BeagleBone since... ever!

Click boards are a huge success. With over 70 click boards currently available, 20 more in the making,
we've covered every major aspect of your development. More and more open-source communities are
adopting mikroBUS standard as the best solution for adding new features to their design. Today we are
happy to bring click boards to a wildly popular and fast growing community of BeagleBone. For those
who are still not familiar with it, BeagleBone and is a credit-card-sized Linux computer that connects
to the Internet and runs software such as Android 4.0 and Ubuntu. It's equipped with plenty of I/O and
processing power for real-time analysis provided by TI OMAP application processors. BeagleBone can be
complemented with cape plug-in boards to augment functionality.

Our distributor Tigal developed a unique cape featuring 4 mikroBUS sockets. It has a DIP switch used to
select up to four addresses and allow simultaneous use of other Capes. The BeagleBone mikroBUS Cape
works only with Click boards that require 3.3V power, but that's over 70% of all Clicks, so don't worry.
For complete specification, pinout and examples, please visit mikroBUS cape Wiki Page.
Cape costs $18.00 and can be purchased at Tigal's online store.

Great work guys! Thumbs up for the Tigal team!

Yours sincerely,
