1. Introduction

Once you have soldered the headers your 
board is ready to be placed into desired 
mikroBUS

™

 socket. Make sure to align the

sensor as well as 

coil antenna. 

Thunder click

™

 communicates with the 

target board microcontroller via 

™ 

SPI (MOSI, MISO, SCK, CS) and INT lines. The

Thunder click

™

 with it’s 

IC and 

coil antenna detects the presence 

and proximity of potentially hazardous 
lightning activity in the vicinity and provides 
estimated distance to the center of the 
storm. It can also provide information on 
the noise level. All these features make 
this board ideal for weather stations, sports 
equipment, pool safety, UPSs, GPSs, watches,
