Each  mikroBUS™ host connector 
consists of two 1x8 female headers 
containing pins that are most likely 
to be used in the target accessory 
board. There are three groups of 
communication pins: SPIUART and 
I
2
C communication. There are also 
single pins for PWM,  Interrupt
Analog input,  Reset and Chip 
Select
. Pinout contains two power 
groups:  +5V and GND on one 
header and +3.3V and GND on 
the other 1x8 header. mikroBUS™ 
host  connector  perfecty  fits  into 
standard breadboards.
As we in mikroElektronika see it, 
plug-and-play devices with minimum 
settings are the future in embedded 
world. This is why our engineers 
have come up with a simple but 
brilliant pinout with lines that 
most of today’s accessory boards 
require, which almost completely 
eliminates the need of additional 
hardware settings. We called this 
new standard the mikroBUS™.
What is mikroBUS™?
mikroBUS™ host connector
mikroBUS™ is not made to be only a 
part of our development boards.  You 
can freely place mikroBUS™ host 
connectors in your final PCB designs, 
as long as you clearly mark them 
on the silkscreen with mikroBUS™ 
footprint specifications which can be 
downloaded from the following link:

mikroElektronika’s portfolio of almost 
200 accessory boards is now enriched 
by an additional set of mikroBUS™ 
compatible  Click boards™. It is our 
intention to provide the community 
with as much of these boards as 
possible, so you will be able to 
expand your designs with additional 
functionality and minimim hardware 
configuration. Just plug and play.
You are allowed to produce and sell 
your own mikroBUS™ compatible 
boards, as long as you place 
mikroBUS™ logo on the board 
silkscreen. It would be nice to 
hear about it, so send us an E-mail 
to 
office@mikroe.com
. You are 
not allowed to call it “Click board” 
though, because “Click” is the 
trademark of mikroElektronika.
Can I make mikroBUS boards?
Integration in your designs
Click boards are plug-n-play
