  • Matrix TSL E-blocks2 Keypad Board
    Item Number:
    BL0138

    The E-blocks2 Keypad board (BL0138) is a useful tool as it allows you to enter numeric and textual data into the embedded system. The switches are all push to make type and read by controlling the logic level of the columns and reading back the state of the rows.

  • Matrix TSL E-Blocks2
    Item Number:
    BL0167

    The E-blocks2 LED board (BL0167) allows you to indicate what is happening or the ongoing real-time status of the system. LEDs can be driven digitally using on or off-output states or an analog way using pulse width modulation (PWM) techniques.

  • Matrix TSL BL0080 E-blocks2 PIC Multiprogrammer
    Item Number:
    BL0080

    The 8-bit microcontroller multi-programmer connects to a PC via USB to provide you with a powerful microcontroller and debugging platform.

  • Matix TSL Computer Science Circuit Boards
    Item Number:
    BL0011

    The USB-connected 8-bit PIC programmer (BL0011) enables robust microcontroller programming and debugging on a PC. It supports programming languages like Assembly, C, and Flowcode, with a free download option for the mLoader tool to program the PIC on the board.

  • Matrix TSL BL0167 E-blocks2 Prototype Board
    Item Number:
    BL0117

    The E-blocks2 Prototype Board (BL0117) provides an array of standard 2.54mm pitch holes which can be used to solder electronics onto the E-blocks board permanently.  The board is also supplied with a small breadboard, allowing for temporary electronics to be created and tested with the E-blocks2 system.

  • Matrix TSL E-blocks2 Switch Board
    Item Number:
    BL0145

    The E-blocks2 Switch x 8 (BL0145) is a valuable tool allowing you to control what is happening in the system. The switches are push to make and active high, meaning the voltage to the microcontroller port pins is low when the switch is not pressed and high when the switch is pressed.

  • Electrical Installation Lab Solutions and Curricula

    The electrical installation range has been designed to meet the requirements of the popular City and Guilds courses for both electricians and plumbers. The objective here is to help students understand the fundamental theory and practice of the Electrical Science parts of units 7202, 7365 with hands-on activities.

  • Modern electrical machines training system is a revolutionary way of safely studying the characteristics of different motor types in a learning environment. This solution includes eight different types of machine, integrated power supply and control box and PC-based applications for advanced controller of the different machine types.

  • Matrix TSL Electrical Machines Core Set
    Item Number:
    EM7632

    The electrical machines core set is almost the same product as the complete system, however the only two machines included are the DC and Three Phase machines for basic study. All other machines in the range can be added individually upon request.

  • Electrical Machines Curricula

    Matrix offers four separate curriculum manuals for teaching electrical machines principles using manual control with external meters, using PC control and also control using MATLAB.
