================= =================
mikroBUS is an open standard for add-on boards for sensors, connectivity, displays, storage and more with over 1,400 available from just a single source, `MikroE <https://www.mikroe.com/click>`_. With the flexibility of all of the most common embedded serial busses, UART, I2C and SPI, along with ADC, PWM and GPIO functions, it is a great solution for connecting all sorts of electronics.
