Silicon Chirp kit

A complete kit for Silicon Chirp. All you need to add is the CR2032 lithium coin cell.

Note that due to the way programming works and how sound selection works, it's possible that the chip will start up in Frog or Canary mode rather than the default (Cricket). See the instructions in the article for how to change it back to Cricket if that happens.

Also note that the photo show the kit after assembly.

Cat No SC6620. Price: AUD $25.00 ¹
