ZIP Halo HD board for the BBC micro:bit incorporates 60 individually addressable full colour ZIP LEDs. It also breaks out P1 and P2 to a standard 0.1” footprint, it features a MEMS microphone for detection of sound and a piezo buzzer to play sound. If that weren't enough, it also features an on-board real time clock (RTC) controlled by I2C lines from the microbit. The board also has two M3 mounting holes.
