Raspberry Pi / Accessories / Cables

The cable is easiest way ever to connect to your microcontroller/Raspberry Pi/WiFi router serial console port. Inside the big USB plug is a USBSerial conversion chip and at the end of the 36" cable are four wire - red power, black ground, white RX into USB port, and green TX out of the USB port. The power pin provides the 5V @ 500mA direct from the USB port and the...

The Raspberry Pi has an on-board audio jack, which is super handy for all kinds of sound effects and speech, just plug and go! However, for when you want better audio for music playback, a USB audio card can greatly improve the sound quality and volume. That's because the on-board audio is generated by a PWM output and is minimally filtered. Don't get us wrong, it's...

That new Raspberry Pi® Model B+ computer you just got has a row of 2x20 pin headers soldered on - those are the GPIO (general purpose input/output) pins, and for those of us who like to hack electronics, they are where the real fun is. By programming the Pi, you can twiddle those pins high or low, send and receive I2C and SPI data, and access the 3V and 5V power...

This cable will let you swap out the stock 150mm long flex cable from a Raspberry Pi Camera (either 'classic' or 'NoIR' type) or Raspberry Pi Display, for a different size. Works great, just carefully open the connector on the Pi and slip this one in. This cable is 300mm long We have cables in 50mm, 100mm, 200mm and 300mm so you can have the perfect fit. Each order...

Stop fiddling with SD card sockets in the back of your latest gadget, and streeeeeeeeeetch out with a Micro SD Card Extender . This simple, but effective device gives you a long flexible cable, a psuedo Micro SD card on one end, and a matching micro SD card socket on the other. Plug in the card half and attach the socket wherever you like. This is a great hack for...

That new Raspberry Pi 500 computer you just got has a row of 2x20 pin headers on the right side - those are the GPIO (general purpose input/output) pins, and for those of us who like to hack electronics, they are where the real fun lies. By programming the Pi, you can twiddle those pins high or low, send and receive I2C and SPI data, and access the 3V and 5V power...

Give your Pi some reach with this GPIO extender cable, which has two matching connectors on the end of a 12" (300mm) long gray cable. Plug one end into your Pi and the other end will have a boxed male header you can plug in a Pi Plate that is expecting to go onto a Pi. This cable is not compatible with the Raspberry Pi Model B+ Please note! Some electronics do not...

Extra-long and bendy, this is just like your classic Model A or B Pi GPIO cable but 12" (300mm) long and fitted through a tube so that it's a little more flexible in all directions. This cable is not compatible with the Raspberry Pi Model B+ Please note: These cables come with strain-relief clips that make the connector a bit taller than 'classic' GPIO cables. If you...

We originally stocked these cables for the Raspberry Pi Model A or B computer, but then the B+ and beyond came out and those all have 2x20 pins. So now we've got a ton of these cables just sittin' around. And we wanted to clear out some space for more NEW goodies, so they're going on the clearance rack! Even if you don't have a Pi, these are great ribbon cables, in...
