Raspberry Pi / Cables / Raspberry Pi A+, B+, & Pi 2

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...

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...

Use this 25 cm long cable with our 40-pin FPC to 2x20 IDC Plug and Socket adapter PCBs to extend your Raspberry Pi's GPIO capabilities. Note you'll have to keep an eye on where Pin 1 is on the ribbon cable, on the adapter PCBs, and your HAT or Bonnet of choice. Works great with any two of the following: 40-pin FPC to Straight 2x20 IDC Male Plug Header. 40-pin FPC to...

Here is an easy solution for extending your Raspberry Pi's GPIO capabilities. This is a 40-pin FPC to Straight 2x20 IDC Female Socket Header Adapter Use this adapter, which will act as an extender for all 40 pins to give you a streeeeetch. Simply plug the socket side into the Raspberry Pi. Then, keeping an eye where Pin 1 is, insert your FPC ribbon cable into the...

Oof - you got a Raspberry Pi Model A+ or B+ that you want to have work with some old kit or plate or breakout or something and it uses the classic 26-pinout. Very frustrating, it is...unless you have this ingenious 'downgrade' GPIO cable. It has a 40-pin socket on one end, but only the first 26 pins have a cable and the other end matches any sort of Cobbler or...

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...
