Key Features
- Full Pin Access: Breaks out every Micro:bit edge-connector pin - GPIO P0 through P20, 3V, GND, I2C, and SPI lines - so you never run out of connections.
- Breadboard-Friendly T-Shape: The distinctive T-shaped design sits across a standard breadboard, leaving maximum free rows on both sides for wiring sensors, LEDs, motors, and more.
- Clear Silk-Screen Labels: Every pin is printed with its Micro:bit function name, eliminating guesswork and reducing wiring errors during prototyping.
- Secure Edge Connector Slot: Snug card-edge socket holds the Micro:bit firmly in place, ensuring reliable electrical contact even during handling.
- No Soldering Required: Pre-soldered header pins mean you can go from unboxing to prototyping in under a minute.
- Durable FR4 Construction: Industrial-grade PCB material withstands repeated insertions and classroom use.
- Compact & Lightweight: Easy to carry in a project kit or store alongside your Micro:bit and breadboard.
