This goes with it
Description
Product overview
- Expansion board for single-board computers with GPIO headers and additional interfaces
- Expands connectivity with headers for standard sensors and actuators
- Compatible with 40-pin GPIO connectors
- Plugs onto the GPIO header; no soldering required
- Minimal space required thanks to its compact design
Product description
An expansion board with GPIO headers allows standard sensors and actuators to be connected without soldering. The board plugs directly onto the GPIO header of the single-board computer and provides several pre-installed connector sockets for connecting modules.
The headers make the GPIO pins readily accessible. Every connection remains accessible for modifications, allowing circuits to be redesigned quickly. This eliminates the time-consuming installation of pin headers and contacts.
Applications range from sensor setups in environmental monitoring projects and simple control systems to robotics prototypes. A common scenario is setting up measurement systems with multiple sensors; the board organizes the connections clearly and reduces wiring errors.
The board requires the compatible single-board computer as well as the desired sensors and actuators. The computer should be switched off before connecting the board to prevent damage.
Safety information
The board is intended exclusively for building prototypes and for testing and development purposes. It is not intended for installation in household mains circuits. When working on or near electrical installations, consult a qualified electrician; if in doubt, consult one before commissioning.
