We tried existing breakouts but they came with a range of challenges - awkward placement, twisted cables, incorrect pin directions or simply not accommodating a breadboard directly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe PinPal is our answer to these problems!\u003c\/strong\u003e The kit includes a pre-soldered PinPal PCB which fits into standard breadboards and has a unique 'underside' connector for the included ribbon cable, which connects to your Pi 500. This board breaks out the GPIO pins into your breadboard's lanes, clearly labelling each GPIO pin number including special highlighting of the GND pins to help you find your way. Perfect for using with our jumper wire kit!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe colourful ribbon cable has notches (which match the Pi 500 and socket connector) to ensure you don't fit it the wrong way round. Just be sure to check the assembly guide (coming soon!) as the cable has different custom connectors specifically for each side. \u003cstrong\u003eWhen fitting, you will need to create a bend\/fold in the cable to assist it in laying flat as pictured\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to this unique 'underside' socket orientation, the breadboard needs to be lifted a few millimetres. For this, we include 4x rubber feet to fit on the underside of your breadboard (see below image).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"PinPal Side\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0176\/3274\/files\/PinPal-side.jpg?v=1615465885\u0026amp;width=700\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible with Raspberry Pi 500 and 400 only\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBreaks out your Pi 500 GPIO pins to breadboard lanes for really convenient 'to the side' prototyping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnique 'underside' socket connector reduces messy ribbon cable clutter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll GPIO pins clearly labelled including GND pin highlighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes PinPal PCB (pre-soldered) and custom GPIO ribbon cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo soldering required\u003c\/strong\u003e :)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes required rubber feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePackage Contents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x PinPal PCB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Custom GPIO ribbon cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4x Rubber Feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBreadboard and Pi 500 not included\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eImportant Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe have tested this with breadboards we sell in the store.
