The Qwiic Cable is ideal for connecting Qwiic boards that need to be placed at a distance from the controller. However, it should be noted that I2C signals may degrade over longer distances, and it is recommended to keep the connections to 1 meter or less. Despite this, successful daisy-chaining of boards 2 meters away from a RedBoard has been achieved, although results may vary.
Being a part of the SparkFun Qwiic connect system, this cable is a component of an ecosystem of I2C sensors, actuators, shields, and cables that streamline prototyping and reduce the likelihood of errors. All Qwiic-enabled boards use a common 1mm pitch, 4-pin JST connector, which minimizes the required PCB space. Additionally, the polarized connections ensure that the cable cannot be connected incorrectly, further enhancing its user-friendly design.
