Adafruit 70-pin Hirose Receptacle Header for Intel Edison - 3mm Height

We're big fans of the Intel® Edison Compute Module, but the connector's not generic like everyday headers and can be a bit difficult to find. No longer! This 70-pin receptacle header for the Intel Edison connects to the Edison Compute Module and allows breakout boards to be added more easily.

It's a tiny 70-pin connector whose main function is interfacing with the Intel Edison. The connector is fine pitch and fragile, and we've found it hard to remove once attached to your Edison if it isn't soldered down already, so exercise caution.

Please note, these are rated for only 30 connection cycles. Use care and pull directly perpendicular to the connector plane to avoid bending or damaging it. Once added, it'll increase the height of your Edison board's socket by 3mm. This elevation allows you to clear the metal can of the Edison and possibly even tuck a few thin components or chips underneath for a more compact PCB design.

One connector per order, the Intel Edison is not included.
