Pimoroni Breakout Garden for Raspberry Pi (I2C)

Grow your projects seamlessly with Breakout Garden, perfect for integrating multiple Pimoroni breakouts into your Raspberry Pi setup without soldering. Easily connect up to six I2C breakouts and start coding immediately, ideal for prototyping without the hassle of complex wiring.

The board includes six edge connectors that effectively link each breakout to power and I2C pins on your Raspberry Pi. You can use multiple I2C devices simultaneously, thanks to their unique addresses, ensuring a smooth workflow.

We’ve also provided a strip of male headers for additional connectivity and integration flexibility. Breakout Garden facilitates easy collaborative projects by allowing pre-soldered headers to be attached alongside other breakouts using the top row of pins.

Features:

• Six sturdy edge-connector slots for Pimoroni breakouts
• 0.1" pitch, 5-pin connectors
• Set of broken-out pins with included headers
• Standoffs for secure attachment
• Reverse polarity protection on all breakouts
• HAT format board for seamless Raspberry Pi integration

The I2C protocol ensures each breakout can be placed in any slot due to its unique address system, akin to calling out, “Hey, it's me, Bob!” to your Raspberry Pi. Even if plugged incorrectly, breakouts are protected from damage by integrated reverse polarity protection.

Utilize the automated software installation through the Breakout Garden GitHub repository, allowing you to install the needed software for each breakout efficiently. Get creative with projects like laser tape measures, environmental displays, or sophisticated presence detectors using various Pimoroni breakouts.
