Description

Extend your Raspberry Pi's GPIO capabilities easily with this 40-pin FPC to Straight 2x20 IDC Female Socket Header Adapter. This adapter acts as an extender for all 40 pins on your Raspberry Pi, allowing you to connect using a 40-pin wide, 0.5mm pitch, 0.3mm thick FPC cable with 'A-B' connections.

Simply plug the socket side into your Raspberry Pi and insert your FPC ribbon cable into the 40-pin flex connector, ensuring correct orientation with Pin 1. For extended length, use a 40-pin extender in combination. This adapter is ideal for connecting HATs or bonnets using FPC cables, especially for HATs with slim connectors that may require a socket riser/lifter for better grip.

Technical Details:

  • PCB Dimensions: 54.3mm x 26mm x 11.8mm

Recommended accessories include the 40-pin FPC Extension Board + 200mm Cable and 40-pin 0.5mm pitch FPC Flex Cable with A-B Connections.

Note: For HATs or accessories lacking a chunky connector on the bottom, a riser is recommended to improve connection security.
