## Description

The Adafruit Prototyping Pi Plate Kit snaps onto your Raspberry Pi and provides a generous prototyping area with all GPIO, I2C, SPI, and power pins broken out to labelled 0.1" strips and 3.5 mm screw-terminal blocks. It's designed for the original Pi Model A/B but also works with any 40-pin Pi (A+, B+, Zero, Pi 2, 3, 4, 5) — though only the top 26 GPIO pins are broken out. Custom extra-tall headers raise the plate above the Pi's metal connectors, giving you a clear workspace. The board fits inside the Adafruit Pi Box enclosure with terminal blocks still accessible for easy wiring. Key Features Dual Prototyping Areas – Half breadboard-style, half perfboard-style for flexible circuit building Labelled Screw Terminals – 3.5 mm terminal blocks along the edges for semi-permanent wiring of sensors, LEDs, and other peripherals GPIO Breakout – All 26 GPIO/I2C/SPI and power pins broken out to 0.1" strips General-Purpose Terminal Block – 4-position block broken out to 0.1" pads for non-GPIO wiring SOIC Breakout Area – Surface-mount IC footprint for chips not available in DIP Extra-Tall Headers – Raise the plate above the Pi's connectors for clear access Snap-On Design – Attaches to the Pi and is removable later Compatibility Raspberry Pi Model A and B (designed-for form factor) Raspberry Pi A+, B+, Zero, Pi 2, 3, 4, 5 (top 26 pins only) Ideal For Prototyping custom circuits on top of a Raspberry Pi Semi-permanent sensor and peripheral wiring via screw terminals Learning to solder with a practical, beginner-friendly kit Enclosed Pi projects using the Pi Box case Package Contents 1× Prototyping Pi Plate PCB 1× Extra-tall header Screw-terminal blocks (colour may vary: blue or black) Note: Comes as a kit requiring soldering — assembly takes about 15–20 minutes. Raspberry Pi is sold separately. Resources Prototyping Pi Plate Assembly Tutorial
