The Adafruit Quad Side-By-Side FeatherWing Kit lets you connect one Feather board to three FeatherWings simultaneously in a linear side-by-side layout — no stacking headers needed. All four sets of Feather pins are cross-connected, so every FeatherWing shares the same bus signals, power, and ground.
Each of the four positions includes prototyping space with three breakout pads per Feather pin, plus a grid of plain proto holes for custom circuitry. GND and 3.3 V have full strips of connected pads for easy power distribution. The kit includes the PCB and four sets of female headers — just solder them on and start building.
Key Features
- Side-By-Side Layout – Four Feather/FeatherWing sockets in a linear row
- Cross-Connected Pins – All four positions share the same bus signals
- Prototyping Area – Three breakout pads per pin plus grid proto holes at each position
- Power Distribution – Full connected strips for GND and 3.3 V
- No Stacking Required – Side-by-side layout eliminates the need for stacking headers
Package Contents
- 1× Quad Side-By-Side FeatherWing PCB
- 4× Sets of Feather female headers
Also Consider
- Quad 2×2 FeatherWing Kit – Same concept in a compact 2×2 grid layout instead of side-by-side
Ideal For
- Multi-FeatherWing projects without stacking
- Prototyping with multiple sensors and add-ons
- Creating custom Feather-based systems with a linear layout
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- breakout
- A breakout is a small circuit board that makes a tiny or hard-to-solder component easier to connect to with standard pins. It matters because this OLED module can be wired into a microcontroller project without needing to solder directly to the display’s fine contacts.
- FeatherWing
- A FeatherWing is an add-on board made to plug into the Feather microcontroller board layout. Knowing a product is a FeatherWing helps you check whether it will physically and electrically fit your Feather-style mainboard.
- Headers
- Rows of metal pins used to plug a module into a breadboard or connect it with jumper wires. Pre-soldered headers make the module easier to use straight away without needing to solder the pins yourself.
- PCB
- A printed circuit board is a rigid board with copper tracks that connect electronic parts without loose wires. For this kit, the PCBs also form the airplane shape, so they are both the circuit base and part of the finished model.
