{"title":"Adafruit Terminal PiCowbell for Pico - Reset Button & STEMMA QT","handle":"adafruit-terminal-picowbell-for-pico-reset-button-stemma-qt-ada5904","url":"/products/adafruit-terminal-picowbell-for-pico-reset-button-stemma-qt-ada5904","description":"The Adafruit Terminal PiCowbell gives your Raspberry Pi Pico or Pico W quick, solderless access to every GPIO pin via screw terminal blocks. Simply connect 18–26 AWG solid or stranded core wires to any of the 40 terminal blocks — one for each pin on the Pico — making it perfect for prototyping and permanent installations alike.\n\nThe board also includes a right-angle reset button, a STEMMA QT / Qwiic connector for I2C devices, a central prototyping area with 15 rows of connected strips, and duplicate hole pads next to every Pico pin for solder-jumpering. Gold-plated pads throughout ensure easy, reliable soldering.\n\nKey Features\n\n\n40 Screw Terminal Blocks – One for each Pico pad, using four 10-pin 2.54mm pitch terminal blocks for 18–26 AWG wire\n\nRight-Angle Reset Button – Conveniently positioned at the board edge for easy access\n\nSTEMMA QT / Qwiic Connector – Right-angle JST SH connector wired to 3V, GND, IO4 (SDA), and IO5 (SCL), with extra breakout holes for additional I2C connections or reassignment\n\nMini Prototyping Area – 15 rows of 8-hole connected strips in the centre, usable like a mini breadboard (traces can be cut if needed)\n\nDuplicate Hole Pads – Every Pico pad has a neighbouring hole for solder-jumpering\n\nGround and Power Strips – Ground pads marked with white silkscreen rectangles, plus dedicated long strips for ground and 3.3V power\n\nGold-Plated Pads – Easy, reliable soldering throughout the board\n\n\n\nNote: This PiCowbell does not include socket or pin headers. There are several configuration options depending on how you want to mount your Pico:\n\n\nStacking headers – For plugging into a breadboard or other accessories with sockets\n\nSocket headers – For a solid, direct connection without protruding pins\n\nShort socket headers – For a slim, low-profile design (pair with short plug headers on the Pico)\n\nDirect soldering – The most compact option, though the PiCowbell won't be removable\n\n\n\n\nTip: No I2C pull-ups are included on the board — most STEMMA QT / Qwiic breakouts already have them onboard. If using the Philhower Arduino core, Wire is pre-configured for IO4 and IO5. For CircuitPython or MicroPython, set SDA to pin 4 and SCL to pin 5.\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nPermanent wired installations with the Raspberry Pi Pico or Pico W\nPrototyping with solid or stranded core wire connections\nI2C sensor chains via STEMMA QT / Qwiic\nProjects requiring easy wire-to-GPIO access without soldering directly to the Pico\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× Adafruit Terminal PiCowbell for Pico (with screw terminal blocks pre-installed)\n","vendor":"Adafruit","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":1126,"title":"Default Title","sku":"AF-5904","mpn":"ADA5904","price":22.43,"compare_at_price":0.0,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":45,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
