This is a jumper adapter cable that comes pre-terminated with a female Qwiic JST connector on one end and female connectors on the other. This cable makes it easy to connect components with a Qwiic connector to the male pins on various development platforms. This cable is also a great way to attach a logic analyzer to your I2C system.
The 28AWG wire's length is 165mm (about 6.49 inches). The adapter’s wires have been color coded to red, black, blue and yellow. Additionally, the female Qwiic connector features a basic 1mm pitch, while the female hookup pins can easily connect to a standard 0.1" male connector.
All Qwiic cables have the following color scheme and arrangement:
  • Black = GND
  • Red = 3.3V
  • Blue = SDA
  • Yellow = SCL
The SparkFun Qwiic connect system is an ecosystem of I2C sensors, actuators, shields and cables that make prototyping faster and less prone to error. All Qwiic-enabled boards use a common 1mm pitch, 4-pin JST connector. This reduces the amount of required PCB space, and polarized connections mean you can’t hook it up wrong.
Features:
  • Length: 165mm
  • 28 AWG

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

AWG
American Wire Gauge is a numbering system for wire thickness, where a lower number means a thicker wire. The AWG rating matters because thicker wire can usually carry more current with less voltage drop and heating.
I2C
I2C is a two-wire communication bus used by many sensors and small modules. It matters because several I2C devices can share the same two wires, but each device needs a compatible address and your controller must support I2C.
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.
Qwiic
Qwiic is a plug-in connector system for I2C devices that uses small 4-pin cables, so you can connect compatible sensors without soldering. It matters because your controller or adapter also needs Qwiic, or you will need a cable or breakout to wire it up.
