This HDMI plug breakout board lets you create custom HDMI cables or tap into individual HDMI pins for specialised wiring setups. The solid PCB features an HDMI plug with through-hole pads for soldering your own connections — ideal for splicing off I2C, power, or specific signal pins.
Comes with a clip-on housing for a clean finish. Add terminal blocks to the breakout pads for tool-free wiring, or solder directly for a permanent connection.
Key Features
- HDMI Plug to Breakout – All HDMI pins broken out to through-hole pads
- Solderable Pads – Accepts wire, terminal blocks, or pin headers
- Clip-On Housing – Included for a tidy connector finish
- Custom Wiring – Access individual signal, power, and I2C pins
Ideal For
- Custom HDMI cable builds
- Tapping HDMI I2C or power lines
- Test and debug jigs
- Unusual display wiring configurations
Package Contents
- 1× HDMI Plug Breakout Board
- 1× Clip-On Housing
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.
- HDMI
- HDMI is a common digital video and audio connection used by computers, media players, and many displays. If a display kit has HDMI input, it is usually much easier to test with a single-board computer because it can act like a normal monitor.
- 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.
- 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.
