This JST SH compatible cable features 1 mm pitch 3-pin connectors on both ends, making it ideal for chaining boards together or connecting to debug ports. It's perfect for use with NeoPixel JST breakout boards, UPDI programmers, or any board with a JST SH 3-pin connector for simple digital or analogue I/O.

The cable also works with the debug port on a Raspberry Pi Pico WH or dedicated debug probes. Note that the wire colours match as follows for debug use:

  1. White – SWCLK or UART TX
  2. Red – Ground
  3. Black – SWDIO or UART RX

Key Features

  • 1 mm Pitch JST SH Connectors – Compatible plug on both ends
  • 3-Pin Configuration – Suitable for simple digital and analogue connections
  • Plug-to-Plug Design – Chain boards together without soldering

Ideal For

  • Connecting JST SH breakout boards
  • Debug port connections on Raspberry Pi Pico
  • Chaining sensor or LED boards with JST SH connectors

Package Contents

  • 1× JST SH compatible 1 mm pitch 3-pin plug-to-plug cable
Note: When used with a debug probe, the red wire is ground — not power. Take care when wiring to avoid damage.

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

breakout
A breakout board carries a small or fine-pitched component and brings its connections out to standard, breadboard- and header-friendly pins. Describing a part as a breakout means it can be wired into a project without soldering directly to the component's tiny contacts.
LED
A light-emitting diode (LED) is a small electronic component that emits light when current flows through it in the correct direction. Because it only conducts one way, its polarity matters, and a through-hole LED must be soldered the correct way around to light up.
NeoPixel
A type of addressable LED system where colour data is sent along a single digital data line from one LED or controller to the next. Compatibility matters because the timing and signal format must match for the lights or driver board to respond correctly.
RX
RX means receive, usually showing data being received by the board. An RX indicator LED can help with troubleshooting USB or serial communication.
TX
TX means transmit, usually showing data being sent from the board. A TX indicator LED can help you see when the board is communicating or uploading code.
UART
UART is a simple asynchronous serial interface that sends data over separate transmit and receive wires, usually labelled TX and RX, with both ends set to the same baud rate. It is a common way for microcontrollers and other serial devices to exchange data.
