The Mini Black HAT Hack3r is a compact breakout board that gives you full access to all Raspberry Pi GPIO pins while a HAT or pHAT is attached. Ideal for debugging HAT projects, probing signals, or combining a HAT with other circuits on a breadboard.

Every GPIO pin is clearly labelled with its function, BCM pin number, and physical pin number — no more guessing or cross-referencing pinout diagrams. This fully assembled version comes ready to use out of the box.

Key Features

  • Full GPIO Breakout – Access all 40 GPIO pins while running a HAT
  • HAT & pHAT Landing Areas – Compatible with both form factors, with PCB standoffs
  • Clear Pin Labelling – Function, BCM number, and physical pin number for every pin
  • Included Ribbon Cable – 40-pin GPIO ribbon cable for connecting to your Pi
  • Non-Slip Feet – Rubber feet keep the board stable on your desk
  • Mounting Holes – Four mounting holes for secure installation

Ideal For

  • Debugging HAT and pHAT projects
  • Probing GPIO signals with a multimeter or logic analyser
  • Combining a HAT with breadboard circuits

Package Contents

  • 1× Mini Black HAT Hack3r PCB (fully assembled with pre-installed pin headers)
  • 1× 40-way black GPIO ribbon cable
  • 4× PCB standoffs for HAT mounting
  • 4× Rubber non-slip feet

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.
GPIO
General-purpose input/output pins are microcontroller pins you can set in software to read signals, switch devices on and off, or connect to peripherals. The number of GPIO pins matters because it limits how many buttons, LEDs, sensors, and other parts you can wire directly to the board.
Headers
Rows of connector contacts on a fixed pitch (commonly 2.54 mm) used to link a board to a breadboard, jumper wires, or another board. They come as male pin headers and female socket headers; when a module ships with pre-soldered headers it can be used straight away, whereas bare pads require soldering the pins yourself.
PCB
A printed circuit board (PCB) is a board, usually rigid, with etched copper tracks that connect electronic components together without loose wiring. Components are mounted on the board and signals route between them through the copper layout.
pHAT
A smaller add-on board format for Raspberry Pi, similar in idea to a HAT but usually not full-sized. It matters because pHAT compatibility can affect how neatly a board stacks or fits into a Raspberry Pi project.
