The SparkFun Qwiic Kit for Raspberry Pi provides everything you need to start using I2C sensors and displays with your Raspberry Pi via the Qwiic connector system. The kit includes a Qwiic HAT that adds four Qwiic connectors to your Pi's GPIO header, along with three sensor/display breakouts and cables to connect them.
The Qwiic HAT plugs into any Raspberry Pi with a 2×20 GPIO header, and is also compatible with the NVIDIA Jetson Nano Developer Kit and Google Coral Development Board.

Resources
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.
- 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.
- IoT
- Short for Internet of Things, meaning physical devices that connect to networks or the internet to send data or be controlled remotely. It matters if you want projects such as connected sensors, remote controls or classroom data-logging activities.
- NVIDIA Jetson Nano
- The NVIDIA Jetson Nano is a compact NVIDIA computing module used for camera, robotics and machine-learning projects at the edge. A compatible carrier board can host the module, though the module itself is usually sold separately.
- OLED
- OLED stands for organic light-emitting diode, a display type where each pixel produces its own light. It matters because OLED screens are thin, high-contrast and easy to read for small status displays, but they can be more sensitive to image burn-in than some other display types.
- Proximity sensor
- A sensor that detects the presence of a nearby object without physical contact, using methods such as infrared, ultrasonic, capacitive, inductive or time-of-flight. Useful ranges vary widely between types, from a few millimetres to several metres, so check a given sensor's specified range to see whether it suits close-up touch-free triggers or longer-distance detection.
- 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.
