The Teensy 3.1 XBee Adapter connects your Teensy development board with the popular XBee wireless module, giving you a compact solution for projects requiring a reliable, no-frills wireless serial link with decent range.
The adapter also doubles as a breakout board for both the Teensy and XBee. Every pin on each module is broken out to standard 0.1" spaced through-hole pads, making it easy to incorporate additional components into your design. While optimised for the Teensy 3.1, the Teensy LC is also compatible.
Key Features
- XBee + Teensy Integration – Connects both modules on a single compact board
- Full Breakout – All Teensy and XBee pins broken out to 0.1" through-hole pads
- Teensy 3.1 & LC Compatible – 72 MHz (Teensy 3.1) or 48 MHz (Teensy LC) processing
- Pre-soldered XBee Headers – XBee socket headers installed and ready to use

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.
- 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.
- through-hole
- A mounting style where the component leads pass through holes in a circuit board and are soldered on the other side. Through-hole parts are often easier to handle and solder by hand, which is useful for classroom and hobby projects.
