This handy Ethernet extension cable will make it easy for you to enclose a device that has an Ethernet port. Adafruit thinks this would be most useful when putting a Beagle Bone, Raspberry Pi, or Arduino Ethernet into a box. The jack half has two...

Infrared (IR) break-beam sensors are a simple way to detect motion. They work by having an emitter side that sends out a beam of human-invisible IR light, then a receiver across the way which is sensitive to that same light. When something passes between...

Make your own custom HDMI cable or HDMI interface with ease, using this HDMI Plug to Breakout. You get a nice solid PCB with an HDMI plug and through hole pads that you can solder to assemble your own wiring jigs. You can add in some terminal blocks to...

Make your own custom HDMI cable or HDMI interface with ease, using this HDMI Terminal Block Breakout. You get a nice solid PCB with an HDMI plug and two strips of terminal blocks that you can use with stranded or solid core wire to quickly assemble your...

Make your own custom HDMI input or HDMI interface with ease, using this HDMI Socket Breakout. You get a nice solid PCB with an HDMI socket that you can solder to assemble your own wiring jigs. You can add in some terminal blocks to make the wiring...

If you've ever ordered and wire up a 9-DOF sensor, chances are you've also realized the challenge of turning the sensor data from an accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer into actual "3D space orientation"! Orientation is a hard problem to solve. The...

Round and round and round they go! 16 ultra bright smart LED NeoPixels are arranged in a circle with 1.75" (44.5mm) outer diameter. The rings are 'chainable' - connect the output pin of one to the input pin of another. Use only one microcontroller pin to...

Beguiled by a fancy new chip that is only available in a SOIC or MSOP/(T)SSOP pinout? This breakout PCB set will make your life much much easier and get you prototyping faster than ever. One side has a 8-TSSOP/8-MSOP pin out with traces going to two rows...

Filling out our accelerometer offerings, we now have the really lovely digital ADXL345 from Analog Devices, a triple-axis accelerometer with digital I2C and SPI interface breakout. We added an on-board 3.3V regulator and logic-level shifting circuitry,...

That new Raspberry Pi® Model B+ computer you just got has a row of 2x20 pin headers soldered on - those are the GPIO (general purpose input/output) pins and for those of us who like to hack electronics they are where the real fun is. By programming...

This cable will let you swap out the stock 150mm long flex cable from a Raspberry Pi Camera (either 'classic' or 'NoIR' type) for a different size. Works great, just carefully open the connector on the Pi and slip this one in. This cable is 1 meter long...

Nothing makes a project harder to maintain than a lot of loose wiring. That's why we like to use terminal blocks whenever making PCB-to-Wire connections. These particular 3.5mm terminal blocks are our favorite: big enough for a range of wire gauges, easy...

The Microsoft Internet of Things Pack for Raspberry Pi 3 is the best way to get started using Windows 10 and your Raspberry Pi as an IoT enabled device. A collaboration between Microsoft's IoT division and Adafruit, this pack's the best...

Description PowerBoost 1000C is the perfect power supply for your portable project! With a built-in load-sharing battery charger circuit, you'll be able to keep your power-hungry project running even while recharging the battery! This little...

This 316L stainless steel thread falls somewhere between a thick thread and a thin yarn. Most sewing machines wouldn't be happy with this thread since its thick, and it has the 'furry' soft feel of yarn which makes it poor for most e-textiles/wearables...

DESCRIPTION The DRV2605 from TI is a fancy little motor driver. Rather than controlling a stepper motor or DC motor, its designed specifically for controlling haptic motors - buzzers and vibration motors. Normally one would just turn those kinds of...
