This is an inverter for EL wire and tape, similar to our pocket inverters, except it is a brick that takes 12V input instead of 2 AA batteries. This means its good for 'fixed' installations since you can just plug it into a 12V wall adapter. It's also...

This breakout board is the simplest way to create a project with a single "momentary" capacitive touch sensor. No microcontroller is required here - just power with 1.8 to 5.5VDC and touch the pad to activate the sensor. When a capacitive load is...

RGB Pixels are digitally-controllable lights you can set to any color, or animate. Each RGB LED and controller chip is molded into a 'dot' of silicone. The dots are weatherproof and rugged. There are four flanges molded in so that you can 'push' them...

Silicone-sheathing wire is super-flexible and soft, and its also strong! Able to handle up to 200°C and up to 600V, it will do when PVC covered wire wimps out. We like this wire for being extremely supple and flexible, so it is great for wearables or...

This prototyping shield is the best out there (well, we think so, at least), and now is even better with Version R3 - updated for the most compatibility with just about all the Arduinos! It works with UNO, Mega, Leonardo, NG, Diecimila, Duemilanove,...

Feather is the flagship development board from Adafruit, and like its namesake it is thin, light, and lets you fly! Feather was designed to be a new standard for portable microcontroller cores. This is the Assembled Adafruit Feather HUZZAH ESP8266...

If you want to heat sink a SoC, motor driver, linear regulator, FET or other surface-mount package part, you might find yourself struggling to find a good heat sink. These little extra-small mini heat sinks are easy to use and give you an extra thermal...

Add a good quality, slim keyboard to your Raspberry Pi, Beagle Bone Black or other mini-computer with this sleek black chiclet keyboard. It's a full QWERTY keyboard with a USB cable and is compatible with all operating systems. We tried many keyboards to...

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...

Design your own Pi HAT, attach custom circuitry and otherwise dress your Pi A+, B+, or Pi 2 with this jaunty prototyping HAT kit with EEPROM To kick off the Adafruit HAT party, we have this Perma-Proto inspired plug in daughter board. It has a grid...

This panel mount extension cable will allow you to extend an HDMI connection and secure it to an enclosure. Perfect for placing your Raspberry Pi in a secure box. Two #4-40 screws are used to attach the female socket end, 26.9mm apart. Two hex-body...

Bring a little bit of Times Square into your home with this 16 x 32 RGB LED matrix panel. These panels are normally used to make video walls, but in New York you can see them on the sides of busses and bus stops, to display animations or short video...

Machine learning has come to the 'edge' - small microcontrollers that can run a very miniature version of TensorFlow Lite to do ML computations. But you don't need super complex hardware to start developing your own TensorFlow models! We've adapted our...

Punch in your secret key into this numeric matrix keypad. This keypad has 12 buttons, arranged in a telephone-line 3x4 grid. It's made of a thin, flexible membrane material with an adhesive backing (just remove the paper) so you can attach it to nearly...

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 love DIY cable-rigging, then these HDMI adapters are right up your alley! Making custom HDMI cables has never been easier. Just grab an HDMI ribbon cable, then swap and switch any of our HDMI adapters on each end using the flex cable clips...

An IC (Integrated Circuit) socket allows you to insert and remove chips easily from an assembled kit or project This item contains 3 of the 28 pin 0.6" wide version. Best used with chips that have 28 pins (2x14) and have 0.6" pin spacing. We also have 0...

These are very interesting 5mm diffused RGB LEDs - instead of having 4 pins to control 3 LEDs, they have only two leads - power and ground. When powered, the LEDs perform a slow fade through the rainbow, from red to orange to yellow, etc till they get...

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...

Sometimes we wonder if robotics engineers ever watch movies. If they did, they'd know that making robots into slaves always ends up in a robot rebellion. Why even go down that path? Here at Adafruit, we believe in making robots our friends! So if...
