    40-pin GPIO Ribbon Cable for Raspberry Pi

    Manufacturer: Pimoroni
    This 175mm long GPIO (general purpose input/output) ribbon cable lets you extend the reach of your Raspberry Pi's pins, bridging them out to other boards or PCBs. The Raspberry Pi's GPIO can be used for all sorts: twiddling pins on or off, providing 3.3V or 5V power, communicating with I2C or SPI devices, and much more. This cable gives you a bit more flexibility in where you route those signals.

  • 175mm long x 51mm wide
  • 40 wires, 2x20 pin female connectors
  • Pin 1 is marked by the white/pink wire

  • Note: Be careful to connect this cable to your board the correct way around. You can't use it with a male header to connect to a HAT's female header, as the pins will be mirrored. You'll risk damaging both your board and your Raspberry Pi if you connect the cable incorrectly so, if in doubt, check the order of the pins on the connector with a multimeter before connecting things up!

    Compatible with:
  • Raspberry Pi 4
  • Raspberry Pi 5

    Raspberry Pi Sense Hat V2

    RP SC0329
    The Raspberry Pi Sense HAT gives your Raspberry Pi an array of sensing capabilities. The on-board sensors allow you to monitor pressure, humidity, temperature, colour, orientation, and movement. The bright 8x8 RGB LED matrix allows you to visualise data from the sensors, and the five-button joystick lets users interact with your projects.

    The Sense HAT was originally developed for use on the International Space Station, as part of the educational Astro Pi programme run by the Raspberry Pi Foundation in partnership with the European Space Agency. It is well suited to many projects that require position, motion, orientation, or environmental sensing. The Sense HAT is powered by the Raspberry Pi computer to which it is connected.

    An officially supported Python library gives you easy access to all on-board sensors, the LED matrix, and the joystick. The Sense HAT is compatible with any Raspberry Pi model featuring a 40-pin GPIO header.

    The sensors enable you to read:
  • Gyroscope
  • Accelerometer
  • Magnetometer
  • Temperature
  • Barometric pressure
  • Humidity
  • Colour and brightness

    40-pin GPIO Booster Header for Raspberry Pi

    PIM COM0003
    These headers will give your HAT or pHAT a real lift! We all love playing with the latest Pi accessories, but sometimes we've found that these wonderful add-on boards could do with just a little more clearance from the top of the Raspberry Pi.

    That's where these little headers come in! They're standard 2x20 GPIO headers so are suitable for all 40-pin versions of the Raspberry Pi, but they have 5mm pins to make sure they mate securely with the female headers on your add-on board.

    Raspberry Pi 5 Active Cooler

    RP SC1148
    The Raspberry Pi Active Cooler provides an alternative cooling solution for users who wish to use their Raspberry Pi 5 under sustained heavy load without a case.

    The Active Cooler combines a large metal heatsink with a high-quality variable-speed blower fan, powered and controlled via the fan connector on the Raspberry Pi 5, attached to the board via sprung pins into the dedicated pair of mounting holes.

    As the heat from the Pi 5 CPU spreads across the heatsink body and fins, the blower fan pushes cool air over them to keep your Raspberry Pi 5 running at optimal thermal levels. The cooler uses thermal pads to create a solid thermal connection with the Raspberry Pi 5.

    The fan is software-controlled, allowing it to remain off (and therefore silent) until temperatures reach the specified threshold.

    Features
  • Compatible with Raspberry Pi 5
  • Large metal 'finned' heatsink combined with a high-quality blower fan
  • Fan fitting compatible with the Raspberry Pi 5 fan connector
  • Variable speed fan (software/temperature controlled)
  • Uses the Raspberry Pi 5 heatsink mount holes
  • Thermal pads included (pre-fitted)

  • Raspberry Pi not included

    Compatible with:
