40-pin GPIO Ribbon Cable for Raspberry Pi

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

Compatible with:

Raspberry Pi 4

Raspberry Pi 5

Raspberry Pi Zero

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.

The Raspberry Pi Zero WH is the most compact member of the Raspberry Pi family, designed to be budget-friendly and versatile enough for a wide range of projects. It now comes with built-in WiFi and Bluetooth, making it easier than ever to connect and control your devices wirelessly.

This WH version features a pre-soldered 40-pin GPIO header, so there's no need for you to solder anything – it's ready to go straight out of the box! The familiar GPIO header allows you to easily attach HATs, pHATs, or simply use jumper wires to connect your project components.

Despite its small size, the Zero WH is packed with essential features, including WiFi, Bluetooth, a mini-HDMI port, a micro-USB port, and a camera connector. Powered by a 1GHz processor (BCM2835) and 512MB of RAM, it may not be as powerful as the Raspberry Pi 4, but it’s more than capable for a wide range of creative and practical projects.

We also offer a variety of cases to keep your Raspberry Pi Zero safe and stylish.
