The Breadboard breakout for the BBC micro:bit allows the user to plug a BBC microbit into a standard 2.54mm pitch breadboard. Two 11 way pin headers are used to make connections into the breadboard.

The micro:bit slots into the edge connector on the top side of the PCB. No extra tools are required for installation. The front of the BBC micro:bit (the side with the LEDs) should be inserted facing the same side as the 3V pin.

The edge connector has connections on only one side, so if the BBC micro:bit is inserted in reverse orientation, it will not work.

The PCB is designed to plug across the middle slot of a breadboard, the same placement as an IC component.

Features:

  • The microbit slots into the on-board edge connector.
  • This breakout board plugs straight across the middle slot of a standard 2.54mm pitch breadboard, just like an IC component.
  • The microbits pins are broken out to 2 x 11 way header pins.
  • Use jumper wires to connect from the header pins to the breadboard.
  • No tools or soldering required for installation.
  • microbit to breadboard prototyping made easy.

1 review for Kitronik Breadboard breakout for the BBC micro:bit

  1. juergen

    This is the one that fits me best.
    I can use it in 3 different ways:
    1. as built, to push into a solderless breadboard
    2. I actually pushed female headers on and soldered wires on to the connections I need
    3. I could solder directly the top side to the ends of the pins
    As said, one of the best interfaces I have seen.
    The only thing I regret now that I did not order 2 or 3 of them – but wanted to see one first.
    We use it in our project MyCo – Programming the microbit just using the 3 buttons – no PC required.
    See it used here – not pretty, but does the job for testing and works very well running a Dice program
