It allows you to connect HATs, bonnets, and breadboard projects directly to the Pi 400, restoring the versatility of a traditional Raspberry Pi’s exposed GPIO.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConnector Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40-pin Female Header (2x20)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePitch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.54 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCable Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlexible Flat Cable (FFC)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCable Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApprox. 100 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBoard Dimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60 mm x 21 mm x 14 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRaspberry Pi 400 only\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You Can Build With This\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAttach a Sense HAT for environmental sensing and LED matrix projects.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConnect a motor driver HAT to build a Raspberry Pi robot or rover.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug in a prototyping HAT or use a ribbon cable to a breadboard for quick sensor experiments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/kit-pi-4-retro-gaming-console\"\u003eAdd a small TFT display and buttons for a portable retro-gaming console.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe adapter is designed exclusively for the Raspberry Pi 400 and its internal GPIO connector. It provides a 1:1 pin mapping of the 40-pin header with 5V, 3.3V, I2C, SPI, UART, and all standard GPIOs. Most Raspberry Pi HATs and common maker boards that follow the 2.54 mm pitch standard are supported, provided they fit physically in the case cutout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWiring Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInsert the flexible cable gently into the Pi 400’s GPIO slot with the metal contacts facing the correct direction (markings on the adapter board indicate orientation). The breakout board then offers the same pin layout as a classic Raspberry Pi. Do not exceed the Pi 400’s per‑pin current limit of 16 mA and total 3.3 V rail current of 50 mA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from Compoden\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery component is sourced from verified suppliers and tested for compatibility before listing. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. Ships from Bengaluru in 3-5 days. If defective on arrival, replace within 7 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eIs this compatible with other Raspberry Pi models?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, this adapter works only with the Raspberry Pi 400. Standard Pi boards already have an exposed 40-pin header and do not need this breakout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eCan I use jumper wires directly with it?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the female header accepts standard male-to-male or male-to-female jumper wires. You can also plug the whole adapter into a solderless breadboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eDoes it include mounting hardware?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe package includes the adapter board and flex cable; screws, standoffs, or a case are not provided. You can mount the board using M2.5 standoffs if your project enclosure has appropriate holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"compoden-handoff\" style=\"margin-top:24px;padding:16px;background:#f0f4ff;border-left:4px solid #2B4D8F;border-radius:4px;\"\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 6px 0;font-weight:600;color:#1A3560;\"\u003e📦 Free Setup Handoff Document Included\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin:0;font-size:0.95em;color:#333;\"\u003eEvery Compoden order includes a free setup handoff document — step-by-step instructions to get your component working within minutes.
