Description
The Seeed Studio Grove 4-Pin Female Jumper to Grove 4-Pin Conversion Cable is a specialized modular interconnect designed to bridge standardized Grove ecosystem components with custom breakout boards and pin headers. Measuring 20 cm in length, this conversion cable features a secure buckled Grove connector on one end and individual 2.54mm pitch female socket pins on the other, allowing effortless mating with standard male header pins.
Engineered for makers, students, and professional engineers, this multi-colored harness simplifies prototyping across open-source hardware platforms such as Arduino, Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone, and CubieBoard. It eliminates the necessity for dedicated Base Shields when testing modular sensors, enabling rapid, solder-free circuit deployment in custom electronic projects.
Note: Product images are for reference only. The actual product appearance may vary slightly based on manufacturing batches.
Key Features
- Dual-Interface Design: Combines a buckled 4-pin Grove connector on one end with 4 individual 2.54mm pitch female socket pins on the opposing end.
- Universal Grove Compatibility: Fully compatible with all sensors, actuators, and intelligent modules within the Seeed Studio Grove ecosystem.
- Standardized Color Coding: Multi-colored wiring (Red, Black, Yellow, White) provides distinct visual guidance for Power ($V_{cc}$), Ground (GND), and dual Signal paths.
- Optimal 20 cm Length: Provides adequate reach for breadboard routing, multi-tier electronic enclosures, and compact experimental setups without excess wire slack.
- Secure Socket Termination: Precision-molded female housings ensure firm, reliable electrical contact when connected to standard male pin headers.
Benefits
- Header Compatibility: Enables the direct connection of modular Grove sensors to standard male pin headers without requiring proprietary interface shields.
- Cross-Platform Prototyping: Expands the usability of Grove modules to alternative developer boards and microcontrollers lacking native Grove ports.
- Solder-Free Efficiency: Eliminates tedious manual wiring and soldering errors, speeding up experimental circuit assembly and debugging.
- Multi-Device Value: Supplied as a convenient pack of 5 cables, supporting complex multi-sensor development projects and educational workstations.
- Reusable Interconnect: High-durability socket housings withstand repeated insertion and removal cycles in active laboratory environments.
Applications
- Breakout Board Interfacing: Connecting Grove environmental, motion, and optical sensors directly to custom sensor shields and breakout pins.
- Non-Grove Microcontroller Integration: Linking modular hardware to development boards equipped with standard 2.54mm male header pins (Raspberry Pi, Arduino, BeagleBone).
- Custom Enclosure Wiring: Bridging internal Grove modules to external controller boards and custom pin headers inside prototype housings.
- Educational Electronics: Simplifying wiring setups for students and makers learning circuit design without complex hardware constraints.
- General Electronic Testing: Providing reliable socket-to-connector conversion for temporary test rigs, instrumentation, and diagnostic tools.
