The Adafruit Proto Doubler PiCowbell is designed to simplify programming and sensor connectivity for your Raspberry Pi Pico board. It functions like a mini solderless proto plate, featuring a reset button, STEMMA QT/Qwiic connector for fast I2C connections, and a rechargeable battery with an on/off switch. It’s plug-and-play, so no soldering is required when used with a Pico H or Pico WH. With two side-by-side slots, it allows easy addition of accessories to your Pico or Pico W without the need for stacking headers.
Features:
- Two 2×20 slim socket headers for easy Pico and accessory connections with an extra row of sockets for each pin.
- JST PH connector for LiIon/LiPoly or Alkaline/NiMH battery use (disable charge jumper for non-rechargeable batteries).
- LiPoly/ LiIon charging circuitry for 3.7V/4.2V 1-cell batteries with 500mA default charge rate (adjustable to 250mA).
- Charging status indicated by orange (charging) and green (complete) LEDs.
- Slide switch to disable the 3.3V power supply via the Pico Enable pin.
- Reset button accessible at the end of the board.
- JST SH connector for I2C / Stemma QT / Qwiic connections, or plain GPIO wiring with 3V, GND, IO4 (SDA), and IO5 (SCL).
- Extra breakout holes for additional I2C connections or custom wiring.
- Three-hole connected strips for mini breadboard-style prototyping, with trace cutting options.
- Duplicate hole pads for easy solder-jumpering.
- Ground pads marked with white silkscreen for easy identification.
- Long ground strip near the reset button and connected holes for 3.3V power.
- Gold-plated pads for easy soldering.
