Description
The XBee to DIP Adapter is a brakout board that allows the use of the XBee and the XBee PRO wireless modules. This board breaks out all 20 pins of an XBee module to a 0.1” (2,54mm) standard spacing dual row header. The spacing between these two headers is 0,6” (15,24mm) making this adapter DIP friendly; in this way the adapter can be used with common IC sockets, with prototyping boards and also with breadboards.
This specific XBee to DIP Adapter has an important feature that distinguishes it from all the other adapters: in addition to the 10 pin headers, on the bottom of the board, there are 4 pads that could be used to connect a 4 pin connector or simply a wire in order to use the minimal number of signals (VCC, GND, TX, RX) that are necessary to realize a connection in specific application where minimalism is the keyword.
