DESCRIPTION

Design your own Pi HAT, attach custom circuitry and otherwise dress your Pi A+,

B+, or Pi 2 with this jaunty prototyping HAT kit.

To kick off the Adafruit HAT party, we have this Perma-Proto inspired plug in

daughter board. It has a grid of 0.1" prototyping soldering holes for attaching

chips, resistors, LED, potentiometers and more. The holes are connected

underneath with traces to mimic the solderless breadboards you're familiar. There's

also long power strips for +3V, +5V and Ground connections to the Pi. Near the

top we break out nearly every pin you could want to connect to the Pi (#26 didnt

quite make the cut).

This is just the basic version of our Perma-Proto HAT.  It comes with a printed

circuit board and a single 2x20 GPIO Header for Raspberry Pi to put your Perma-

Proto on top of your Raspberry Pi (like a nice little hat...) This version does not

come with an EEPROM so you can 'stack' it with other HATs without worrying about

an EEPROM address collision.

You can customize your Perma-Proto setup using a standard 2x20 stacking header

or extra tall 2x20 stacking header. You can also swap out the 2x20 header with a

slim 2x20 type if you want it to sit closer to the Pi, or an extra tall one if you want

it to sit above the USB/Ethernet ports.
