We put a PermaProto half sized proto board in a blender with a Pi Cobbler and out
emerged this very tasty confection - the PermaProto for Pi! It has the Cobbler baked right
in. Simply solder the 2x13 pin header in and you get all the labeled breakouts with tons of
prototyping space, power rails, mounting holes and that gorgeous silk.
Customers have asked us to carry basic perf-board, but we never liked the look of most
basic perf: its always crummy quality, with pads that flake off and no labeling. Then we
thought about how people actually prototype - usually starting with a solderless
breadboard and then transferring the parts to a more permanent PCB. That's when we
realized what people would really like is a proto board that makes it easy!
This proto-board is the PCB you always wish you had, but never realized it! We took the
basic layout of a half-sized breadboard (the PCB has 30 rows) and turned that into a
beautiful PCB. The top side has a white silkscreen, and the same markings you're familiar
with, to make transferring components easy. The bottom has the 5-hole pad design that
matches a classic breadboard, with 4 power bus lines on the sides, and no mask so you
can easily cut traces when necessary. We used 1.2mm diameter drill holes so even parts
with big leads will fit. All holes are thru-plated for strength - these wont peel off with
rework. The finish is a gold plate - you won't get oxidation like with bare copper
perf! There are also tons of mounting holes so you can attach the PCB to your project
box.
Comes with one PCB and one box header, you'll need to do a little light soldering to attach
the box header to the PCB but its fast and easy to do. To connect it to a Pi, you'll also
need a 26-pin GPIO cable if you don't already have one
