Adapter, Breakout Boards2 Products
Products in this family provide increased convenience of access to the electrical contacts of a connector, integrated circuit, or similar device by providing interconnection between a component placement area (typically for a fine-pitch, surface mounted integrated circuit) and an interconnect area typically having a much larger distance between pin centers. A common application is accommodating the use of solderless breadboards as a prototyping method for components that are not available in breadboard-compatible packaging.
