Know before you buy
This board is compatible with the Raspberry Pi A+, B+, Zero, 2, 3, 3B+, and 4. It is designed to fit the standard 40-pin GPIO header layout found on these models.
At only 0.8mm thick, the board is designed to be ultra-thin to minimize physical interference. It should fit easily between your Raspberry Pi and most standard HATs or accessories without causing connection issues.
The board features a specific physical design that ensures it can only be installed in the correct orientation. This prevents accidental misalignment that could potentially damage your Raspberry Pi or connected components.
While you can leave it attached, it is primarily designed as a reference tool for prototyping and educational projects. The 25-pack makes it an excellent resource for classrooms or makers who frequently swap components and need a quick, reliable pinout guide.
No, this is a passive reference board designed solely for visual pinout identification. It does not provide surge protection, signal buffering, or electrical isolation for your Raspberry Pi.
