• Don't have space for a 5x2 0.100" header on your test board?
• Want to make use of a header that doesn't have the same pin-out as the Aardvark™ I2C/SPI Host Adapter ribbon cable or the Beagle™ I2C/SPI Protocol Analyzer ribbon cable?
• Don't want to create an adapter board to interface with your target?

The 10-Pin Split Cable is the ideal solution for you. This cable attaches to the ribbon cable on the Aardvark™ I2C/SPI Host Adapter or the Beagle™ I2C/SPI Protocol Analyzer and provides individual leads for each pin.

Features

The 10-Pin Split Cable has a 10-pin box header that attaches to the ribbon cable. Each individual lead has a different color and is labeled with the pin name so that they are easy to identify.

The connector is a standard 5x2 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch IDC type keyed box connector. Each individual lead is terminated with a single pin crimp connector with the same 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch. The cable is only 5" (12.7cm) long to minimize signal degradation.

Individual Leads

Each lead is color coded and has a small label to indicate which lead is associated with which pin. The leads are shown in the following diagram.

Universal Uses

The 10-Pin Split Cable is an incredibly useful tool that will save you from having to create or purchase adapter boards for your 10-pin ribbon cable. Although it is labeled with the Aardvark I2C/SPI Host Adapter and Beagle I2C/SPI Protocol Analyzer specific pinout, this split cable is universally adaptable to a variety of applications.

This split cable will connect to any standard 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch 10-pin keyed IDC-type connector.
