SparkFun Raspberry Pi 4 Hardware Starter Kit - Without Raspberry Pi

Do you have a Raspberry Pi 4 laying around or got one as a gift and would like to use it? This is the kit for you. Everything you would find in the regular kits but without a Raspberry Pi 4. Bring your own Pi 4!

The Raspberry Pi 4 Hardware Starter Kit provides a solid set of parts and instruction for working with the Raspberry Pi 4 in a more hardware-centric manner. While the Raspberry Pi isn't typically considered a go-to for hardware projects, its I/O pins hold a lot of benefits that you can use for a variety of applications. This kit covers the basics like using LEDs, and Buttons while providing a solid set of parts for working with any other hardware I/O and the 40-pin header. In addition, we've included all the parts needed for getting the Raspberry Pi 4 up and running whether it's on its own, or using a monitor (not included). The new 64GB MicroSD cards keep read/write commands running super fast, too.

Most of the contents of the kit rely on the use of the 2x20, 40-pin header, so we've included a special extender to allow you to plug in the ribbon cable while using the provided heatsink case. We've also included a Qwiic Shim for easily working with I²C based Qwiic boards with the Pi. No soldering is required for this kit!

Note: This variation of the Raspberry Pi 4 Hardware Starter Kit does not include a Raspberry Pi in any form. This will need to be purchased separately.
