Description

You want to get hacking with your Pi fast right? Get everything you need to start with the Adafruit Starter Pack for Raspberry Pi. It's the perfect accompaniment to your new Pi everything you need to get a distro image loaded and running. We even pre-assemble the Cobbler for you no soldering required.

THIS PACK DOES NOT INCLUDE A RASPBERRY PI 1 MODEL B. To purchase a Starter Pack with an included Raspberry Pi Model B Revision 1.0 code 2 please click here. This pack is not compatible with the Model B+ or Raspberry Pi 2!

This pack contains:

• Adafruit Pi Case- Keeps your Pi snug and safe and is compatible with the GPIO cable and cobbler! Durable and chic snaps together in seconds.
• 3' long USB Micro-B Cable- Use this to power the Pi from a computer or the 5V 1A adapter
• 5V 1A power adapter- this ain't no regular USB power plug! We had these custom made specifically for use with embedded Linux machines like the Pi. It provides clean 1A minimum with 5.25V to overcome the 0.25V drop of the USB cable
• USB TTL console cable- The easiest method by far to talk to the Pi - simply connect the black green and white wires to the GPIO header and connect using a terminal program! Works great for 'headless' Pi hacking
• 4GB SD card for Raspberry Pi preinstalled with Raspbian Wheezy- 4GB microSDHC card programmed with the latest Raspberry Pi Linux distribution.
• Adafruit Pi Cobbler with GPIO cable- We now have this part pre-assembled so you don't have to solder it! Makes connecting to the GPIO/I2C/SPI/Power pins easy as pie for Model B Revision 1.0
• Large full-size breadboard- This breadboard has plenty of space for a Cobbler and your circuits with an adhesive back you can attach it. We now ship white breadboards not clear ones
• Premium Male/Male Jumper Wires - 20 x 6" (150mm)- These jumper wires are great for making wire harness or jumpering between headers on PCBs. We include the longer ones so they work well with the full-size breadboard.
• USB WiFi Module- Give your Rasp Pi the Internet with this USB port WiFi module this module is compact but has great range and is plenty fast.
• Embroidered Raspberry Pi badge- beautiful jewel-tone embroided badges are made with solar power and are iron on. Adafruit supports the Raspberry Pi foundation with donations and have permission to make these badges.
• BONUS PARTS!Everyone loves bonuses so we include some parts that willget you through some of thetutorials on the Adafruit Learning System. These include:
  • 1xPhoto Cell
  • 5x10K 5% 1/4W Resistor
  • 5x560 ohm 5% 1/4W Resistor
  • 1xDiffused 10mm Blue LED
  • 1xElectrolytic Capacitor - 1.0uF
  • 1xDiffused 10mm Red LED
  • 1xDiffused 10mm Green LED
  • 3x12mm Tactile Switches

This pack is a great way to start and will let you boot up & connect your Pi to the 'net and follow these tutorials to whet your appetite:

• Introduction to outputs - Light up an LED when you get more email
• Introduction to inputs - Play MP3 audio files when three different buttons are pressed
• Introduction to sensors - Reading a photo cell sensor with RC timing to detect light changes

Please note some boards are made in the UK some in China.
