Pin Configuration

  • Male to Male Jumper Wires (20cm) (20pcs) - Technical Documentation
  • Overview
  • The Male to Male Jumper Wires (20cm) (20pcs) is a set of 20 jumper wires, each 20cm in length, used to connect two male headers or pins together. These jumper wires are commonly used in prototyping, electronics projects, and IoT applications.
  • Pin Description
  • Each jumper wire has two male pins on both ends, with a total of 4 pins per wire. The pins are described below:
  • Pin 1: Male Pin (End 1)
  • + Function: Input/Output Pin
  • + Type: Male
  • + Description: This pin is connected to one end of the cable and is used to connect to a male header or pin on a circuit board, breadboard, or other electronic devices.
  • Pin 2: Male Pin (End 1)
  • + Function: Input/Output Pin
  • + Type: Male
  • + Description: This pin is connected to the same end of the cable as Pin 1 and is used to connect to another male header or pin on a circuit board, breadboard, or other electronic devices.
  • Pin 3: Male Pin (End 2)
  • + Function: Input/Output Pin
  • + Type: Male
  • + Description: This pin is connected to the other end of the cable and is used to connect to a male header or pin on a circuit board, breadboard, or other electronic devices.
  • Pin 4: Male Pin (End 2)
  • + Function: Input/Output Pin
  • + Type: Male
  • + Description: This pin is connected to the same end of the cable as Pin 3 and is used to connect to another male header or pin on a circuit board, breadboard, or other electronic devices.
  • Connection Structure
  • When connecting the jumper wires, follow these steps:
  • 1. Identify the Male Headers/Pins: Identify the male headers or pins on the circuit board, breadboard, or other electronic devices that you want to connect using the jumper wires.
  • 2. Connect Pin 1 and Pin 2: Connect Pin 1 and Pin 2 to the corresponding male headers or pins on one end of the connection. For example, if you're connecting two components, connect Pin 1 to the VCC pin of one component and Pin 2 to the GND pin of the same component.
  • 3. Connect Pin 3 and Pin 4: Connect Pin 3 and Pin 4 to the corresponding male headers or pins on the other end of the connection. For example, if you're connecting two components, connect Pin 3 to the VCC pin of the second component and Pin 4 to the GND pin of the same component.
  • 4. Verify the Connection: Verify that the connections are secure and not loose.
  • 5. Test the Connection: Test the connection to ensure that the signal is being transmitted correctly between the two components.
  • Important Notes
  • Make sure to handle the jumper wires carefully to avoid damage or bending.
  • Use the correct gauge wire and length according to your project's requirements.
  • Ensure that the connections are secure and not loose to prevent electrical shorts or damage to the components.
  • By following these steps and understanding the pin structure, you can successfully use the Male to Male Jumper Wires (20cm) (20pcs) to connect your electronic components and complete your IoT projects.
