Pin Configuration

  • Dupont Connector 2.54mm Pitch Dupont Cable Jumper Wire Pin Header Housing Assorted Kit
  • The Dupont Connector 2.54mm Pitch Dupont Cable Jumper Wire Pin Header Housing Assorted Kit is a versatile and widely used component in IoT and electronics projects. This kit consists of various jumper wires with different pin counts and lengths, along with a set of corresponding pin header housings. In this documentation, we will explain the pins of the Dupont connector one by one and provide a step-by-step guide on how to connect them.
  • Pin Structure and Explanation:
  • A standard Dupont connector has a 2.54mm pitch and typically consists of 2-40 pins, although the pin count may vary depending on the specific kit. The pins are arranged in a single row and are usually numbered from 1 to the total number of pins.
  • Connection Structure:
  • Here's a point-by-point guide on how to connect the pins:
  • 1. Identify the pin number: Start by identifying the pin number on the Dupont connector. The pins are usually numbered from 1 to the total number of pins.
  • 2. Determine the pin type: Determine the type of pin you are working with (e.g., male or female). Male pins are typically used on the jumper wires, while female pins are used on the pin header housing.
  • 3. Match the pin pitch: Ensure that the pitch of the pins on the jumper wire matches the pitch of the pins on the pin header housing (in this case, 2.54mm).
  • 4. Align the pins: Align the pins on the jumper wire with the corresponding pins on the pin header housing. Make sure the pins are properly seated and aligned to avoid any misconnections.
  • 5. Insert the pin: Gently insert the pin on the jumper wire into the corresponding pin on the pin header housing. You should feel a slight click as the pin snaps into place.
  • 6. Verify the connection: Verify that the pin is securely connected by gently tugging on the jumper wire. If the connection is secure, the pin should not come loose.
  • Best Practices:
  • Use the correct Dupont connector type (male or female) for the specific application.
  • Ensure the pins are clean and free of debris to prevent corrosion and ensure reliable connections.
  • Use the correct jumper wire length to avoid unnecessary stress on the connections.
  • Verify the connections regularly to prevent loose connections or damage to the pins.
  • Troubleshooting Tips:
  • If a pin is difficult to insert, check for any debris or corrosion on the pin or pin header housing. Clean the affected area and try again.
  • If a pin is loose, check the connection for any signs of wear or damage. Replace the jumper wire or pin header housing if necessary.
  • If you encounter any issues with the connections, refer to the kit's documentation or manufacturer's instructions for specific troubleshooting guidance.
  • By following these guidelines, you should be able to connect the pins of the Dupont Connector 2.54mm Pitch Dupont Cable Jumper Wire Pin Header Housing Assorted Kit correctly and reliably.

 Breadboard
 Dupont connectors (male and female)
 Jumper wires (assorted lengths and colors)
Code
```c
const int ledPin = 13;  // LED connected to digital pin 13
void setup() {
  pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
  digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH);
  delay(1000);
  digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW);
  delay(1000);

Hardware Requirements
Raspberry Pi
 DS18B20 temperature sensor
 Pin header housing (single-row)
 Jumper wires (assorted lengths and colors)
Code
```python
import datetime
import os
# Import the necessary libraries
import glob
import time
# Set up the temperature sensor
os.system('modprobe w1-gpio')
os.system('modprobe w1-therm')
# Set the temperature sensor file
base_dir = '/sys/bus/w1/devices/'
device_folder = glob.glob(base_dir + '28')[0]
device_file = device_folder + '/w1_slave'
# Read the temperature data
def read_temp_raw():
    f = open(device_file, 'r')
    lines = f.readlines()
    f.close()
    return lines
def read_temp():
    lines = read_temp_raw()
    while lines[0].strip()[-3:] != 'YES':
        time.sleep(0.2)
        lines = read_temp_raw()
    temp_output = lines[1].find('t=')
    if temp_output != -1:
        temp_string = lines[1].strip()[temp_output+2:]
        temp_c = float(temp_string) / 1000.0
        return temp_c
while True:
    print("Temperature: {:.2f}C".format(read_temp()))
    time.sleep(1)
```
Connection
1. Connect the pin header housing to the Raspberry Pi's GPIO pins.
2. Connect the DS18B20 temperature sensor to the pin header housing, ensuring it is connected to the correct GPIO pins.
