The Atmel AT90USBKEY is a great little development board. The problem is that the pads for the 6 sets of port pins are almost too tiny to work with. Adapt these tiny 2x5 (0.1"x0.05") port-pin headers of Atmel's AT90USBKEY development board to standard 2x5 (0.1"x0.1") headers. Solder each adapter to the bottom side or top side of the AT90USBKEY using the 24GA wire we supply with each set. A set of 6 converts all of the port pins to standard 0.1" headers. Board dimensions are 0.275"x0.812". Let the prototyping begin! You provide the optional header pins. These are available from our
online store for $5.95 for a set of 6.
To insure proper hole alignment, insert and solder four 1" lengths of the supplied 24GA wire through the four corner pads as shown. Be sure the adapter PCB is sitting flush against the AT90USBKEY before soldering. Solder the four pads on the top side of the adapter board.
Then turn the board over and solder the pads on the bottom side of the AT90USBKEY.
Insert and solder the remaining six wires. Repeat this process for all adapter boards.
Optionally solder male header pins onto the adapter boards for quick easy prototyping with our
female to female jumper cables.
That's it, you're ready for prototyping. Be sure to check out the
