Bus Pirate Cable

This is an awesome interface cable for the Bus Pirate. It connects to the 2x5 I/O header of the Bus Pirate. The cable's connector has two rows of five 0.1'-spaced pins and is polarized, just like the mating connector on the Bus Pirate. This means you can only connect it in one direction. The cable leads end with female ends to match test hooks. Check here for the connector's pin-out details.

Using this cable is easy. First, find the 2x5 I/O header on your Bus Pirate. Make sure to align the polarized connector correctly - it can only fit one way. Then, connect the cable to the header. The female - ended leads are for attaching test hooks. When using, be gentle to avoid bending the pins. For maintenance, keep it in a dry place and clean the pins with a soft cloth if they get dirty. If you have any issues, refer to the pin - out documentation for troubleshooting.
