005 Breadboard Breakout

About

This is a breakout board for 0.05" (1.27mm) pitch parts so that they may be connected to a standard 0.1" (2.54mm) pitch breadboard.

It was originally designed for use with the Olimex iCE40HX8K-EVB. This board uses a series of 40 pin IDC cables with 0.05" pitch which is great from the perspective of maximizing the footprint of the development board... it's sub-optimal for any peripheral development. Additionally, this board should be usable for other projects with similar footprint needs.
