What is a Qwiic connector?
Qwiic SparkFun is an ecosystem that includes numerous sensors based on the I2C bus , executive modules and dedicated cables . The main assumption of this solution is to streamline the prototyping process. All Qwiic-enabled components use a common 1mm pitch 4-pin JST connector . This reduces the amount of space required on the PCB. It also protects against connecting wrong polarity.
Description of the module pins
- GND - system ground
- 3V3 - power pin
