Maker Hat Base for Raspberry Pi 400 – GPIO Extension Board with Grove Ports

The Maker Hat Base for Raspberry Pi 400 is a powerful GPIO extension board designed to make hardware projects, electronics learning, and Raspberry Pi prototyping easier than ever. It brings out all the GPIO pins from the Raspberry Pi 400 using a ribbon cable, allowing you to connect HATs, sensors, Grove modules, or jumper wires in a clean and accessible layout.

With clearly labeled pins, status LEDs, built-in push buttons, and a programmable buzzer, this board is perfect for beginners, educators, makers, and anyone working on Raspberry Pi hardware projects.

The Maker Hat Base is also fully compatible with Raspberry Pi 3 and Raspberry Pi 4, making it a versatile extension platform even when your Pi is enclosed in a case. The onboard Grove ports (GPIO, UART & I2C), mini breadboard support, and extra 3.3V regulated power (up to 800mA) enable fast prototyping without messy wiring.

Whether you’re testing circuits, connecting external sensors, or building robotics and IoT projects, the Maker Hat Base ensures plug-and-code convenience for all your Raspberry Pi setups.
