## Description

Love working with breadboards? To make the Omega more breadboard friendly, we present the Breadboard Dock. It is our most no frills Dock to date! We strongly recommend getting a Dock for your Omega to get the best experience and most performance, functionality, and stability from your device.

### Breadboard Friendly!

Plug your Omega into the Dock and then plug the Dock directly into a breadboard! The Omega’s pins are mapped 1-to-1 to the breadboard headers, so it’s about as close as you can get to plugging the Omega directly into a breadboard.

### Convenience

Provide power to the Omega and Dock with any Micro USB cable. The Dock includes a regulator circuit that ensures the Omega always receives the stable 3.3V it needs to operate optimally. Also included is a Reset Button; press to reboot your Omega, hold it for 10 seconds to perform a factory restore.
