This is a breakout board for a 6-pin male JST SH-type connector that provides access to each pin on a row of 0.1"-pitch through holes, making it compatible with standard solderless breadboards. The through-holes work with standard 0.1" (2.54 mm) male headers and 0.1" female headers, which are available separately.

This board can be used with Pololu's Micro Metal Gearmotor Encoder with top-entry connector or with side-entry connector, along with a female-female JST SH-style cable (available in 10 cm, 16 cm, 25 cm, 40 cm, and 63 cm lengths). When used this way, the breakout provides convenient access to the motor and encoder pins on a breadboard, and the pins are labeled on the board’s bottom silkscreen with this application in mind.

Alternatively, this board can serve as a general-purpose breakout for other applications; for example, a pair of connector breakouts with a female-female cable could be used as a removable general-purpose interconnect between different parts of a modular system.
