# micro:bit or CLUE Connector - Sunken Right Angle Type

**Type:** Product page · **SKU:** ADA4792 · **Brand:** [Adafruit](https://core-electronics.com.au/brands/adafruit-australia)
**Page:** https://core-electronics.com.au/micro-bit-or-clue-connector-sunken-right-angle-type.html ([markdown](https://core-electronics.com.au/micro-bit-or-clue-connector-sunken-right-angle-type.html.md))

If you want to do more with the BBC micro:bit, getting those pins from the card-edge connector is going to be your first hurdle. Unlike many dev-boards, the micro:bit isn't breadboard-friendly. That makes the 'bit durable and easy to manufacture but means you need a special connector.

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA4792:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA4792:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

If you want to do more with the BBC micro:bit, getting those pins from the card-edge connector is going to be your first hurdle. Unlike many dev-boards, the micro:bit isn't breadboard-friendly. That makes the 'bit durable and easy to manufacture but means you need a special connector.

This surface-mount edge connector is very slim and fully SMT, so it's a breeze to automate. It also only has contacts on one side, just like the 'bit, so you save money by only paying for the contacts you're going to use.

This connector version is a **Sunken Right-Angle** style, it makes the CLUE or micro:bit plug in so its aligned with the PCB rather than above. They also dig this connector for the helpful embossed pinout.

We also have a [Right-Angle style](https://core-electronics.com.au/2x40-right-angle-edge-connector-for-micro-bit.html) where your Clue or micro:bit will lay parallel and above to the PCB as well as a [Straight style.](https://core-electronics.com.au/ADA3888)
