## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA5384:1` (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/ADA5384:1.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

This 4-wire cable is a little over 300mm / 11.8" long and fitted with JST-SH female 4-pin connectors on both ends. Compared with the chunkier JST-PH these are 1mm pitch instead of 2mm, but still have a nice latching feel, while being easy to insert and remove.

[This cable can be used with Qwiic boards](https://core-electronics.com.au/catalogsearch/result/?q=qwiic), to easily connect sensors and drivers to boards with 0.1" socket headers or to solder-less breadboards. When used with Qwiic the colors are:

- Red - 3.3VDC Power
- Black - Ground
- Blue - I2C SDA Data
- Yellow - I2C SCL Clock

Adafruit have interleaved the data wire with ground and power to reduce cross-talk, but note that this cable is long for an I2C connection, so you may have difficulty using it with 1MHz/800KHz or even 400KHz signals. Try lowering your I2C clock if you're getting connection or data issues.
