Really informative and concise beginners' tutorial. No distracting music or unnecessary dialogue - very good.

I love how simply explained these videos are. You come off so calm and confident. Keep it up, man! :D

it never occurred to me to use the board to lock the pins while soldering. i love it when people show me how stupid i am.

You rock! Great quality content. Appreciate the quick cuts in the editing to make it fast and efficient!

Great job! Your very special brand of informational videos has helped me and many more!

Thanks a lot Great video... In detail... I knew nothing about male-female pins... But after watching this, I know everything about them. Thank you again. Great effort..

Thank you for this basic informational video. It's so hard to find information on this stuff when you are new and don't know the proper name for any of it so you can't look it up. This helped a ton

excellent work sir, btw i had been struggling to find the proper name for a single jumper cable but thanks to your video finally got a hold of these as i really needed them for my board :)

Not what I was looking for but your calm voice and the reasonable video length made me watch til the end anyway.

Thanks, that video helped me a lot understanding the connectors and the breadboard.

Love these videos, Thanks for making them.

This is great! I appreciate the concise explanations and tight editing.

OMG, just what I wanted, looking to take my electronics from ‘Plug n Play’ kits to actually soldiering thing. Thank you

thank tou sir this was very helpful ti clarify and I appreciate you actually showing how it's done and explaining all the steps

Of course removing a pin in the female headers before cutting makes it much easier. Never thought of that. Great tip.

Proud Patreon supporter. Thank you for always producing such educational content in an efficient manner!

How did you get a cricket into your multi-meter?

The way of presenting the informations is AMAZING...clear language ..respect

Great video. I think even well educated people can learn many things from this guy.

You are a really good teacher

Thanks for the video!

Great video, great wisdom... Good job Sir 👍👍👍

For years, I used all sorts of connectors for my small 12v projects, and it was such a hassle! No more crimping : I just discovered these kind of headers and am using them everywhere! They are light, easy to work with,… I just solder wires to these headers, and cover my joints with heatshrink tubing. Again, no more crimping! :)

Loved this Chanel 👍

Brilliant! Thank you

Thx for an excellent description on how to handle female header pin cutting. Great approach to pull the next pin, cut, and sand. Will try this in the morning.

searched cause need to buy header pins for my teensy, got the info I needed, thanks

1:28 dramatic soldering iron :D

I would strongly recommend you switch over to breadboard/prototype board with Plated Through Holes (PTH). You solder pins and components to the plated holes and don't need to use glue. They are much stronger and better looking without glue. The plated holes make convenient places to solder your circuit wires, and by bridging spans of holes with solder, you can make rudimentary routing right on the board with solder bridges. You will never use non-plated breadboard again. Also make sure you use no-clean solder, or solder that cleans off easily like water washable or alcohol washable solder flux. Rosin core solder makes a mess and can eat your board if not removed, and is really hard to get off without harsh chemicals.

Thanks for the helpful video! Keep it up :)

Thanks for the video, one question. Does is matter on which side you solder the pins?

Learned a lot Thank you :)

Thanks a lot sir.

perfect video liked and subscribed

great stuff, thanks!

Well explained sir thank you

Gracias amigo !

GReat vid. thank you!

Sir I like all of your videos

Wonderfull Video!!!!!!!!! Very useful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Super usefull!!

Awesome stuff. Really clear and easy to understand. For the male headers, do you recommend soldering the short or the long then of the male header to the underside or upside of the board?

Nice video, thanks :)

Hi, ive got a problem, my female pin headers won't fit on one row, like trying to get them to match up to an esp32(I need to put several pin headers)

Great video thanks

Thank you for the video. And where can I buy those?

Great video - where do you get that breadboard at

very usefull

You could add that theres more professional way to connect pins by crimping wires. Those wireends are called DUPONT and you can make connections looking as good as the where made by professionals.

God Bless

Great video! Most tutorials on Arduino boards don't start so basic. QUESTION: I have a 16mb Adafruit SoundBoard trigger, with 0-10 audio 'holes' available. What is the advantage to not simple solder a header pin for every connection? All 11? What's the advantage to only doing two, three, or four, etc? ..... thanks again!!!

Sweet Jeebus, I thought my stereo exploded when those laud high pitched screeches started! O_o

*Which Camera and lens you use to record these Wonderful videos?*

Thanks for your video - If you have a female header installed on a pi, how can you connect this to a P.HAT which also has a female header

Would anyone know how to remove a free header from its plastic. one that is not attached to any board. No soldering just removing the plastic freely from these pin headers Thanks in advance.

obrigado!!

If not using it to connect to another board, e.g. to connect to wires or breadboard, does it matter which side you perform the soldering?

Is it okay to solder two separate pin headers onto a board that have the same spacing but are not connected in an entire row?

Hi @RimstarOrg in case of a connection using these wires, how to prevent them from falling off? Do you use hot glue? Thanks for making this video :)

thanks i wasn't knowing how to cut female headers

Can you cut off the edge of the jumper wires to directly solder in into a perf board???

what soldering iron are you using? looks like a winner. if you recommend something different , i want to know that too!! just need something simple but effective. thanks !!!!!!!!!!!

I need jumper wires that go onto header pins that are 1.00mm in diameter but I can't find any. The diameter of normal header pins taht you see on arduino is 0.6mm so these pins are much larger. Do you know what they are called?

Are these also known as "through pins?" I have been trouble shooting an old Teac A-3440 reel to reel. The guys on the talk forums keep saying these units were known for "bad soldering on the through pins." Thanks

If we use Directly Male jumper wire insted of Header Will They work?

Nice. thanks. can these pin male and female headers be used power cables for 220v ac , till 2Amps. cap. ??

How to connect respeaker mic-2 pihat and the fan on the raspberry pi at the same time

When you have a choice, is there a rule to choose between a male or femal header ? For example I have this 16 channel multiplexer with holes but no pins. I'm also building a sensor mat that will link to the multiplexed analog test pins. In my scenario I may change independently each device 1st solution is to put male header pins on the sensor map, and female on the multiplexer output, and mount the sensor map on the multiplexer 2nd solution is to put female header pins on the sensor map, and mount the male pins soldered on the multiplexer on it. 3rd would be to have long-female that provides both male and female connection on the multiplexer but this complicates the question (and I can't find easily a 16pins long male with female header, albeit I didn't search for a long time) Is there a rule of preference ? some most-use cases ? some canons ? for example any sensor device may have most of the time male pins ? Or can we expect each project to have his own connection policy ? My 1st try will be to chose both male pins and mount them on a breadboard. I'll create later a pcb that would link them all together, but that creates additional wire connections that would lower the precision of the sensor mat a bit, I guess.

Hi, what is the name of the tool you use in 3:57?

Did the jumper wires can fit in the female header?

if you put on jumper wires on a stacking header for a raspberry pi, Will the stacking head still act like a GPIO pin?

I have a bluetooth speaker im trying to repair. The board to board dual 5 pin connector has broke and the power is not getting to the main pcb from the line in pcb. Can I use pinheaders instead of board to board connection? Sorry I'm really new to pcb work.

@4:40, where to get these solid core wires? Name and link

Is gluing the headers really important? If so why doesn't Arduino do it for example?

Can I cut the Male Pin Jumper wire Breadboard Arduino Dupont Cable head to suntitule this pin?

Please make a video "transistor as a amplifier"

i like the vido

I need a female to female 40 pin gpio header, not cable, do you know where I can get one from or how to make one, thanks

Why not put female headers on the level shift board? Why not put male headers upside down? Use the headers in the way you need them. This video teaches you to take the long way around the barn.

Why are you not using a perfboard with copper pads?

Why are you doing a continuity test like that you'd want to check if the solder accidentally connected to the pin next to it it's obvious that the soldered pin is connected.

Why your hands were so shaky

Here are videos about better jumper wires: ukposts.info/have/v-deo/nXlkmq6Lf2yXl30.html , ukposts.info/have/v-deo/hmOrf2-dsX-Bo6M.html , ukposts.info/have/v-deo/f5uTg4CKrZ50yIk.html , ukposts.info/have/v-deo/fH6froxon6GDuX0.html .

There must be a more professional way of doing connectors.

You doing ok? Your hands seem to shake more than they used to...

i thought he said "hi gay"

Americans will get offended because you said female and male pin headers
