We were asked if we were to support the raspberry Pi, a fellow british innovation, sure we are happy to.
This is a convienient small break out board for the Raspberry PI.
- It has an XBee style connector for XRF / XBee / RN-XV / XBT / RF-BEE etc.
- Has the SPI and I2C pins on one standard 8 way header and the Raspberry PI's 8 general purpose I/O pins on another for easy access.
- Comes as a kit of parts that needs to be soldered.
- Construction is very easy and suitable for children with basic soldering skills.
- Pinouts are:
Header 1 (I2C and SPI) 8 way 0.1 pin male
Header 2 (GPIO) 8 way 0.1 pin male
Header 3 (XBee) 20 way 2mm pin female

Support and docs
Our forum is called OpenMicros.org, it's not only where to get support for our products but it's where we talk about what people have built, want to build or just shoot the breeze. You are most welcome to drop by. The articles section of the site is where all our documentation is.
Some sample useful code sources, let us know about your project or code samples too.
Raspberry Pi GPIO Inputs in Python
Using the Raspberry Pi’s serial port
Getting Started with Raspberry Pi GPIO and Python.
At Ciseco we love to make "stuff". Our passion is making complex technology easy! We want you to build exciting stuff too. We want you to turn dreams into reality! Just add imagination and an eagerness to get stuck in and you are in business. Our customers already build the implausible, the once impossible, perhaps even the most valuable. With us and a little effort...."you can".
Once soldered yours will look like this, you dont have to install all the headers if you are not going to need them.
