- Stays below the profile of Raspberry Pi.
- Does not block the status LEDs of Raspberry Pi
- Makes maximum use of the available area of Raspberry Pi, board size 56mm x 70mm
- Multiple pads for connecting to power (3V3, 5V and Ground)
- Raspberry Pi's signals grouped according to function (SPI, I2C, UART, GPIOs)
- Pads to connect up to four 3mm LEDs
- TO220 Footprint for voltage regulators (e.g., LM1117 for high current 3V3 power supply)
- SOIC14 breakout, this can be used to populate with 74HC125 to protect Raspberry Pi GPIOs
- Massive 365 holes (2.54mm pitch) prototyping area
- Nylon spacer to keep Proto-Plate away from Raspberry Pi's components
