Preparing the connections
Before attaching any connections, we physically need a method to attach the ends of the
JST cable to the CryptoCape. The CryptoCape has 0.1" pads, which will fit 0.1" male head-
ers and female-to-female jumper wires fit nicely to that connection. One end of the JST
connector is simply four bare wires. If you solder each of these wires to a 4x1 0.1" male
header, you can make a simple connector. Using a third hand, you can solder the JST wires
to the headers and for a finishing touch, add heat-shrink around the wire and the male pin.
Just remember to put your heat shrink on before you solder! The completed connector
should look something like this:
