Cartridge-port header for connecting to a breadboard for development.

Suppose you want to test out some new Atari-2600 cartridge electronics, but you don’t want to burn through stacks of PCB’s while you’re testing? Here you go. Connect up some wires or solder in an empty DIP socket to use as a wire-grabber for your breadboard.

If you ignore the pinout hints on the silkscreen, this is perfectly serviceable for anything else that happens to use a 12×2 = 24 card-edge connector with .1" spacing …

The ground and +5V pins have separate breakouts on the side (duplicates) to make it slightly easier to tie them to breadboard rails.
