If you need an SD card socket, and don’t want to go find one…
In this Instructable, you will learn how to make an SD card socket that plugs right into a breadboard for less than two dollars in parts (depending on how you get them of course). I show you how to use a simple straight pin header and modify it so you can plug in an SD card and attach it directly to a breadboard for data logging and prototyping. This is quick and easy so you don’t have to wait for a socket in the mail, or build/buy the SMD breakout board for it either.
