Digi XBee SX 868 through hole

Alexgallego

I'm looking for a Digi XBee SX 868 module for my project, but in through hole version. But I can't find it. Does anybody know the right part number?

It looks like you could solder 2mm male headers to those castellated vias on the edge to make it through hole. An example of 2mm header.

"Castellated vias" Ah, so that's what those things are called.

A bit expensive, but I found a company doing it!

Couldn’t you just use one of Parallax’s adapter boards?

When I worked at Digi we just soldered headers onto those boards when needed (as others suggested).

They have special headers built into the dev boads for those that allow you to pop the xbee in and out. This also allows you to solder the xbee directly onto the board of a project in a surface mount style.
