If you have the breadboard version of this sensor, you'll want to solder some header onto the sensor so it can be used in a breadboard.
Prepare the header strip:
Cut the strip to length if necessary. It will be easier to solder if you insert it into a breadboard - long pins down
Add the breakout board:
Place the breakout board over the pins so that the short pins poke through the breakout padsAnd Solder!
Be sure to solder all pins for reliable electrical contact.Solder the longer power/data strip first
