Arduino MKR Proto Shield Prototyping Board

The Arduino MKR Proto Shield is a dedicated prototyping board designed for the compact MKR form factor Arduino boards. It seamlessly connects to your MKR board via the included male and female headers, providing a stable and reliable platform for developing custom circuits and projects.

This shield offers a duplicate breakout for every pin on the host MKR board, making it incredibly easy to connect external components and sensors. It features an extensive array of solderable through-holes arranged on a standard 2.54mm (0.1-inch) grid, offering maximum flexibility for your breadboarding and permanent circuit assembly needs.

Key Features

• Provides easy access to 21 digital I/O pins and 7 analogue input pins.
• Standard 2.54mm grid spacing ensures compatibility with a vast range of through-hole components, such as ICs, resistors, capacitors, and connectors.
• Sturdy board construction designed for reliable prototyping and testing.
• Simplifies the connection between your MKR board and custom circuitry, speeding up development time.

Applications

Ideal for electronics hobbyists, students, and professional engineers, the MKR Proto Shield is perfect for creating custom shields, developing sensor interfaces, building control systems, and constructing one-off project prototypes without the need for custom PCB fabrication.

Specifications

• Digital I/O Pins: 21
• Analogue Input Pins: 7
• Pin Spacing: 2.54mm (0.1-inch) grid
