Arduino Sensor Shield V5 0 Manual

is an expansion board designed to simplify the connection of multiple sensors, servos, and modules to an Arduino Uno or Mega. It eliminates the need for complex breadboard wiring by providing dedicated power, ground, and signal pins for every digital and analog I/O port. Key Connection Layout

: Every I/O pin (D0-D13 and A0-A5) is broken out into a Signal (S), VCC (V), and Ground (G) stack. Operating Voltage : Typically 5V-6V.

: All digital (D0–D13) and analog (A0–A5) pins are arranged in 3-pin stacks: Top (GND) , Middle (VCC) , and Bottom (Signal) . arduino sensor shield v5 0 manual

Connected directly to the corresponding Arduino digital or analog pin. 2. Dedicated Communication Interfaces

I2C, SPI, UART (Serial), Bluetooth, APC220, SD Card, and LCD (Parallel/Serial). 2. Board Layout and Component Mapping is an expansion board designed to simplify the

Servos use standard 3-pin connectors that line up perfectly with the shield.

Beyond the standard pins, the shield includes dedicated interfaces for specialized modules: Operating Voltage : Typically 5V-6V

A separate 4-pin breakout containing . This allows you to attach serial Wi-Fi modules (like the ESP8266) or connect to a computer via an FTDI adapter. LCD Parallel & Serial Interfaces

int readUltrasonic() digitalWrite(trigPin, LOW); delayMicroseconds(2); digitalWrite(trigPin, HIGH); delayMicroseconds(10); digitalWrite(trigPin, LOW); long duration = pulseIn(echoPin, HIGH); int distance = duration * 0.034 / 2; return distance;

Servos pull significant current and require external power to prevent the Arduino from resetting. Remove the jumper from the shield.
