Terminal Shield for Arduino
The Terminal Shield breaks out all the Arduino headers to handy screw terminals, making it really easy
to connect external wires without using a soldering iron. Ideal for quick experiments or for robust
connections. The center area of the shield is also a huge prototyping area, allowing you to add your
own parts to suit your project. A blue "power" LED shows when your Arduino is powered up, and there
are also red, green, and blue general-purpose LEDs with current-limiting resistors. The Terminal Shield
comes with all the supporting components already fitted as surface-mount parts so you can start using it
right away, and stackable headers have been provided to allow you to mount another shield on top.
Features
• Gold-plated surface: solders easily and very resistant to finger oil, etc
• Large prototyping area with through-plated holes
• Clearly marked GND and 5V rails beside prototyping area
• Blue surface-mount “power on” LED
• 2 × 100nF power supply smoothing capacitors pre-fitted as surface-mount parts
• Reset button wired through to the Arduino so you can reset it even with the shield mounted over
the top
• 3 general-purpose surface-mount LEDs (red, green, blue) with current limiting resistors pre-
fitted: drive HIGH to illuminate
• Overlay printed on both the top and the bottom of the board so you don’t have to turn it over to
see what you’re soldering onto
• Sexy rounded corners
