Overview
Grove Base Shield provides a simple way to connect with Arduino boards and help you get rid of breadboard and jumper wires. With the 16 on-board Grove Connectors, you can easily connect with over 300 Grove modules! The pinout of Base Shield V2 is compatible with the Arduino UNO, Arduino Leonardo and the Arduino Mega.
The Arduino Shield usually has the same pin position as the Arduino development board and can be stacked and plugged into the Arduino to implement specific functions.
Power Compatible:
Every Grove connector has four wires, one of which is the VCC. However, not every micro-controller main board needs a supply voltage of 5V, some boards only need 3.3V. That's why we add a power toggle switch to Base Shield V2 so that you can select the suitable voltage of the micro-controller main board you are using via this switch.
For example, if you are using Arduino UNO with Base Shield V2, please turn the switch to 5V position; while using Seeeduino Arch with Base Shield V2, please turn the switch to 3.3V.
Board Compatible:
The pinout of Base Shield V2 is the same as Arduino Uno R3, however Arduino Uno is not the only one that the Base Shield V2 is compatible with, here we listed the boards that we have confirmed that can be used with Base Shield V2:
- Arduino Uno
- Seeeduino V4.2
- Arduino Mega / Seeeduino Mega
- Seeduino LoraWan
- Arduino Leonardo / Seeeduino Lite
- Arduino 101
- Arduino Due
- Intel Edison
- Linkit One

Learn to set up an Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect to use MicroPython.
Team Ikaro is a vibrant group of high school students from the Pacinotti Archimede Institute in Rome, sharing a strong passion for electronics and turning heads in the world of robotics! Specializing in Soccer Lightweight games (where robot-soccer players compete to score goals on a miniature field), they clinched the first place at the Romecup 2024 and won Italy’s national Robocup in Verbania earlier this year – earning the right to compete in the world championships in Eindhoven, where they placed third in the SuperTeam competition. The brains behind the bots Utilizing the versatile Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect, the team has crafted highly efficient robots that feature ultrasound sensors, PCB boards, a camera, four motors, a solenoid kicker and omni-directional wheels, all meticulously assembled in the school’s FabLab. Mentored by professor Paolo Torda, Team Ikaro exemplifies the spirit of innovation and teamwork bringing together three talented students: Francesco D’Angelo, the team leader, focuses on system design and mechanics; Flavio Crocicchia, the software developer, ensures the robots’ brains are as sharp as possible; Lorenzo Addario specializes in camera software, making sure the robots can “see” and react swiftly on the field. Their combined efforts have led to a seamless integration of hardware and software, and established a foundation of passion and ambition for future success in their careers. Future goals After their first taste of global competition, Team Ikaro is determined to continue refining their robots, leveraging every bit of knowledge and experience they gain – whether in the classroom, lab, or live challenges. At Arduino, we are proud to sponsor such brilliant young minds and look forward to seeing what they will accomplish next!
