Easy input and output for sensors and actuators. 

Overview

Fast robotics prototyping made simple thanks to this expansion shield. No need of soldering and wiring, things that often becomes an issue when a bridged connection happens and components break. Often, without this solution, robot prototyping or electronics DIY becomes a very long term project.

The DFRobot Expansion shield introduced to the market the famous color code for sensors and actuators input and output. The 3 pin format for Signal, Voltage and Ground is extremely useful, specially if used altogether with our increasingly large range of modules, sensors and devices that just fit. Alternatively, the board includes power input for salvaged power supplies or laboratory power supplies. Very common Xbee socket for multipurpose wireless connectivity such as RF, wireless, bluetooth. 

The new version includes a voltage hardware setting through a jumper to allow compatibility with a bigger range of components at 3.3v. It also includes a Servo external power, with a protective diode. This way you can enable a large range of servos from your Arduino.

Latest version features a convenient switch that lets you program your ATmega328 boards like UNO, while you have another Serial device connected like a Xbee. Switch it, program it and get it back up and running with another switch. You don't need to disassemble your hardware or wiring. A LED on top board and a reset button is in order to make it just a natural extension to Arduino boards. The LED is connected to pin 13.

Features:

  • Compatible with the Arduino Due
  • 3.3V/5V operating voltage select
  • Switch for wireless communication & programme
  • More Easily recognitive interfaces
  • Colorful header for illustrating digital or analog pins
  • Immersion gold surface

Tech specs

  • Input Voltage
  • 7-12V, PWR_IN
  • 4.8-6V, SERVO_PWR, depending on your servo
  • Compatible module voltage: 5V/3.3V
  • Support interface: I2C, SPI, Xbee (Xbee pro), Bluetooth, APC220

Improve indoor air quality with Arduino
Improve indoor air quality with Arduino
May 2, 2024

… about the value of air quality, while simultaneously introducing them to some core STEM concepts, Arduino has you covered. The Arduino Greenhouse Kit and the Arduino Explore IoT Kit include experiments involving air quality, allowing users to build their own sensors and tracking tools to measure a range of data points like humidity, moisture, and the presence of particles like CO2. These projects both work using the  Arduino MKR IoT Carrier Rev2, which has a VOC sensor. Use AI to monitor air quality [October 10, 2024 update] The Nicla family now includes the Arduino Nicla Sense Env, ready to provide real-time data on air quality – monitoring temperature and humidity and detecting TVOCs, NO2, O3, and other gasses – both indoors and outdoors, thanks to AI-ready Renesas sensors. Find out more. Share your projects Have you created a project to monitor or improve the air quality inside your home? If so, share it on our Project Hub! Whether you're passionate about conservation or simply curious about the possibilities, now is your chance to join the community and make a difference. Don't miss out — embrace innovation while honoring our planet.
