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

… Combined with Microchip’s ECC608 crypto chip on the Uno board, the microcontroller also provides hardware-based security for connecting projects to the cloud including AWS and Google. “As we grow, partner and invest, we will fuel the vast IoT and software markets across the industry,” said Banzi. “Inspiring the Arduino community with easy to deploy solutions that enable our users to have access to larger both flash and RAM memory for more demanding IoT projects.” “Arduino aims at supporting professional developers, makers and educators during the entire lifecycle of IoT product development, from the initial learning phases to mass deployment,” noted Violante. “Being based on the popular AVR technology, but on steroids, and with an enhanced WiFi connectivity, the Uno WiFi Rev 2 is a big step forward for all users that want to leverage the vast ecosystem of shields and libraries available for the traditional Uno form factor, in connected use cases.” Those heading to Maker Faire this weekend are invited to attend Massimo Banzi’s semi-annual ‘State of Arduino’ talk, where you can learn more about our latest developments including the MKR Vidor 4000, Uno WiFi Rev2, and our Arduino Day releases. Both the MKR Vidor 4000 and Uno WiFi Rev2 will be available on the Arduino online store at the end of June.
