Arduino Shield Breakout Board PCB – Screw Terminal Prototyping Shield
Arduino Shield Breakout Board PCB – Screw Terminal Prototyping Shield
The Arduino Shield Breakout Board PCB is a prototyping shield that brings all Arduino Uno and Mega pins to screw terminals, enabling secure and solderless connections for your electronics projects. Ideal for prototyping, it simplifies wiring and reduces the risk of loose connections. This shield also includes a prototyping area for adding custom circuits.

What You Can Build With This
- Home automation control box with wired sensors and actuators
- Industrial monitoring system with robust screw‑terminal connections
- Custom Arduino‑based data logger with external modules
- Educational projects requiring easy, reliable prototyping
Compatibility
Designed for Arduino Uno and Arduino Mega 2560 boards. It stacks directly onto the standard header layout, and works with any 5V logic microcontroller that matches the Uno pinout. For 3.3V boards, ensure logic level compatibility when using the breakout terminals.
Wiring Notes
Plug the shield firmly onto your Arduino, then connect your external wires to the screw terminals. Always disconnect power before wiring, and tighten terminals securely. Each screw terminal can handle up to 2A; avoid exceeding this limit.
Why Buy from Compoden
Every component is sourced from verified suppliers and tested for compatibility before listing. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. Ships from Bengaluru in 3-5 days. If defective on arrival, replace within 7 days.
Is this compatible with Arduino Mega?
Yes, the shield uses the standard header layout shared by Arduino Uno and Mega, so it fits both boards perfectly.
Do I need to solder anything?
The screw terminals provide solderless connections, but the prototyping area is unconnected; you may need to solder components there for custom circuits.
Can I use this with a 3.3V Arduino?
Yes, the shield physically fits, but ensure your external components are compatible with 3.3V logic levels to avoid damage.
