Product Description

This is a very use prototyping extension board, similar to the Arduino proto shields, but it will pin extended to terminals, convenient to connect an external connection.Very simple board, nothing special, on a board with the reset button and D13 LED lamp, avoided because on extension board can't see the light on the Arduino and press under the condition of the reset button - and, of course, if it is Iteaduino don't have this kind of circumstance:) we have considered the stacked floor after operating experience, are optimize.

Customers say

Customers find the Arduino Proto Screw Shield works well and appreciate its build quality, with one noting the strong screw terminals. Moreover, the shield simplifies project assembly with its screw terminals, and customers find it particularly useful for robot projects. Additionally, they consider it cost-effective and like its clean appearance with well-aligned solder points. However, the pin quality receives mixed feedback, with one customer reporting issues with crooked connectors and bent pins.

    awesome! Having screw terminals makes prototyping stuff so much easier. Just strip a wire and pop it in.

    For a protoshield the price is pretty good too. I've paid this much for protoshields that i soldered together and didnt include screw terminals.

    Screw terminals are strong, but i tiny bit small (this isn't really an issue, just get wires that fit).
    Great perf board on top too if you want to solder something to it. However (from what i could tell) i noticed the holes on the per fboard arent electrically connected with the pins on the arduino. I think you'd have to solder them to the bottom of the headers. So yeah, there's that.

    Nice little prototyping board. I got it for the screw terminals since I have a 2.8" LCD shield that conceals access to a number of the unused pins. I would've given this one more starts, but it needs updating. They've added more pins and this board doesn't have screw terminals for all of them.

    Neat and well made..But all the screw terminals are connected to
    Arduino pins, so as a prototype board it is useless. I would have been
    so much better if the manufacturer had left these connections to the user.
    OK so that requires soldering, but the board needs soldering anyway, so no big deal.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Lacks usefulness

    The idea of screw point access is great but lack access for non-Arduino pin limits usefulness. If all you wiring is to communicate with the Arduino, or other shields, this board is well suited. But if wishing to wire to external items then I'd recommend http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006SJR97Y/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=2Z8RBPHYO63VZ&coliid=I2PJUXMMZGJFMQ

    Pro:
    Well built
    high quality board
    Fits well, unlike some boards that rock on the USB header
    Con:
    Does not use pass through headers
    No open screw point.
    To explain the con. By not using pass through header the pins are shifted, making one side of the pin difficult to access from the under side of the board. The other problem is that on the screw points are dedicated to the Arduino I/O pins. Meaning any output desired from the circuit created on the board is hard wired to the external output.

    In my case I wanted to switch an inductive load of close to 1 amp. So I used the board to wire in the transistor that handled the load. But I will have to add an external connector.

    As I write this I realize the screw point come in gangs of two. So I will unsolder, and move to where I can use for my needs.

    Works perfectly. The holes are standard spacing, and easily soldered to. The screw terminals are good quality. Will definitely be buying more of these.

    One thing to note, this screw shield does not breakout the SCL or SDA pins, nor does it pass them through for other shields to use.

    Just what I needed to get good connections between my Arduino Uno R3, my WS2812 LED strip with 150 LEDs, and my 5V AC adapter.

    EDIT (May 3, 2015)
    I just noticed that the connectors for the power and analog in pins were not lined up straight.
    So, for the shield that I received, I would not be able to put another shield on top of this one.
    It does not make a difference to me since I am not using another shield, but FYI.
