Arduino UNO Sensor Shield V5.0 Expansion Board

The Sensor Shield V5.0 Expansion Board is a highly versatile tool designed to simplify the connection of sensors and actuators to your Arduino UNO. Retaining the core advantages of the V4.0 version, this upgraded shield utilizes a stackable design and a premium PCB Immersion Gold process for superior conductivity and long-term durability. It acts as a central hub, breaking out the limited pins of the UNO into organized, easy-to-use interfaces.

Streamlined Connectivity

Every functional I/O pin is broken out into a standard 3-pin “Signal-VCC-GND” format. This “buckled port” system allows you to connect sensors and modules using simple 2.54mm dual-female cables, eliminating the need for breadboards and messy wiring. Whether you are connecting digital buttons or analog sensors, the clear labeling ensures a fast and error-free setup.

Multi-Interface Support

The V5.0 shield is packed with dedicated communication ports. It includes specific headers for an I2C (IIC) interface, Bluetooth modules, SD card communication, and APC220 wireless RF modules. Furthermore, it features a dedicated RB URF v1.1 ultrasonic sensor interface and supports both serial and parallel connections for 12864 LCDs. For robotics enthusiasts, the board can even act as a breakout for a 32-channel servo controller

Note

Power Supply Tip: While the shield facilitates the connection of many modules, the Arduino UNO’s onboard regulator has limited current. If you are connecting power-hungry devices like multiple servos or backlit LCDs, consider using an external power source for those specific components to avoid resetting the microcontroller.
