Building a project requires more than just the main microcontroller. SunFounder offers a curated selection of Arduino compatible components that are essential for any maker's toolkit. Unlike generic marketplaces, we verify the compatibility of every Arduino shield and module we sell. From prototyping necessities to specialized communication modules, our Arduino accessories are designed to work seamlessly together, ensuring you spend less time troubleshooting and more time creating.
○ Expansion Shields: Simplify your wiring with our I/O expansion shields and screw terminal boards, designed to make connecting sensors to your Arduino board secure and messy-free.
○ Connectivity Modules: Add Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or RF capabilities to your projects with our communication parts for Arduino.
○ Prototyping Basics: Stock up on essential jumper wires, resistors, and power supplies that form the backbone of every circuit.
○ Are these parts compatible with the official Arduino boards?
Yes, SunFounder Arduino accessories and shields are designed to follow the standard pinout (R3 header layout), making them 100% compatible with official Arduino Uno, Mega, and Leonardo boards.
○ Do you provide datasheets for the components?
Absolutely. Each Arduino compatible part in our store comes with a link to our online Wiki, where you can find datasheets, pinout diagrams, and example code (sketches) to get started.
○ What is the difference between a shield and a module?
A shield is a board that plugs directly on top of the Arduino (stackable), eliminating the need for wires. A module is a separate component (like a sensor) that typically connects via jumper wires or a cable. We offer a wide variety of both in our Arduino accessories collection.
