Prototype Shield for Arduino UNO

The Prototype Shield for Arduino UNO is a must-have tool for any electronics enthusiast or developer working on custom Arduino projects. It allows you to design, build, and test your own circuits right on top of your Arduino Uno board without messy wiring or separate breadboards.

This shield comes with a mini breadboard that adheres directly to the prototyping area. It features a clean layout with through-hole solder points, making it easy to permanently mount components once your prototype is finalized. In addition, you get full access to all Arduino pins, clearly labeled for easy identification.

Moreover, the shield includes a reset button, extra power rails (5V and GND), and breakout points for ICs, resistors, LEDs, and more. It also offers space for SMD components, allowing you to experiment with different hardware designs using both traditional and surface-mount elements.

Whether you’re designing a sensor interface, a robotic controller, or a custom signal processor, this shield provides a stable and professional platform for your electronics work. It’s a staple in classrooms, makerspaces, and personal workbenches alike.

You can combine this shield with parts from our Electronics Components or expand your builds with Arduino and Accessories.
