TinkerKit Sensor Shield V.2

Features of TinkerKit Sensor Shield V.2

• TinkerKit Sensor Shield V.2 allows you to hook up the TinkerKit sensors and actuators directly to the Arduino, without the use of the breadboard
   
• It has 12 standard TinkerKit 3 pin connectors.
   
  • 6 connectors (labeled 10-15) are analog inputs
  • 00-05 are analog outputs connected to the PWM capable outputs of the Arduino Board
    • It is possible to change these to digital inputs, in which case they will report either high or low, but nothing in between
       
• On a Standard Arduino DuemilaNove board the pins are:
   
  • Pin 11 on the Arduino is 00 on the shield
  • Pin 10 on the Arduino is 01 on the shield
  • Pin 9 on the Arduino is 02 on the shield
  • Pin 6 on the Arduino is 03 on the shield
  • Pin 5 on the Arduino is 04 on the shield
  • Pin 3 on the Arduino is 05 on the shield
     
• A green LED signals that the shield is correctly powered
   
• Standard 6mm pushbutton allows you to Reset the board
   
• The 4 pin TWI socket allows communication to any device supporting the I2C protocol through the Wire library on Arduino. 5V and Ground are provided on the socket
   
• Note: on Arduino the I2C bus uses analog inputs 4 and 5, using the TWI connection precludes the use of those analog inputs
   
• The 4 pin Serial socket allows the board to communicate with other devices that support serial communication. 5V and Ground are provided on the socket for your convenience
   
• If you're sending or receiving data to and from the computer this serial connector is not available
   
• Two mounting holes are provided in the same position found on the Arduino board
   
• A third hole allows you to see the led connected to pin 13 of the Arduino
