Start wiring

Shield

Confirm the data interface matches your host board.

Module pins: Input 1, Input 2, Input 3, Input 4, LED 1-4, Analog inputs (via ADS1015 I2C), Cap touch pads, 40-pin header. Schematik maps them to your board in the app.

Add-ons

269 other options

About 270 add-ons across Pi HATs, Arduino shields, and FeatherWings. The same function — motor control, PoE, display — usually ships once per host connector family. Get the host board right first.
