About this item

  • What’s an Uno Shield?: An Uno shield is an add-on board that plugs (stacks) directly into an Uno, expanding its functionality with additional features like motor drivers, sensors, or communication interfaces. It aligns with the Uno's pin layout, making it easy to stack and integrate without extra wiring. With this NRF-Shield, you can add RF communication via the Nordic nRF24L01+ family of modules (mini, standard, +PA+LNA) to your project.
  • Compatibility: The NRF-Shield is designed not just for the Uno microcontroller development board, but for any board that shares the same footprint. This includes the Uno R3, Uno R4, Leonardo, Mega, and many others. Although the NRF-Shield is stackable, it is recommended, for improved RF quality, to keep the NRF-Shield at the top of the stack.
  • Packed with Features: The NRF-Shield is unlike any other. It is packed with features. The NRF interface allows to add any of the three common nRF24L01+ modules (mini, standard, +PA+LNA). Onboard is also an I2C interface, an SPI interface, and a prototyping section. For a full description of these features please see the Datasheet, which can be found on our “PTSolns Documentation Repository”.
  • What’s Included: For the BASIC Package - Each package includes four (4) PTSolns NRF-Shield. For the DELUXE Package - Each package includes two (2) PTSolns NRF-Shield plus the Deluxe Package. The *Deluxe* package comes with useful hardware to assemble the shield. See product image for details. SOLDERING IS REQUIRED.

    Product Description

    PTSolns NRF-Shield for Arduino Uno R3 form factor, designed to easily add Nordic nRF24L01+ RF communication modules. The shield features slots for common nRF24L01+ modules (Mini, Standard, +PA+LNA), power options from 3.3V microcontroller pin or external supply, hardware selection pins for flexible coding, and supports up to three I2C devices at 5V logic (3.3V for Due). Canadian designed with full Arduino Uno R3, Mega, Leonardo, Due compatibility.
    The NRF-Shield is part of the Canadian designed Shield-Series. This shield allows the user to easily add RF communication to their project. Notable features of the prototyping Uno shield include:
    • Interface any of the common Nordic nRF24L01+ transceiver modules (Mini, Standard, +PA+LNA).
    • Power transceiver from microcontroller 3.3V pin, or from external supply.
    • Compatible with Arduino Uno R3, Mega, Leonardo, Due, and other similar microcontrollers.
    • Interface up to three separate I2C devices at 5V (3.3V if using the Due).
    • Hardware selection pins to allow for code flexibility.
      The NRF-Shield is compatible with the PTSolns Uno R3+, other branded Uno R3, Uno R4, Mega, and any other microcontroller development board with the same form factor.

      Like all PTSolns products, the NRF-Shield comes with a datasheet. This, along with other supporting material, can be found on our "PTSolns Documentation Repository".

        An excellent NRF shield for Uno, Mega and Other Arduino microcontrollers

        A high quality board. Flexible. Extremely well thought out. I had a question about, contacted support, and they responded within an hour. I would highly recommend this board for use with NRF transceivers where you need to interface with I2C devices.
