Arduino Nano (and its many clones) are low cost and plentiful. Their small measurement, simple programmability and suppleness make them a fantastic alternative for a lot of small to medium-scale microcontroller tasks. Most frequently they arrive with DIP headers to allow them to be soldered into protoboard or instantly onto a customized PCB. Nevertheless, for fast prototyping, this is usually a little bit of a ache. This huge and easy-to-use Arduino Nano Breakout Board with Screw Terminals is a simple method to each rapidly connect wires for prototyping whereas additionally being well-protected sufficient for use in a extra everlasting set up.
Screw terminals are a favorite connector of many hackers and makers. They’re simple to make use of, they usually create a very good electrical reference to any wires clamped down. You may even match a number of totally different wires right into a single terminal, relying on the wire gauge. As an alternative of attempting to make use of Dupont cables to connect to the DIP pins (which all the time appear to fall off throughout debugging, inflicting all types of points till you discover), you get a dependable, low-resistance connection.
The designer, FLOW_STATE, has additionally created and included a 3D-printed housing for the board. This permits connection to the USB port on the Nano whereas defending every thing else from unintentional shorts. It’s actually not weatherproof, but it surely’s nice to have a case to maintain issues wanting neat and tidy and hold the Nano away from particles. It is perhaps a easy mission, however having a number of breakouts like these available could make quick prototyping a lot simpler, permitting you to concentrate on implementing your thought as a substitute of messing round with unfastened connections.
