Just out of curiousity what is the capacity of the big electrolytic capacitor?
And would you consider posting a the components for the board for people who don’t want to buy the kit?
Thanks for such an amazing shield!

Hi Ro-bot-x,
I’ve almost finished the shield I bought but I have one question regarding the ground solder point near the digital female headers closest to the proto-typing area/bread board area (the inner row of digital female headers), specifically where you can see “Rev 2”.
I’ve been looking through the instructions and haven’t found mention of what to do with that Ground solder point.
I was thinking of just lining up the female headers from 0 to ARF and just ignore the ground. Should I leave it blank or put a jumper pin? What would you recommend?
Regards
Hi Mark, that ground pin is in case one wants to make a simple 3 pin hardware serial connector. It is located next to the Tx and Rx pins, so if you are not using the second row of female pins for prototyping with the breadboard, and you need to connect a serial device, you can solder a 3 pin header and have a hardware serial connection.
Cheers!
