Yesterday I received bunch of these shields ordered from Adafruit: http://www.adafruit....&products_id=51 http://www.adafruit....products_id=187 Haven't tried them yet with Netduino, but I had used the first one in past with Arduino and I think its very well designed. Especially if you plan to test some ICs than it has a dedicated pads for it (up to 20 pins). You also get two LEDs and general use button. Important to note that reset button is brought up so it's not obscured by the shield. Important to note that board is double-sided so you can solder on both sides. If you don't need the extra components you can order just the PCB for half the price: http://www.adafruit....&products_id=55 But you also need the headers http://www.adafruit....&products_id=85 Or if you don't plant to stack shields simple break-away headers like this (you can cut them easily to proper length): http://www.sparkfun....products_id=116 The other shield is just regular single-sided prototyping surface but you get lots of free space. 0 user(s) are reading this topic0 members, 0 guests, 0 anonymous users | ||||||||||||||
