Description:
This Arduino data log shield is a dedicated ,well-designed and not expensive data
logging shield. Which is originally designed by Adafruit, we only add some power pins
and change the appearance to make it good-looking. And most important is that we
have soldered the pins for you, so you needn’t do that, Now it can directly plug into
Arduino compatible UNO/Mega board.
This popular is"R3" compatible so you can use it with just about any Arduino or
compatible. You can be up and run with it in less than 15 minutes - saving data to files
on any FAT16 or FAT32 formatted SD card, to be read by any plotting, spreadsheet or
analysis program. This tutorial will also show you how to use two free software
programs to plot your data. The included RTC (Real Time Clock) can be used to
timestamp all your data with the current time so that you know precisely what
happened when!
Feature:
 SD card interface works with FAT16 or FAT32 formatted cards. Built in 3.3v level
shifter circuitry lets you read or write super fast and prevents damage to your
SD card
 Real time clock (RTC) keeps the time going even when the Arduino is
unplugged. The coin cell battery backup lasts for years
 Included libraries and example code for both SD and RTC mean you can get
going quickly
 Prototyping area for soldering connectors, circuitry or sensors.
 Two onfigurable indicator LEDs
 Onboard 3.3v regulator is both a reliable reference voltage and also reliably
runs SD cards that require a lot of power to run
 Uses the "R3 layout" I2C and ICSP/SPI ports so it is compatible with a wide
variety of Arduinos and Arduino-compatibles
