Raspberry Pi to Arduino Shield
Connection Bridge
PART NUMBER: 88105
DESCRIPTION
The idea behind the Raspberry Pi to Arduino shields connection bridge is to allow to use any of
the shields, boards and modules designed for Arduino in Raspberry Pi. It includes also the
possibility of connecting digital and analog sensors, using the same pinout of Arduino but with
the power and capabilities of Raspberry.
The Raspberry Pi to Arduino Shields Connection Bridge is compatible with Raspberry
Pi, Raspberry Pi (Model B+), Raspberry Pi 2 and the new Raspberry Pi 3.
In order to make complete the compatibility we have created the arduPi library which allows to
use Raspberry with the same code used in Arduino. To do so, we have implemented conversion
functions so that you can control in the same way as in Arduino all the I/O
interfaces: i2C, SPI, UART, analog, digital, in Raspberry Pi.

Let's summarize what we can do using this shield along with the arduPi library:
ï‚· Connect any Arduino Wireless module in Raspberry. Some examples: XBee 802.15.4/XBee
ZigBee, RFID, NFC, Bluetooth, Bluetooth Pro, Wifi, GPRS, 3G
ï‚· Connect any sensor (analog 0-5V, digital) to Raspberry Pi with a precession of 16b using
the ADC integrated. Connect also complex sensors through i2C and UART buses
ï‚· Connect any Arduino specific shield such as: Radiation sensor shield, CanBus, Relay
shield, etc.
ï‚· Connect any electronic module or actuator which works over i2C, SPI, UART
