The Sparkfun Qwiic Shield is an easy-to-mount board that provides an easy way to integrate the Qwiic Connect system into your Arduino-based device. This shield connects your Arduino I2C bus to a range of SparkFun Qwiic connectors and provides the circuitry to convert the 5V required by the I2C boards in our Qwiic system to 3.3V. As long as your devices are located on different addresses, the Qwiic system allows daisy-chaining, i.e. you can stack as many sensors as you want to create a tower of transmitting power!
The Qwiic Shield has four Qwiic connectors, all on the same I2C bus, and a large prototyping area to design and manufacture your own unique circuits. The shielding also has a few 3x1 rails that help with prototyping, as well as buses for mass, 5V and even 3.3V. We have installed four mounting connections in the same design as our Qwiic sensors, so that you can attach your small board to the top of the shield.
