Rugged Circuits is pleased to announce the Aussie Shield, a new shield for the Arduino Uno, Duemilanove, and Mega family of boards. This is the shield that sits "down under".


Like our Quick Shield, the Aussie Shield breaks out all 28 I/O pins (D0-D13, A0-A5, VREF, 3x GND, VIN, RESET, +5V, +3.3V) to quick-connect terminal blocks that accept 20AWG-24AWG bare wire.

The difference is that on the Aussie Shield the Arduino plugs in upside down. Use the Aussie Shield for easy breadboarding, swapping Arduinos in fixed lab or art installations, using stacking shields standalone without an Arduino, or cross-wiring shield pins.

Now where in the heck did my reset switch disappear too. And my pin 13 pin isn't working. Any how am I going to connect my USBtiny ISP programmer. 

Just teasing you. Nice layout.

The reset switch is at the bottom right and the D13 LED pin is at the bottom left  

ISP programming...well, you'll have to pop the board off for that one.
