Description
The Analog Shield was created in collaboration with Stanford University and the TI University Program and is manufactured by Digilent Inc. The Analog Shield offers up to 4 channels of 16-bit analog signal input and output and is integrated with fixed 5V and variable 7.5V power supplies. This board comes with a small 170-point solderless breadboard that can be affixed to the shield itself for prototyping with through-hole components.
