Interface-adapterkort Arduino TSX00005

The Arduino TSX00005 Interface adapter plate lets you mount a MKR1000 board and use standard Arduino UNO shields. It converts UNO form-factor shield connections to a MKR-compatible layout, enabling integration of UNO accessories with MKR boards while keeping a compact footprint (53.4 mm × 68.6 mm) and low weight (24 g).

Advantages

The adapter provides a straightforward mechanical and electrical interface between MKR and UNO form factors, preserving shield compatibility without modifying existing shields. Its compact dimensions and light weight make it easy to add to prototypes and final assemblies. Manufactured by Arduino and identified by MPN TSX00005, it supports reliable connectivity and consistent alignment of headers.

Suitable for

• Upgrading UNO-shield-based projects to MKR boards (for example MKR1000)
• Prototyping when you need to test UNO shields with MKR form-factor controllers
• Educational projects and labs where interchangeable shield use is required
• Space-constrained designs that require a lightweight adapter

Key specifications

How to use

Place the MKR1000 board onto the adapter plate so that the MKR headers align with the adapter’s mounting positions, then secure the board using the appropriate standoffs or screws. After the MKR board is mounted, plug any compatible UNO shield into the adapter’s UNO-style header. Ensure correct orientation of the shield and verify header alignment before powering the assembly.

Recommendations

Use with a MKR1000 or other MKR-series board and standard UNO shields. Verify mechanical clearance and pin compatibility for shields that use non-standard or tall components; avoid applying excessive mechanical stress to headers when inserting or removing shields.
