SparkFun Ludus ProtoShield

SparkFun Ludus ProtoShield (DEV-13310)

This is an Arduino shield that integrates an H-Bridge Driver and breaks out all I/O ports to three-pin headers on a GND / PWR / SIG standard. This enables quick prototyping and integration of Arduino projects w/o the need of a breadboard.

Ludus is the mascot of the SparkFun Education team. It is a highly intelligent octopus.
