The SparkFun Extended Qwiic Shield for Teensy is the perfect solution for those looking to delve into SparkFun's Qwiic ecosystem using Teensy boards. Designed to fit Teensy 4.1, Teensy 3.6, and Teensy 3.5, this shield connects the I2C bus (GND, 3.3V, SDA, and SCL) on your Teensy to four Qwiic connectors, two horizontally and two vertically mounted. This allows for easy daisy chaining, meaning you can connect as many Qwiic devices as you want, as long as they have different addresses.
The shield comes with a "PROG" button that is electrically parallel with the "PROG" button on the Teensy Boards. This means you have the choice of using either the button on your Teensy or the button on the shield to put your Teensy into Programming mode.
With the Qwiic Shield for Teensy, you will receive two 24-pin and one 5-pin headers. These will need to be soldered to the shield and, if necessary, to your Teensy board. Be sure to match the markings on the Qwiic Shield to the appropriate pins on your Teensy to avoid any potential damage to your boards.
The SparkFun Qwiic Connect System is a comprehensive ecosystem of I2C sensors, actuators, shields, and cables that make prototyping faster and less prone to error. All Qwiic-enabled boards use a common 1mm pitch, 4-pin JST connector. This not only reduces the amount of required PCB space but also means you can't hook it up wrong thanks to polarized connections.
