This shield is able to controll the pump and the valve of a blood pressure meter. What you want to inflate with it, is up to you.

Intro

With this shield, you are able to controll the pump and the valve of a portable heart pressure meter, what you can buy for cheep and pump up everything, you want.

Output

The pump and valve needs 3.3 volts, therefor there is a voltage-regulator attached to the shield and with a power selector jumper, you can decide, if you want to use 5 or 3.3 volts. The pump is just a DC motor and the valve a solenoid. Diods to protect the circuit from back flowing current are also placed. The outputs are on the ports Digital 3 and Digital 6. Two LEDs near the screw-terminals show the status of this output (Yes, ON and OFF).

Input

Three analog Inputs on the PCB are placed with pin-headers. Just build in the resistors matching to your sensor. They are connected to the Analog 1 to 3.
