AI Thread Summary
Using the 0 and 1 digital pins with a motor shield is possible, as these pins are typically not utilized by the shield's software. Soldering wires directly onto these pins on the shield should not cause issues, provided they are not connected to any other components. The specific motor shield referenced appears to have these pins unconnected, allowing for their use. It's important to verify the shield's documentation to confirm pin functionality. Overall, using these pins while the motor shield is attached is feasible.

Hello,

I need to use the 0 and 1 digital pins while I have a motor shield on. I will include the link to the shield I plan to buy. Is it possible to solder a wire on top of the 1 and 0 pin (on the shield itself) while having no problems?

I circled the pins I am talking about in an ugly green color

Just from the ebay views pin 1 and 2 look to be not connected on the shield so I would think you could. I assume that these pins aren't used by the shield software?

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...

Thread 'EMF (Electromagnetic Field) & EHS (Electromagnetic Hyper Sensitivity)'

Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
