The DFRobot SD Module (DFR0071) is a breakout board that adds standard SD and Micro SD (TF) card storage to your Arduino projects. Use it for data logging, file storage, and transferring data between your microcontroller and removable flash memory.
The module sits directly on top of an Arduino board and includes a switch to select between the standard SD and Micro SD card slots. It's also compatible with other microcontrollers via SPI.
Key Features
- Dual Card Support – Accepts both standard SD and Micro SD (TF) cards with a selector switch
- Arduino Shield Form Factor – Plugs directly onto Arduino Uno and compatible boards
- SPI Interface – Works with Arduino and other microcontrollers via standard SPI
- Mass Storage & Data Logging – Read and write files for sensor logging, configuration storage, and more
Ideal For
- Sensor data logging and environmental monitoring
- Storing configuration files and parameters
- Audio playback and media projects
- Transferring data between devices
Package Contents
- 1× SD Module (DFR0071)

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- breakout
- A breakout board carries a small or fine-pitched component and brings its connections out to standard, breadboard- and header-friendly pins. Describing a part as a breakout means it can be wired into a project without soldering directly to the component's tiny contacts.
- Flash memory
- Flash memory is non-volatile memory that retains stored data even when power is removed, and can be erased and rewritten in blocks. It lets data such as firmware, settings or saved records persist across power cycles.
- microcontroller
- A microcontroller is a small computer on a single chip that runs a stored program and controls connected inputs and outputs such as buttons, sensors, displays and communication interfaces. In a device built around one, it is the part that executes the code and coordinates the device's behaviour.
- Shield
- An add-on board that plugs into a main controller board to give it extra features such as sensing, motor control or communication. Knowing a product supports shields helps you judge whether it can connect neatly into an existing maker-board setup.
- SPI
- A fast serial communication bus often used for displays, memory cards, and sensors. It matters because SPI devices need specific pins for clock and data, plus a separate chip-select line for each device.
