.. tab:: nRF54L15 PDK

The nRF54L15 PDK does not have the Arduino-compatible header.
The connection layout may differ depending on the revision of your PDK.
GPIO assignments are recommended by the Nordic Semiconductor.

The nRF54L15 PDK operates on a lower voltage level (1.8V).
The Semtech Shield is compatible with this voltage and can be safely provided to the pin marked as 3.3V.
Due to the lower voltage, the Semtech radio cannot achieve the full transmit power, and it will reach a plateau at 15 dBm gain even when a higher value is configured.
The specification of the Semtech module describes that it is possible to provide a separate, higher voltage source for radio while maintaining the lower voltage for communication.
However, the recommended shield does not support this configuration.

.. tab:: PDK revision v0.2.1

The v0.2.1 PDK revision does not require any hardware modification, but the buttons are reused to connect the Semtech SX126X shield.
Pressing the buttons while working with the Semtech module can lead to malfunctions and undefined behavior.
This issue is caused by the limitation of the v0.2.1 PDK revision.
It is possible to assign different pins for the radio shield, but you might need to disable some of the PDK's functions, or modify connections by cutting or soldering PDK bridges.

.. tab:: PDK revision v0.3.0 / v0.7.0

To use the suggested pins, disable **UART0** (not used by Sidewalk samples) through the `Board Configurator`_ tool in the nRF Connect for Desktop.
This step is required for the shield to work as some pins are connected to **UART0** by default.

See a board configuration for the suggested pin layout:
