- | The three jumper wires then connect to **ground**, **clock** and **data** pins on the Arduino. If using a “traditional” Arduino board (Uno, etc.), use Digital pin **13** for clock and **11** for data. For the ATmega 32u4 or Teensy boards, use **B1** for clock and **B2** for data. The ground wire can connect to any GND pin on the Arduino. | + | The three jumper wires then connect to **ground**, **clock** and **data** pins on the Arduino.
