In ZMK, a *shield* is a *PCB* or *hardwired set of components* that when combined with a MCU only [board](#what-is-a-board) like the Proton-C or nice!nano, results in a complete usable keyboard. Examples would be keyboard PCBs like the Kyria or Corne. The *shield* is usually the big PCB containing all the keys.

When a keyboard accepts a small “PCB MCU module” (e.g. *Arduino Pro Micro*) for its “brains”, then it's important to conceptually separate the hardware into a [board](#what-is-a-board) PCB and a [shield](#what-is-a-shield) PCB. When a keyboard accepts a small “PCB MCU module” (e.g. _Arduino Pro Micro_) for its “brains”, then it's important to conceptually separate the hardware into a [board](#what-is-a-board) PCB and a [shield](#what-is-a-shield) PCB.
The [shield](#what-is-a-shield) is a brainless shell containing all the keys, RGB LEDs, encoders etc. It maps all of these features to a standard pin footprint, such as the Pro Micro pinout. The [shield](#what-is-a-shield) is a brainless shell containing all the keys, RGB LEDs, encoders etc. It maps all of these features to a standard pin footprint, such as the Pro Micro pinout.
To bring this brainless [shield](#what-is-a-shield) to life, you attach any MCU [board](#what-is-a-board) matching the footprint. For instance, the *nice!nano* is *pin-compatible* with the *Arduino Pro Micro*, so you can substitute either [board](#what-is-a-board) onto the [shield](#what-is-a-shield). But each [board](#what-is-a-board) comes with its own features (MCU, flash, BLE, etc.) which must also be handled.

### Connectivity Issues ### ### Connectivity Issues
Some users may experience a poor connection between the keyboard and the host. This might be due to poor quality BLE hardware, a metal enclosure on the keyboard or host, or the distance between them. Increasing the transmit power of the keyboard's BLE radio may reduce the severity of this problem. To do this, set the `CONFIG_BT_CTLR_TX_PWR_PLUS_8` configuration value in the `.conf` file of your user config directory as such: Some users may experience a poor connection between the keyboard and the host.

For the `nRF52840`, the value `PLUS_8` can be set to any multiple of four between `MINUS_20` and `PLUS_8`. The default value for this config is `0`, but if you are having connection issues it is recommended to set it to `PLUS_8` because the power consumption difference is negligible.
