How to get additional 5V and GND pin from Arduino

This article shows with video and code help you to get additional 5V pin and GND (ground) pin from your Arduino. Most Arduino boards have only one or two 5V pin. Your applications might need extra 5V pin. Watch the video to see how you can have additional pin using code or using breadboard.

#define VCC2  5 // define pin 5 or any other digial pin here as VCC2
#define GND2  2 // define pin 2 or any other digital pin as Ground 2

void setup() {
  // Robojax.com getting extra 5V pin from Arduino 20181202
  
  pinMode(VCC2,OUTPUT);//define a digital pin as output
  digitalWrite(VCC2, HIGH);// set the above pin as HIGH so it acts as 5V

  pinMode(GND2,OUTPUT);//define a digital pin as output
  digitalWrite(GND2, LOW);// set the above pin as LOW so it acts as Ground  

}

void loop() {
    // Robojax.com getting extra 5V pin from Arduino 20181202
  // put your project code here
