Pimoroni Automation pHAT

Automation HAT's little bro'. The most compact way to take control of and monitor your world!We've pulled together a great set of features into this home monitoring and automation controller. With a relay, analog channels, powered outputs, and buffered inputs (all 24V tolerant) you can now hook up a plethora of goodies to your Raspberry Pi all at once.Ideal for smart home and automation projects, giving your greenhouse intelligent sprinklers, or scheduling your fish feeding!Features1 x 24V @ 2A relay (NC and NO terminals)3 x 12-bit ADC @ 0-24V (ADS1015)3 x 24V tolerant buffered inputs3 x 24V tolerant sinking outputs3.5mm screw terminalsSPI pins broken outAutomation pHAT pinoutCompatible with Raspberry Pi 3, 2, B+, A+, Zero, and Zero WPython libraryFemale header and broken out pins require solderingSoftwareAs ever, we've made a super-simple to use Python library to take advantage of Automation pHAT's multitudinous functions, with examples to get you started.In fact, Automation pHAT uses the same library as Automation HAT, and it uses the presence (or absence) of the SN3218 LED driver chip to autodetct which board (HAT or pHAT) is being used. Nifty!Our input, output and relay examples show you how to read the analog and digital inputs, switch the outputs on and off, and control the relay.Our software does not support Raspbian Wheezy.NotesLoads for the buffered outputs should be switched on the ground side, i.e. 12/24V (from supply) -> load -> output terminal -> ground (from supply)The relay can tolerate up to 2A each and should be switched on the high sideThe sinking outputs can sink a maximum 500mA total across the 3 outputs, so if you use a single channel you can sink the whole 500mA across it.Do not use to switch mains voltages!
