Pimoroni Automation HAT

Take control of and monitor your world with our ultimate jack-of-all-trades Raspberry Pi HAT! We've pulled together a great set of features into this home monitoring and automation controller. With relays, 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.

Better still each channel has an indicator LEDs which means at a glance you can see what's happening with your setup. Even the analog channels have dimming LEDs that allow you to see the value they are currently sensing - swish!

Ideal for smart home and automation projects, giving your greenhouse intelligent sprinklers, or scheduling your fish feeding!

Features

* 3 x 24V @ 2A relays (NC and NO terminals) * 3 x 12-bit ADC @ 0-24V (±2% accuracy) * 3 x 24V tolerant buffered inputs * 3 x 24V tolerant sinking outputs * 15 x channel indicator LEDs * 1 x 12-bit ADC @ 0-3.3V * 3.5mm screw terminals * Power, Comms, and Warn! LED indicators * SPI, TX (#14), RX (#15), #25 pins broken out * Automation HAT pinout * Compatible with Raspberry Pi 3B+, 3, 2, B+, A+, Zero, and Zero W * Python library * Schematic * Comes fully assembled (broken out pins require soldering)

Notes

* We recommend you use a set of brass M2.5 standoffs with Automation HAT to avoid pins contacting the HDMI port if the HAT is pushed down * Loads for the buffered outputs should be switched on the ground side, i.e. 12/24V (from supply) -> load -> output terminal -> ground (from supply) * The relays can tolerate up to 2A each and should be switched on the high side * The 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. * The accuracy of the ADC is ±2%. * Do not use to switch mains voltages!
