Automation HAT
Description
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!
Software
As ever, we’ve made a super-simple to use Python library to take advantage of Automation HAT’s multitudinous functions, with examples to get you started. 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 relays.
Notes
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 relay 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!
