Product description: Automation HAT Mini - frontend for Raspberry Pi - Pimoroni PIM487
Automation HAT Mini is an overlay designed forRaspberry Piminicomputers. The small size of the overlay gives great possibilities inautomation. It features a24 V / 2 A relay,0.96" OLEDdisplay, 0 V to 24 V ADCADS1015analog to digital converter with 3 12-bit channels, three 24 V buffer inputs, three 24 V Sink outputs. The input/output connectors are ona 3.5 mm screw terminal. The overlay is compatible with any 40-pin version of Raspberry Pi.
The manufacturer has prepared aPython libraryanduser guidefor the Automation HAT Mini and Raspberry Pi.

Automation with Automation HAT Mini
All inputs, outputs, and relay on the Automation HAT Mini tolerate24 V; many low-voltage systems in home appliances operate at 12 V or 24 V. Buffer inputs can be used to detect on/off status of appliances or get more detailed with analog inputs that measure input voltage with12-bitaccuracy. The outputs can receive a maximum of500 mAon three channels. For higher current loads, a relay can be used that can tolerate up to 2 A at 24 V. On the bottom of the board there is an additional pinout where you can connect various types ofI2Csensors.Automation HATis also available in our offer.
