Description
Rainbow HAT shield for Raspberry Pi is mounted directly on the GPIO connectors, was created in collaboration with Google. It has a set of sensors, pins, displays for exploring the Android Things. On the board are such interfaces like: SPI, I2C, PWM, UART and GPIO. It will be used as a weather station, a clock, a timer, an atmospheric lamp and infinitely many other applications.
Key features
- 7x LED multicolor (APA102)
- 4x alphanumeric 14-segment display (green LEDs)
- 3x capacitive touch button
- Display driver: HT16K33
- Driver of capacitive touch: Atmel QT1070
- LEDs: green, blue and red
- Temperature and pressure sensor: BMP280
- Piezoelectric buzzer
- Pins: for servo, I2C, SPI and UART (they all work with a voltage of 3.3 V)
- Compatible with Raspberry Pi 3, 2, B+, A+, Zero and Zero W
- The software was prepared by the manufacturer and is not working with Raspbian Wheezy
- The set has only Rainbow HAT shield
Notes
- The read temperature depends on the heat generated by the CPU of the Raspberry and the LEDs, calibration may help to read the desired temperature.Forum Raspberry Pi suggests the use of formula: corrected temp. = measured temp. - (CPU temp. - measured temp.)
- For information on how to use a Rainbow HAT with Android Things, visit the official page ofAndroid Things. Installthe latest version of the Android image Thingson your SD card, see instructionshere. You can find drivers and examples published onGitHub.
- Using Raspbian, the manufacturer prepared a library on GitHub. The software is not working with Raspbian Wheezy.
