## Description

The Adafruit PCF8591 Quad 8-bit ADC + 8-bit DAC combines four analogue input channels and one analogue output channel in a single I2C breakout. Measure voltages from potentiometers, sensors, or other analogue sources — and generate analogue output signals — all over a simple two-wire connection. With 8-bit resolution, the PCF8591 is ideal for basic analogue measurement and signal generation tasks where high precision isn't critical. Three I2C address jumpers let you chain up to 8 breakouts on a single bus for 32 ADC channels and 8 DAC channels. STEMMA QT connectors make wiring solderless and simple. Key Features 4× 8-bit ADC Channels – Measure up to four analogue voltages simultaneously 1× 8-bit DAC Channel – Generate analogue output voltages I2C Interface – Simple two-wire connection, works with any I2C-capable board 3 Address Jumpers – Up to 8 breakouts on one bus (32 ADC + 8 DAC channels) STEMMA QT / Qwiic – Solderless STEMMA QT connectors for easy daisy-chaining Breadboard Friendly – Standard 0.1″ header pinout with SO16 chip mounted on breakout PCB Ideal For Adding analogue inputs to boards without ADC (e.g. Raspberry Pi) Reading potentiometers, light sensors, or other analogue sensors over I2C Generating analogue control voltages for circuits or peripherals Multi-board setups needing many analogue channels on a budget Resources PCF8591 Learn Guide Arduino PCF8591 Library CircuitPython/Python PCF8591 Library
