{"title":"Automation HAT","handle":"automation-hat","url":"/products/automation-hat","description":"The Pimoroni Automation HAT is a versatile home automation and monitoring controller for the Raspberry Pi. It provides relays, analogue inputs, buffered digital inputs, and powered outputs — all 24 V tolerant — with indicator LEDs on every channel for at-a-glance status monitoring.\n\nConnects to the Raspberry Pi via the 40-pin GPIO header and is controlled through a Python library with ready-to-use examples.\n\nKey Features\n\n\n3× 24 V / 2 A Relays – NC and NO terminals for switching loads\n\n3× 12-Bit ADC Channels – 0–24 V input range (±2% accuracy)\n\n1× 12-Bit ADC Channel – 0–3.3 V input range\n\n3× Buffered Inputs – 24 V tolerant digital inputs\n\n3× Sinking Outputs – 24 V tolerant (500 mA total across all three)\n\n15× Channel LEDs – Visual status indicators (analogue channels dim proportionally)\n\n3.5 mm Screw Terminals – Secure, solderless connections\n\nBreakout Pins – SPI, TX (#14), RX (#15), #25\n\n\nSpecifications\n\n\nRelays: 3× SPDT, 24 V @ 2 A max (high-side switching)\n\nADC: 3× 0–24 V + 1× 0–3.3 V (12-bit, ±2%)\n\nInputs: 3× 24 V tolerant buffered\n\nOutputs: 3× 24 V tolerant sinking (500 mA total)\n\nTerminals: 3.5 mm screw\n\nCompatibility: Raspberry Pi 3B+, 3, 2, B+, A+, Zero, Zero W\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nHome automation and smart monitoring\nGreenhouse and irrigation control\nIndustrial sensor monitoring (24 V systems)\nRelay-based scheduling and switching\n\n\n\nWarning: Do not use to switch mains voltages.\n\n\n\nNote: Buffered outputs are switched on the ground side (supply → load → output terminal → ground). M2.5 standoffs are recommended to prevent contact with the HDMI port.\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× Automation HAT (fully assembled; breakout pins require soldering)\n\n\nResources\n\nAutomation HAT Pinout\nPython Library (GitHub)\n","vendor":"Little Bird","product_type":"physical","in_stock":false,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":14506,"title":"Default Title","sku":"PR-PIM213","price":57.19,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":false,"available_quantity":0,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
