## 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. Connects to the Raspberry Pi via the 40-pin GPIO header and is controlled through a Python library with ready-to-use examples. Key Features 3× 24 V / 2 A Relays – NC and NO terminals for switching loads 3× 12-Bit ADC Channels – 0–24 V input range (±2% accuracy) 1× 12-Bit ADC Channel – 0–3.3 V input range 3× Buffered Inputs – 24 V tolerant digital inputs 3× Sinking Outputs – 24 V tolerant (500 mA total across all three) 15× Channel LEDs – Visual status indicators (analogue channels dim proportionally) 3.5 mm Screw Terminals – Secure, solderless connections Breakout Pins – SPI, TX (#14), RX (#15), #25 Specifications Relays: 3× SPDT, 24 V @ 2 A max (high-side switching) ADC: 3× 0–24 V + 1× 0–3.3 V (12-bit, ±2%) Inputs: 3× 24 V tolerant buffered Outputs: 3× 24 V tolerant sinking (500 mA total) Terminals: 3.5 mm screw Compatibility: Raspberry Pi 3B+, 3, 2, B+, A+, Zero, Zero W Ideal For Home automation and smart monitoring Greenhouse and irrigation control Industrial sensor monitoring (24 V systems) Relay-based scheduling and switching Warning: Do not use to switch mains voltages. Note: 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.
