The RasPiO Analog Zero offers a compact, inexpensive, easy way to add eight analog channels to your Raspberry Pi.
With RasPiO Analog Zero you can…
- read up to 8 analog inputs at once
- make a weather station
- make a digital thermometer
- make a voltmeter
- use potentiometer dials for control and display
- read analog sensors or voltages
- make your own embedded device with minimal footprint
Easy To Code With GPIO Zero
Ben Nuttall and Dave Jones have done a tremendous job with GPIO Zero, making it easy to do useful things in very few lines of code.
Nothing To Install
GPIO Zero is now a part of the standard Raspbian distribution, so you won’t even have to install any software to get RasPiO Analog Zero working. This board also works with other GPIO libraries e.g. RPi.GPIO

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- GPIO
- General-purpose input/output pins are microcontroller pins you can set in software to read signals, switch devices on and off, or connect to peripherals. The number of GPIO pins matters because it limits how many buttons, LEDs, sensors, and other parts you can wire directly to the board.
- potentiometer
- A variable resistor usually turned with a knob or shaft to create an adjustable electrical signal. It is often used for inputs such as volume, brightness or position, so it helps beginners learn how a microcontroller reads changing values.
