The SparkFun Qwiic Quad Relay lets you switch four high-power devices from an Arduino or other low-power microcontroller over I²C. Each of the four relays is rated for up to 5 A at 250 VAC or 30 VDC, with individually colour-coded LEDs and screw terminals for easy identification and connection.

An onboard ATtiny84 handles I²C commands for toggling the relays. The I²C address is software-configurable, allowing you to daisy-chain over 100 boards. Power the board via the barrel jack (7–15 V, or 5 V with the underside jumper), and use the Qwiic connectors or broken-out I²C header for communication — no soldering required.
