A meteorologically minded Raspberry Pi HAT designed to make hooking up weather sensors a breeze (or a squall, or a gale). Weather HAT is an all-in-one solution for hooking up climate and environmental sensors to a Raspberry Pi. It has a bright 1.54' LCD screen and four buttons for inputs. The onboard sensors can measure temperature, humidity, pressure and light. The sturdy RJ11 connectors will let you easily attach wind and rain sensors. It will work with any Raspberry Pi with a 40-pin header. You could install it outside in a suitable weatherproof enclosure and connect to it wirelessly – logging the data locally or piping it into Weather Underground, a MQTT broker or a cloud service like Adafruit IO. Alternatively, you could house your weather Pi inside and run wires to your weather sensors outside - making use of the nice screen to display readouts. Features 1.54' IPS LCD screen (240 x 240) Four user-controllable switches BME280 temperature, pressure, humidity sensor (datasheet) LTR-559 light and proximity sensor (datasheet) Nuvoton MS51 microcontroller with inbuilt 12-bit ADC (datasheet) RJ11 connectors for connecting wind and rain sensors (optional) HAT-format board Fully-assembled Compatible with all 40-pin header Raspberry Pi models Downloads Python library Schematic Included Weather HAT 2 x 10 mm standoffs

The Explorer Board is the easy and efficient way to develop your Raspberry Pi Pico projects. Since the most important components are already integrated, you save time and effort on wiring. The Explorer Board has a wide range of interface connectors so you can connect your projects to a variety of modules and devices. With the integrated breadboard, you can quickly build and realize your own projects. Thanks to the possibility to connect or disconnect all modules individually, you can use your pins, which are additionally led separately to the outside, for other projects or experiment on the integrated breadboard at any time. Features Fast and efficient experimenting with the Raspberry Pi Pico Raspberry Pi Pico can be plugged in directly All modules can be switched on and off individually Additional integrated breadboard for own development Specifications Integrated modules: 4 RGB LEDs, buzzer, relay, 1.8“ TFT display, DHT11 temperature sensor, 4 buttons, breadboard Interfaces: 4x servo motor, SPI, I²C, UART, 5x crocodile clip connector Power supply: 5 V USB-C Dimensions: 219 x 110 x 27 mm Downloads Manual Examples and libraries

Pico Breakout Garden Base sits underneath your Pico and lets you connect up to six of our extensive selection of Pimoroni breakouts to it. Whether it's environmental sensors so you can keep track of the temperature and humidity in your office, a whole host of little screens for important notifications and readouts, and, of course, LEDs. Scroll down for a list of breakouts that are currently compatible with our C++/MicroPython libraries!As well as a labelled landing area for your Pico, there's also a full set of broken out Pico connections, in case you need to attach even more sensors, wires, and circuitry. We've thrown in some rubber feet to keep the base nice and stable and to stop it from scratching your desk, or there are M2.5 mounting holes at the corners so that you can bolt it onto a solid surface if you prefer.The six sturdy black slots are edge connectors that connect the breakouts to the pins on your Pico. There's two slots for SPI breakouts, and four slots for I²C breakouts. Because I²C is a bus, you can use multiple I²C devices at the same time, providing they don't have the same I²C address (we've made sure that all of our breakouts have different addresses, and we print them on the back of the breakouts so they're easy to find).As well as being a handy way to add functionality to your Pico, Breakout Garden is also very useful for prototyping projects without the need for complicated wiring, soldering, or breadboards, and you can grow or change up your setup at any time.Features Six sturdy edge-connector slots for breakouts 4x I²C slots (5 pins) 2x SPI slot (7 pins) Landing area with female headers for Raspberry Pi Pico 0.1” pitch, 5 or 7 pin connectors Broken-out pins Reverse polarity protection (built into breakouts) 99% assembled – just need to stick on the feet!

Thanks to its six sturdy slots, Breakout Garden enables the users to simply plug and play with various tiny breakout board.Just insert one or more boards into the slots in the Breakout Garden HAT and you’re ready to go. The mini breakouts feel secure enough in the edge-connector slots and are very unlikely to fall out.There are a number of useful pins along the top of Breakout Garden, which lets you connect other devices and integrate them into your project.You shouldn't be worried if you insert a board the wrong way thanks to provided reverse polarity protection. It doesn't matter which slot you use for each breakout either, because the I²C address of the breakout will be recognised by the software and it'll detect them correctly in case you move them around.Features Six sturdy edge-connector slots for Pimoroni breakouts 0.1” pitch, 5 pin connectors Broken-out pins (1 × 10 strip of male header included) Standoffs (M2.5, 10 mm height) included to hold your Breakout Garden securely Reverse polarity protection (built into breakouts) HAT format board Compatible with Raspberry Pi 3 B+, 3, 2, B+, A+, Zero, and Zero W It's suggested using the included standoffs to attache Breakout Garden to your Raspberry Pi.SoftwareBreakout Garden doesn't require any software of its own, but each breakout you use will need a Python library. On the Breakout Garden GitHub page you'll find an automatic installer, which will install the appropriate software for a given breakout. There are also some examples that show you what else you can do with Breakout Garden.
