Overview
Smart Fan and Power Expansion Board
Features
1. Width voltage input: 6V~14V' With power switch
2. Output: DC 5V 4A with two channel outputs:
OUT1 for external device such as servo, motor, robots, mechanical arm, intelligent card etc. (output interface: HT3.96); Max current is 2A, and can be programming control to on/off; please refer to SAMPLE CODE 1; OUT2 (GPIO output for raspberry pi);Max current is up to 4A if the OUT1 be closed; CAN'T be programming control, it will be output to raspberry pi directly if the switch be turned on;
3. Built-in temperature sensor, with active cooling fan, you can control flexibly the ON/OFF of mini fan via I2C command and GPIO programming. please refer to SAMPLE CODE 2;
4. Support hardware pwm to control fan, please refer to SAMPLE CODE 3;
Temperature range and accuracy
- -25 ℃ ~ + 100 ℃ when the ± 2 ℃
- -55 ℃ ~ +125 ℃ when the ± 3 ℃
5. Cooling Fan can be replaced, please refer to FAN SPECIFICATIONS;
6. Standard HAT size;
Packing List
- 1 x Board;
- 1 x Mini fan (with install screws)
SAMPLE CODE 1
