DESCRIPTION

SIXTEEN LOW SIGNAL ANALOG INPUTS for RASPBERRY Pi
Raspberry Pi has no analog signal processing capability. This HAT can read eight differential or sixteen single-ended analog signals with 24 bit precission and up to 64kBPS data rate. Up to eight cards can be stacked on top of one Raspberry Pi. When multiple cards are stacked, the master card can send the clock and sync signal to all slave cards, allowing syncronized data acquisition over all the channels. 
The card communicates with Raspberry Pi using only the I2C port, leaving all the other 24 GPIO pins available for your use. It has also an RS-485 port, a power LED and a push button that can be used to shut down the Raspberry Pi. Pluggable connectors make the 16-INPUTS card easy to use when multiple cards are stacked up. A hardware watchdog can reset the Raspberry Pi by cycling the power in case of software lock-up

COMPATIBILITY
The Sixteen 24-Bit Analog Inputs card is compatible with all Raspberry Pi versions from Zero to 5. 

POWER REQUIREMENTS
The Sixteen 24-Bit Analog Inputs card needs 5V to operate and can be powered from its own 2 pin pluggable connector. The card draws 50mA.  If power is applied to the 2 pin pluggable connector, no other power supply is needed for the Raspberry Pi.

LED INDICATORS
A power LED shows when power is applied to the board. Eight LEDs shows the status of groups of 8 inputs. Inputs 1-8 or 9-16 can be selected from software.

DIP SWITCH CONFIGURATION

A six position DIP switch is used to select the source of the RS485 port and the position of the card in the stack, if multiple cards are used. The left-most position is the RS485 terminator. Set this switch ON if the card is the last one on the RS485 chain. The next two positions select the source of the RS485 port. Set the switches ON to drive the RS485 from the Raspberry Pi, or OFF to drive the port from the local processor.

RESET PUSHBUTTON
Shutting down the Raspberry Pi by turning off the power can result in SD Card failure. To prevent this, a shutdown command needs to be used before power cut-off. But this requires a monitor, keyboard and mouse connected to the Pi. 
A momentary on push button installed at the edge of the board provides a convenient way to shut down the Raspberry Pi. The button is routed to pin 37 (GPIO 26). You need to write a script which monitors this pin, and if pressed for more than a desired time, issues the shut-down command.
