DAQCplate
Add input/output options to Raspberry Pi
Pi-Plates are a family of stackable and interchangeable add-on circuit boards that allow Raspberry Pi to interact with the outside world. The DAQCplate (Data Acquisition and Controller) from Pi-Plates adds a rich set of input/output options to Raspberry Pi. It includes seven powerful digital outputs for driving external devices such as relays and high-current LEDs, as well as eight analog-to-digital inputs for measuring temperature, voltage, humidity and more. Additionally, there are eight digital inputs, two analog outputs and seven general-purpose indicator LEDs.
