Build HAT Projects<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>","description_markdown":"The Raspberry Pi Build HAT is an add-on board that connects to the 40-pin GPIO header of your Raspberry Pi, which was designed in collaboration with LEGO\u00ae Education to make it easy to control LEGO\u00ae Technic\u2122 motors and sensors with Raspberry Pi computers.\r\n\r\nIt provides four connectors for LEGO\u00ae Technic\u2122 motors and sensors from the SPIKE\u2122 Portfolio. The available sensors include a distance sensor, a color sensor, and a versatile force sensor. The angular motors come in a range of sizes and include integrated encoders that can be queried to find their position.\r\n\r\nThe Build HAT fits all Raspberry Pi computers with a 40-pin GPIO header, including \u2014 with the addition of a ribbon cable or other extension device \u2014 Raspberry Pi 400. Connected LEGO\u00ae Technic\u2122 devices can easily be controlled in Python, alongside standard Raspberry Pi accessories such as a camera module.\r\n\r\nThe Raspberry Pi Build HAT power supply, available separately, is designed to power both the Build HAT and Raspberry Pi computer along with all connected LEGO\u00ae Technic\u2122 devices.\r\n\r\nThe Build HAT is the second Raspberry Pi product, after Raspberry Pi Pico, to be powered by the Raspberry Pi RP2040 microcontroller. It fits all Raspberry Pi boards with the 40 pin I\/O header (though the Pi 400 needs a ribbon cable or our [Qwiic pHAT Extension](https:\/\/www.sparkfun.com\/products\/17512)).\r\n\r\nImportant:<\/b> The Raspberry Pi Build HAT is available for pre-order. Orders will be fulfilled in the order they are received. If you are ordering this product alongside \"Live\/in-stock\" products and want to receive these products ASAP, be sure to designate your order for split shipments in checkout. Due to global supply chain shortages, we cannot guarantee dates for when we will receive stock of this product. <\/div>\n\n**Features:**\n\n* Controls up to four LEGO\u00ae Technic\u2122 motors and sensors included in the SPIKE\u2122 Portfolio\r\n* Easy-to-use Python library to control your LEGO\u00ae Technic\u2122 devices\r\n* Fits onto any Raspberry Pi computer with a 40-pin GPIO header\r\n* On board RP2040 microcontroller manages low-level control of LEGO\u00ae Technic\u2122 devices\r\n* External 8V PSU available separately to power both Build HAT and Raspberry Pi\n\n**Documents:**\n\n* [Product Brief](https:\/\/datasheets.raspberrypi.com\/build-hat\/raspberry-pi-build-hat-product-brief.pdf)\r\n* [Getting Started Guide](https:\/\/www.raspberrypi.com\/documentation\/accessories\/build-hat.html)\r\n* [Python Library](https:\/\/buildhat.readthedocs.io\/en\/latest\/buildhat\/index.html)\r\n* [Build HAT Projects](https:\/\/projects.raspberrypi.org\/en\/pathways\/lego-intro)\n\n","date_published":"2021-10-19 01:04:21.12534-06","price":25,"qty_price":{"1":25},"in_stock":true,"backorder_allowed":true,"is_rohs_compliant":true,"is_export_controlled":false,"is_oshw":false,"in_eagle_library":false,"in_fritzing_library":false,"sparkfun_original":false,"hstariff":"8537.10.91.20","pack_length":"75mm","pack_width":"75mm","pack_height":"25mm","packed_weight":"0.9400lbs","ascii_art":"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n ...\n ..,;;,. .;,.\n .';;;;',:;,,,;:;;:;,.\n ..,;::;;:;;;;,,,,,,::;;;,;'.\n .',;:;::::;,,,,,,,;;;;;;;;;,,,,;'.\n ..,;:;::;::;;,'...'',;;;;;;,'.',;,,;;;;'.\n .';:::;;::;;,,;;,,...'..,;;;,'..',,;;;;;;;;;;'.\n .,;::;:c:::;;;;;;;;;;,'.''';,'..,.,,'',,;;;;;,,,.','.\n ..,:::::;c:;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;'...',,'''.'',,;;;;;'''',,,',.\n .';;::::c::;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;,,'..'',,''',',,,;;;;;;:;;;;;,'..',lc'\n ..,;c:::c:c:;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;,..',,,,',''',,;;;;;;;;;;;;;;:;;,;lddxkxl'\n .';:;c:::c;;,''';;;;;;;;;;;;:;:;;;;;;;;,''',;;;;;;;;;;;;::::::;,''ol:clooxkxc.
