New Kickstarter Launched – GPIO Extender and Quad Power Management I2Cphoto-original

SwitchDoc Labs is pleased to announce that we have started our third kickstarter campaign.  Our first two campaigns, the SunAir Solar Power Controller and Three Really Useful Breakout Boards were successfully completed in 11 and 16 days and were overfunded!

Our new kickstarter is “Really, Really Useful Breakout Boards – Arduino/Raspberry Pi” and is located here:

www.kickstarter.com/projects/sunair/really-really-useful-breakout-boards-arduino-raspb

The Kickstarter contains two boards that are useful in Raspberry Pi and Arduino projects for robots, power supplies, solar powered systems and more.  These boards are:

Board 1: I2C 8 GPIO Extender – Adds 8 GPIO pins to your device through an inexpensive I2C Breakout Board

features:

  • I2C controlled
  • 8 GPIO pins
  • All pins can interrupt the computer
  • Two bank power supply allows two banks of 4 GPIO pins to have 5V or 3.3V
  • Can program GPIO pins to make up to 3 pin logic gates (PLD)
  • Software drivers for Arduino and Raspberry Pi Included!
 

Board 2:  Quad Power Management I2C Board – Switch on and off batteries, power supplies and solar panels

features:

  • I2C controlled
  • 4 Independent Solid State Relays each with LEDs
  • Each is able to switch 20V and 2.3A
  • 4 Additional GPIOs
  • Software drivers for Arduino and Raspberry Pi Included!
