Shield

Confirm the data interface matches your host board.

Module pins: 3x16 character LCD (SPI/I2C driven), RGB backlight (6 zones), 6 capacitive touch buttons, Broken out: Power (5V/3V3/GND), I2C, SPI, UART, PWM, 5 GPIO, Used GPIO: approx 7 pins (incl. SPI MOSI/CS, LCD RS=GPIO25, etc.). Schematik maps them to your board in the app.

Add-ons

269 other options

About 270 add-ons across Pi HATs, Arduino shields, and FeatherWings. The same function — motor control, PoE, display — usually ships once per host connector family. Get the host board right first.
