Inputs
GPIO numbering follows the BCM numbering
The board provides four inputs (GPIOs 22, 23, 24, and 27), each interfaced through H11L1M opto-isolators, which feature Schmitt Trigger outputs. The inputs require 2mA drive, which should be set via appropriate value of RN1. Inputs can be up to 30V. Inputs are initialised by setting GPIOs 22, 23, 24 and 27 to input mode with pull-up. RN2 provides in-line protection to the GPIO pins.
| RN1 Value | Suggested Voltage Range | Opto Switch-On Voltage (typical) | Opto Switch-Off Voltage (typical) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10k | 24 - 30V | 11.3V | 8.9V |
| 6K8 | 14 - 24V | 8.1V | 6.3V |
| 3K3 | 7 - 14V | 4.5V | 3.5V |
| 1K5 | 5 - 7V | 2.6V | 2.2V |
| 1K | <5V | 2.1V | 1.8V |
RN1 is Bourns 4608X-102 type (isolated, 8-pin 4-element)
Note that this board does not provide transient spike protection - inputs must not exceed 30V. When using pre-production samples, do not set the input channels to output mode with this board connected, as damage to the Raspberry Pi may occur.
Outputs
GPIO numbering follows the BCM numbering
The board outputs are driven by a ULN2803A Darlington Transistor Array, which is able to drive inductive loads directly and suppress the kick-back voltage via the internal free wheeling diodes (requires connection of COM terminal to external supply). Initialisation the outputs is achieved by setting GPIOs 5, 6, 12, 13, 16, 19. 20, 21, 26 to output mode.
The eight open-collector outputs are provided via screw terminals, along with GND and COM connections. Should a pull-up be required, RN3 and can added and configured via JP1 to be:
- 1-2: 3V3
- 2-3: 5V
- Open: when COM is connected.
JP1 must be open if external supply is connected to COM terminal - Raspberry Pi will be damaged if this is not observed. When JP1 is not open, pull-up current will be sourced from the Raspberry Pi 5V or 3V3 rails, a high value or RN3 should therefore b0e used (typically 10K).
Each output can sink 200mA; however total sink current should not exceed 600mA. ULN2803A power dissipation rules should also be observed (see ULN2803a Datasheet).
When driving inductive loads, external supply should be connected to COM terminal to enable internal free wheeling diodes to suppress kick-back voltage. Operating voltage should also be de-rated to ensure the maximum voltage does not exceed 30V.
Maxim 1-wire Bus
The board 1-wire bus IO is directly connected to GPIO 4, along with a 4K7 pull-up. Connected temperature sensor(s) can be automatically detected by Linux with appropriate kernel modules installed. When devices are cabled, Cat5e cable is recommended.
Raspbian Kernel Configuration
For 3.18 kernel and newer, a kernel option must be added to /boot/config.txt due to change introduced with the Device Tree system (see this RaspberyPi Forum Post). Add this line to the end of the file, and reboot:
dtoverlay=w1-gpio
Once restarted, kernel modules w1-gpio and w1-therm need to be installed:
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo modprobe w1-gpio
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo modprobe w1-therm
This can be made persistent by adding these module names to /etc/modules. Sensor data is then available via /sys/bus/w1:
pi@raspberrypi /sys/bus/w1 $ find .
.

For Dallas 18B20 temperature sensors, 28-000006991886 represents the serial-number of the device (also shown in name), and the current reading is available in w1_slave (28812 in this example is 28.812°C):
pi@raspberrypi /sys/bus/w1/devices/28-000006991886 $ cat name

pi@raspberrypi /sys/bus/w1/devices/28-000006991886 $ cat w1_slave
