MCC 152 Voltage Output and DIO DAQ HAT for Raspberry Pi Features Two 12-bit simultaneous voltage outputs 5 mA output drive, sourcing 0.8 V/s slew rate Eight bidirectional digital bits 5V / 3.3V operation CMOS input thresholds Programmable input polarity Screw terminal connections Stack up to eight MCC HATs The MCC 152 is a 12-bit analog voltage output and digital input/output DAQ HAT. The onto a single Raspberry Pi MCC 152 is shown here connected to a Raspberry Pi (not included). Software Overview MCC DAQ HAT Library available on GitHub The MCC 152 is a voltage output and digital input/output HAT (Hardware Attached on Top) designed for use with Raspberry Pi, the most popular single-board com- Supported Operating Systems puter on the market today. Linux /Raspbian A HAT is an add-on board with a 40W GPIO (general purpose input/output) con- nector that conforms to the Raspberry Pi HAT specification. Programming API The MCC 152 HAT provides two analog outputs and eight digital I/O bits. Up to C, C++, Python eight MCC HATs can be stacked onto one Raspberry Pi. With CMOS input thresh- olds, selectable voltage operation, and 5 V tolerance for the digital inputs, the digital channels support both 3.3 V and 5 V logic types.

Each example includes a description and a list of the functions demonstrated in the program. An example is shown here. Users can verify MCC 152 functionality out-of-the-box by run- ning the MCC 152 App from the MCC DAQ HAT Manager utility program. This utility requires the Raspbian desktop interface, and is accessible from the Applications menu.
