## Overview

The PiFace Digital 2 is a compact I/O expansion board designed for Raspberry Pi A, A+, B, and B+ models. It features 2 high-current relays (10A), 8 digital inputs, 8 open collector outputs, 4 tactile switches, and 8 onboard LEDs for real-time status indication. Programmable via Python, C, and Scratch, it enables seamless control of sensors, motors, lights, and other devices, making it ideal for prototyping and real-world automation projects.

## Description

Pi-Face Digital 2 plugs directly onto the top of your Raspberry Pi B+, and allows you to sense and control the real world. Detect switch states, for example from a door sensor, a pressure pad or any number of other switch types. Then you can write your own software for Raspberry Pi B+ that determines how to respond to that switch state. You can drive outputs to power motors, actuators, LEDs or anything you can imagine. Allows users to control lights, motors etc and monitor digital inputs, switches, etc. Four switches and four LEDs on board for rapid prototyping Two onboard relays (10A) for easy control Buffered to protect the Raspberry Pi B+ Credit card size, stacks on top of Raspberry Pi B+ Easy to connect with screw terminals Easy to program with C and Python libraries Outputs & Indicators – 2 x relays for switching external loads on and off, 8 x open collector outputs, 8 x LEDs onboard Inputs & Switches – 4 x momentary click switches, 8 x digital inputs Software and API- Instant clickable control and graphical feedback, Consistent interface for C, Python and Scratch computer languages

Review: Great little board but support and documentation a little lacking. - Great little expansion board, only down side is the documentation is lacking in certain areas and the Emulator package detailed in the documentation does not seem to be available anymore. Had to do a lot of digging on the web to get to where I needed to be but is now working as expected.
Review: Still it all works but documentation is poor so dropped a star - Well made but not got round to using it properly yet. Still it all works but documentation is poor so dropped a star.
