Touch pHAT for Raspberry Pi Zero

The Touch pHAT is a compact add-on board for your Raspberry Pi, featuring six capacitive touch buttons, each with a bright white LED. It is designed to bring touch control to a wide range of projects, from robotics and lighting to music creation and simple games. The board is compatible with Raspberry Pi 3/ 2/ B+/ A+/ Zero and Zero W, making it a versatile choice for makers and hobbyists.

At its core is the CAP1166 capacitive touch and LED driver chip, which provides reliable and responsive touch sensing. The LEDs are under-mounted, giving the board a smooth top surface that is both practical and aesthetically pleasing. The touch pads can be labelled with a dry wipe pen, allowing you to customise the function of each button without any permanent marking.

Software support is provided through a Python library, making it easy for beginners and experienced programmers alike to integrate touch input into their projects. Whether you are building a drum machine, a control panel for a robot, or an interactive game, the Touch pHAT offers a simple and effective solution.

Please note that the female header requires soldering to attach to your Raspberry Pi. The kit includes the Touch pHAT board and a female header, so you have everything you need to get started.
