PIMORONI Pirate Audio Speaker for Raspberry Pi

The Pirate Audio Speaker HAT by PIMORONI is perfect for making a Lilliputian radio, sound effect player, or even as a teeny-weeny games console! The built-in 1W speaker isn't the loudest but it's great fun for lots of projects. The display and playback buttons let you control your audio or sound effects in a jiffy. Use our Pirate Audio software (more info below) to play local audio files (MP3, FLAC, etc) or stream from services like Spotify. PIMORONI Pirate Audio is a range of all-in-one audio boards for Raspberry Pi, with high-quality digital audio, beautifully-crisp IPS displays for album art, tactile buttons for playback control, and our custom Pirate Audio software and installer to make setting it all up a breeze. Note: The DAC can be configured by adding dtoverlay=hifiberry-dac to the /boot/config.txt file. There is a DAC enable pin—BCM 25— that must be driven high to enable the DAC. You can do this by adding gpio=25=op,dh to the /boot/config.txt file. The buttons are active low and connected to pins BCM 5, 6, 16, and 24. The display uses SPI, and you'll need to enable SPI through the Raspberry Pi configuration menu. If you want to use these boards with a Pibow Coupé case (either for the Zero / Zero W or Pi 4), then you'll need to use a booster header to raise it up a little.
