With the IO-16 Bricklet 2.0, bricks can be extended by external digital inputs and outputs (I/OS).
The Bricklet has 2x 8 I/O channels that can be configured independantly as inputs or outputs. Each input can also be configured as a pull-up or interrupt source. The I/O voltage can be switched manually between 3.3V and 5V*. The I/O channels are guided to the outside via screw terminals with additional GND connections. An additional screw clamp leads the selected voltage to the outside.
Switches, buttons and LEDs can be connected in typical applications.
The Bricklet has no galvanic separation to the Tinkerforge system. This means that there is a direct electrical connection between the terminals of the Bricklet and the rest of the system. If this leads to unwanted connections, ground loops or short-circuits in the respective application, the use together with an insulator Bricklet is advisable.
The IO-16 Bricklet 2.0 has a 7-pin Bricklet plug and is connected with a 7p-10p Bricklet cable with a brick.
I/O Channels: 16
Power consumption: 36mW (7.2mA at 5V)
I/O Voltage: Switchable between 3.3V and 5V*
Maximum output current (high): 10mA (per channel)
Maximum output current (low): 25mA (per channel) with 160mA absolute maximum (per port)
Maximum API calls**: set port (1kHz), get port (
* the maximum voltage depends on the supply voltage of the brick. If this is supplied via USB, it may be that 5V cannot be reached. The reason for this voltage drop of 0.5V is protective diodes on the bricks. If 5V output voltage is required, the stack can be extended with an additional power supply, such as the Step-Down Power Supply.
