Working with Raspberry Pi is always fun, but can often present new challenges when it comes time to expand the functionality and capabilities of a project. In such times, however, it’s always great to find modules like this Serial Expansion HAT for Raspberry Pi, which features an I2C interface with a 2-channel UART, as well as 8 programmable GPIO pins – to let you expand your project in a multitude of different ways.

In terms of functionality, the Raspberry Pi Expander HAT is designed to add more slots for all of the things that you really want to add to your project – but just don’t have the space for. And in addition to offering 8 programmable GPIO pins that you can do almost anything you want to with, this HAT also doubles the UART capabilities with a 2-channel UART via the I2C interface, which is fantastic when compared to the standard single channel UART typically featured on Raspberry Pi Boards.

And finally, just in case you weren’t entirely satisfied with the expansion capabilities that it already offers, these Modular HATs can also be stacked up to 16 times, with each HAT featuring its own I2C address, resulting in up to 32 channels of UART and a ridiculous 128 GPIO pins – more than you could ever need for a single Raspberry Pi project.
