Description
Product information "RGB potentiometer breakout"
This I2C breakout uses the clever Nuvoton microcontroller to help you easily add a digital linear potentiometer to your project. You can directly control the RGB LED inside the potentiometer - meaning it's great for use as an input device that can also give you a colour-coded visual status (like a thermostat or volume control).
Potentiometers have a limited range of movement and are good for rotary controls that benefit from a fixed start and end point - if you'd rather have a potentiometer that can rotate continuously, we also have an RGB encoder breakout!
You can connect it directly to your Pi's GPIO or via a breadboard with the included headers, but it's also compatible with our nifty solderless breakout garden, making it easy to use several different breakouts at once.
Features
- Nuvoton MS51 microcontroller with built-in 12-bit analogue-to-digital converter(datasheet / technical reference manual)
- Linear potentiometer(datasheet / drawing)
- RGB LED (controllable via PWM)
- I2C interface, with a standard address of 0x0E
- 3V to 5V compatible
- Reverse polarity protection
- Raspberry Pi-compatible pin assignment (pins 1, 3, 5, 7, 9)
- Compatible with all Raspberry Pi models.
- Python library
- RGB potentiometer breakout (pre-assembled)
- 1x5 straight pin header
- 1x5 right angle female header
Software
The RGB potentiometer breakout uses the same Python library as our IO expander breakout - this example shows you how to read out the potentiometer and control the LED.
Notes
- The default I2C address is 0x0E, but it is possible to change this in the software if you want to use multiple RGB potentiometer breakouts or avoid conflicts with other I2C devices. The new address is stored in flash memory so that it is retained even when the power is switched off.
- This board uses a Nuvoton MCU with our own firmware, but if you are brave and hacky you can substitute your own firmware to change the way this board works and have a super cheap and capable microcontroller (although this is not for the faint hearted!)
- Dimensions: approx. 25x22x29mm (LxWxH)

Optimize your Raspberry Pi - with Pimoroni
Pimoni is the expert when it comes to equipping your Raspberry Pi with high-quality add-on modules. The successful company was founded in 2012 in Sheffield, England, and now also has a branch in Essen, Germany. According to the University of Sheffield, Pimoroni is even considered one of the fastest growing manufacturing companies in the UK.
The electronics specialist has the right solution for almost every need around the Raspberry Pi. The product range also includes the Pimoroni Fan Shim, a powerful 30mm CPU fan for the Raspberry Pi, which is one of the top sellers from Pimoroni. The Fan Shim manages a powerful 4,200 RPM and delivers significant added value by optimizing the thermal performance of your Raspberry Pi. Compatibility exists with the Raspberry Pi 4, but also with the 3 B+ and 3 A+ models.
The fan is equipped with RGB LED and a tactile switch, making it wonderfully controllable. The LED serves as an indicator to track the fan status and CPU load/temperature. The tactile switch is also handy: With the help of the included Python library and a daemon, you can program it to switch between temperature-controlled automatic mode and manual mode. Thanks to its "friction-fit" header, the Pimoroni Fan Shim can easily be plugged onto the pins of your mini computer and is ready to go without soldering. In general, the installation is uncomplicated and should not take more than two minutes. While the fan is doing its job, the noise level is very low: The maximum value is only 18.6 dB.
Apart from the Pimoroni Fan Shim, many other top products from Pimoroni are available at Berrybase. The Pibow Coupé 4 is recommended for all owners of a Raspberry Pi 4: The compact case reliably protects your mini computer from external influences like dust or shocks. All ports remain open and thus accessible. The high-quality processed and easy to mount frame for the official 7" Raspberry Pi touchscreen display also fulfills its protective function perfectly. With the Pirate Audio HAT you get a first-class 3W stereo amplifier for your mini computer: Use the module in combination with your Raspberry Pi and your speakers to control the playback of your favorite music and to create powerful sound.
Depending on what you have in mind, you can also use other modules from Pimoroni, such as LED sensors, camera modules or the Pico HAT Hacker.
