## Description

The Raspberry Pi Codec Zero is a Raspberry Pi Zero-sized audio I/O HAT. It delivers bi-directional digital audio signals (I2S) between Raspberry Pi Zero and its onboard Dialog Semiconductor DA7212 codec. Codec Zero supports a range of input and output devices, from the built-in MEMS microphone to external mono electret microphones and 1.2W, 8Ω mono speakers.

The Raspberry Pi Codec Zero has GREEN (GPIO23) and RED (GPIO24) LEDs that can be used for status, and a tactile button (GPIO27) that can be used to start an event. The Codec Zero makes a great starting point for a walkie talkie, intelligent doorbell, vintage radio hack, or smart speaker.

The Codec Zero connects to a Pi through the short female headers on the underside of the HAT.
