The Sequent Microsystems 8 MOSFETS 8-Layer Stackable HAT for Raspberry Pi is a stackable expansion card for Raspberry Pi. It has four high current channels which can drive 12A/24V loads and four high voltage channels which can drive loads of 4A/240V.
Stackable to 8 layers, the card can provide up to 64 solid-state outputs to each Raspberry Pi. Pluggable connectors make the 8-MOSFETS card easy to use when multiple cards are stacked up. Status LEDs show when MOSFETs are on or off.
The card is compatible with all Raspberry Pi versions from Zero to 5. All stacked cards share the I2C bus using only two of the Raspberry Pi’s GPIO pins to manage all eight cards. This feature leaves the remaining 24 GPIOs available for the user.
The 8-MOSFETS card needs 5V to operate and can be powered from Raspberry Pi or from it's own pluggable connector. The card draws about 50mA. If power is applied to the card, no other power supply is needed for the Raspberry Pi.
Up to eight 8-MOSFETS cards can be stacked on your Raspberry Pi. Each card is identified by jumpers you install to indicate the level in the stack. Cards can be installed in any order. The three position jumper on the upper right corner of the card selects the stack level.
The latest version of the 8-MOSFET card (V5.0) has several major improvements:
On board processor permits proportional load control using PWM
RS485 port connected to the local processor permits operation as MODBUS RTU slave, replacing the Raspberry Pi with any PLC
Heavy duty, 5mm pluggable connectors can control loads up to 12A
High current channels are galvanically separated from the High Voltage channels
TVS diode protection on high current outputs, diode protection on high voltage
All jumpers replaced with DIP Switches
Software compatible with previous version

The RA number is valid for 30 days. The returned item must be received within that period.
The RA number must be included with the return.
Products must be returned in unused, unmodified condition (e.g., no scratches, alterations, missing parts, or signs of installation/use) and in their original packaging, suitable for resale.
Shipping fees are non-refundable. Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer, except in cases of a product confirmed defective through RobotShop's troubleshooting process or of a verified shipping error by RobotShop.
Refunds are processed within 7 days after receipt and inspection of the returned item.
A $100 cleaning fee may apply to domestic robots returned in used or unclean condition.
A 20% restocking fee may apply to large-quantity returns of items ordered specifically for the customer from the manufacturer or not part of RobotShop's standard inventory.
Return Exceptions
The following products are not eligible for return or refund under this policy:
Used, damaged, or modified products — Items that show signs of use, wear, or alteration, making them unsuitable for resale.
Consumables — Use and wear-and-tear components, altered or depleted through use (e.g., batteries, belts, brushes, gears, filament, tires, disposable bags, lubricants, greases, waxes, etc.). Not eligible for return once opened or used.
Perishables — Goods liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly. Not eligible for return.
Sealed goods (health or hygiene) — Items sealed for health-protection or hygiene reasons (e.g., masks, gloves, odor-absorbing products). Not eligible for return once unsealed.
Build-it-yourself products and items requiring customer assembly — Including robots & kits, robot parts, and other products requiring assembly or soldering. Not eligible for return once assembled, soldered, or installed.
Digital Goods, Software, and Apps — Final sale only, due to licensing restrictions.
Clearance Items — Products identified as clearance or final sale, including end-of-life or discontinued items.
Custom-made, personalized, or special-order items — Products manufactured, configured, adapted, or built to the customer's own specifications and requirements.
On-Demand Items — Standard catalogue products not stocked by RobotShop and ordered specifically to fulfill a customer request.
While the same return policy applies, these orders require a separate contact process for returns.
RobotShop Fulfilled Orders → submit a support ticket from your account under My Support Tickets.
Marketplace Vendor Orders → submit a ticket from your account under My Marketplace Tickets to contact the vendor directly.
Note: Marketplace vendor products are normally labelled with SKUs starting with RM, and identified on the product page with the mention "Sold and fulfilled by [Vendor Name]".
