## Description

SHIM is a old Yorkshire term meaning 'Shove Hardware In Middle' - we use it for our Raspberry Pi add-ons that are designed to be sandwiched between your Pi and a HAT or mini HAT. This one has a clever friction fit header which slips handily over your GPIO pins, requires zero soldering and is easily removable.The PCM5100A DAC chip takes high quality digital audio from your Pi and pipes out crisp, line-level 24-bit / 192KHz stereo audio through the 3.5mm jack. Because Audio DAC SHIM adds no extra bulk to your Pi it's perfect for fitting inside sleek cases or hiding inside hi-fis, media centres or radiograms - letting you play music or stream digital radio through that still perfectly good sound system. It's also a handy way to add an an audio output to your Pi Zero or Pi 400!Please note a Raspberry Pi is not included with this boardFeaturesPCM5100A DAC chipLine-level digital audio (24-bit / 192KHz) over I2S3.5mm stereo jackSHIM-format board with friction-fit connectors2x mounting holes (M2.5) for if you want to secure everything together with boltsFully-assembledNo soldering requiredCompatible with all 40-pin header Raspberry Pi modelsSoftwareThe easiest way to get everything set up is to to use our Pirate Audio software and installer which configures I2S audio and SPI, as well as installing Mopidy and our custom Pirate Audio plugins which will let you stream Spotify or play local files.NotesYou can use an Audio DAC SHIM with HATs and mini HATs without a booster header, as long as they don't have any chunky components on the underside (it's a good idea to check there are no metal components on the underside of your HAT that touch the metal components on the top of the SHIM).
