Enhance your projects with the Four Letter pHAT! It's a fantastic device that allows you to display four - letter words (not the inappropriate kind, of course). This pHAT comes equipped with four 14 - segment displays, enabling you to showcase text, numbers, and a wide range of other characters. The LEDs have a stunning retro - green color, reminiscent of your old digital alarm clock. They are powered by the HT16K33 chip over I2C.

Ideal as a readout for your projects, it can display temperatures, times, and more. When combined with other boards like Enviro pHAT or Explorer pHAT, it becomes extremely useful for showing their sensor values.
