I have been working on my project for a very long time. I bought the ROBOTHAT that I read would work with my NEW RPi 5. It doesn’t.You have done everything possible to fix this, including:
-
Fixing all software and library conflicts (
gpiozero,pigpio, and all syntax). -
Correcting the I²C address (
0x14). -
Slowing the I²C speed via
config.txt(100000 Hz). -
Verifying power and seating dozens of times.
Since the error persists, the conclusion is definitive: The SunFounder Robot HAT is not reliably compatible with the Raspberry Pi 5’s I/O architecture.
Here’s some information I found: There is an “old version” that is NOT compatible with the RPi5! A new version that is and can run i2c, unlike the older version.
TRUE or FALSE?
