Seeed Studio XIAO Logger HAT for XIAO with RTC & Battery Monitor
🧢 This compact add-on hat for the XIAO series packs a punch with multiple smart features:
🌡️ SHT40 temperature & humidity sensor – for precise environmental readings 💡 BH1750 ambient light sensor – to measure brightness levels ⏰ PCF8563 real-time clock – ensures accurate timekeeping 🔋 Voltage divider – lets you monitor battery voltage with ease
Feature
🧢 Tiny Footprint Fits snugly on all Seeed Studio XIAO boards! With a slim lithium-ion battery tucked between the dev board and its hat, this logger is perfect for space-constrained projects. 🧩🔋
⚡ Power Supply Enable Sensors are GPIO-powered, allowing near-zero power sleep mode when idle. The always-on RTC sips less than 1 µA, making it ideal for battery-powered data loggers. 🌙🔌
🔗 I2C Communication Easy to code using existing libraries, and supports adding more sensors on the same bus. 📚🛠️
⏱️ On-board RTC The PCF8563 chip keeps time reliably and includes a programmable interrupt for deep sleep wakeups—essential for long-term logging. 🕰️🌿
📏 Accurate Monitoring
-
🌡️ SHT40 sensor: ±0.2°C temperature, ±1.8%RH humidity
-
⏰ PCF8563 RTC: Only ~7 minutes drift per year vs. 10 hours from ESP32’s internal RTC
🔋 Battery Voltage Monitoring Track battery status safely via a pin-enabled voltage divider. Perfect for mobile and remote deployments. 📉🔍

3. Warehouse Locations
Our products are stored in both our U.S. and Global warehouses to provide more flexible logistics solutions. On each product's description page, we indicate the specific warehouse location.
