# Unicorn pHAT
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
32 blindingly bright LEDs packed into a pHAT and driven with an ultra-fast, C library that you can talk to from Python make Unicorn HAT PiGlow's bigger, brighter brother.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note: Unicorn pHAT uses some special PWM trickery, performed with the same hardware that lets your Pi produce sound through the audio jack ( analog audio ) so you can't use both at the same time!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To get the HAT set up and ready to go you can use the one-line product installer:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
curl -sS https://get.pimoroni.com/unicornhat | bash
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then import it into your Python script and start tinkering:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
import unicornhat
|
||
|
|
unicorn.set_layout(unicorn.PHAT)
|
||
|
|
unicornhat.set_pixel(0, 0, 255, 255, 255)
|
||
|
|
unicornhat.show()
|
||
|
|
```
