iC880A + Raspberry Pi Backplane

Buy this board at shop.coredump.ch!

This is a backplane to connect an iC880A-SPI concentrator board to a Raspberry Pi. It is inspired by the iC880A backplane by @gonzalocasas, but aims to give you the following additional features:

Power

  • Screw terminal and footprint for MP1584 step-down regulator module (6.7-28V)
  • Screw terminal for direct power input/output (5V)
  • Protection diode and resettable polyfuse against high voltage spikes
  • Protection against reverse polarity power input

Headers

  • Full access to Raspberry Pi GPIO header
  • Pin header for serial communication (RX/TX)
  • 2 Pin headers for I²C based sensors (SDA/SCL/GND/3.3V/5V)

Sensors

  • A SHT21 temperature/humidity sensor
  • An MCP3425 16-bit ADC to measure RPi supply voltage

Other

  • Pin header with flyback diode for 5V fan (5V/GND)
  • General purpose button connected to GPIO pin (e.g. for controlled Raspi shutdown)
  • Three general purpose SMD LEDs (Note: Only usable from Raspi versions with 40-pin GPIO header)
  • Mounting holes for Raspberry Pi B+ / 2B / 3B / Zero
