Summary of Contents for Joy-it STROM PI 2

  • Page 1 Should you encounter any unexpected problems during use, please do not hesitate to contact us. The StromPi 2 expansionboard is the new development of the Joy-IT power solution. Not only, the voltage range is increased from 6 to 61 V to connect...
  • Page 2 Therefore, the StromPi 2 board provides now up to 3 A current to supply greater projects with enough power. Moerover, the reset-function for the Raspberry Pi is now integrated which extends the USV-function of the StromPi practically. Through the new super-flat construction and connection, the StromPi 2 fits in many cases and new application areas.
  • Page 3: Pin Assignment

    2. PIN ASSIGNMENT 1. mode switch T - PIN (USV | Wide) high-power USB output Data input (for high- power USB output) and current output microUSB (5 V) voltage input (primary) wide-range (6 - 61 V) voltage input GPIO - port 2.
  • Page 4 For example a standard 3200 mAh LiPo-battery with 7.2 V would be theoretically existent ( if the self-discharge, environment effects like weather conditions, temperature and quality of the battery are excluded) 2500 mAh for the bypass operation - after 1 year of service life. (This is a theoretical statement to show how low the power consumption is.
  • Page 5 Switching between USV & Wide-mode Both operating modes can be selected via jumpers on the upper side of the board - Please note the markings on the board. Both jumpers must be reconnected in case of a mode change! High-power-USB One of the biggest disadvantages of the Raspberry Pi is that the USB outputs do not have a high power.
  • Page 6: Voltage Monitoring

    You can find this software in the download area on our website. https://joy-it.net/en/products/RB-StromPi2 Reset-circuit One of the upgrades in comparison of the predecessor is the installed reset-circuit from the StromPi 2.
  • Page 7 The position of the reset-area is different between the older models of the Raspberry Pi like B+, 2B and the Raspberry Pi 3. For this case The StromPi has 2 reset-pins on the underside. reset-pin reset-pin for for Raspberry Pi B+, 2B Raspberry Pi The reset-pin of the StromPi for the Raspberry Pi is isolated by default because it would cause shorts on the elder models!
  • Page 8: Further Informations

    Wide range voltage input You can now connect at the marked port arbitary voltage sources like for example power supplies, batteries or vehicle onboard supply. This must be in a switched on condition in a range from 6 to 61 V - Please pay attention to the polari- ty to avoid damage to the Raspberry Pi and the StromPi.
