Hi Francis, Yes, you can use power banks with USB-PD, just like USB-PD adapters, to power the RPi 5 using the Pichondria 5V 5A converter board. If…
Minimum voltage required is ~6V for the Pichondria converter to turn on. The recommended voltage is about 12-20V. But, it can operate from 6-20V wit…
You can power the Arduino via USB-A or USB-C output port of the Pichondria. But the I2C pins of Pichondria are designed to withstand only 3.3V. So e…
Yes. You can press the switch 3 times to shutdown the Pichondria without acknowledgement, even if you have enabled acknowledgement mode. This should…
Once batteries are inserted for the first time, you need to plug-in the adapter to the input to unlock the battery protection circuitry. Check out t…
You don’t need a USB-PD or QC charger with pichondria. Use a 5V 3A adapter or better. Pichondria powers the output from the adapter whenever adapter i…
Yes. There is an analog protection IC at the output. If there is a voltage spike at the output, the analog IC will turn off the output to the Raspberr…
