Pineboards TM1A1M HatDrive! Piano (NVMe 2230, 2242 GEN 3) for Raspberry Pi 5
Description
The HatDrive! Piano adds a Texas Instruments DAC with RCA output and coupled headphone amplifier. It also comes with support for PCIe GEN 3 M.2 NVMe storage.
Key Features and Strengths:
- Specially Designed for Raspberry Pi 5: Dedicated to the latest single-board computer, the Raspberry Pi 5.
- Bringing Back the 3.5mm Headphone Jack: The Pi 5 took the jack away and we brought it back. On top of that, the HatDrive! Piano also includes a headphone amplifier.
- RCA Line Out for Easy Integration with Your Sound System: Elevate your Hi-Fi setup with ease.
- High Quality DAC: 112dB Audio Stereo DAC from Texas Instruments with 32-bit, 384kHz PCM Interface.
- NVMe Drive Installation Capability: Supports installing NVMe (M-key) drives in M.2 format sizes 2230 and 2242.
- PCIe Interface Support: Offers support for PCIe x1 interface in both Gen2 and Gen3 standards.
- Dual LED Indicators: Features 2 LED lights for power supply voltage (?PWR?) and M.2 disk activity (?ACT?).
- 40-Pin Raspberry Pi HAT Connector Support: Supports the standard 40-pin Raspberry Pi HAT connector.
- Dedicated I2C EEPROM Memory: Compatible with HAT ID, allowing for advanced identification and configuration.
- Advanced Power Supply Monitoring and Diagnostics: Continuous monitoring and diagnostics of the power supply bus, measuring voltage, current, and power parameters in real-time via an I2C interface.
- M.2 Standard-Compliant Power System: Integrated voltage regulator delivering up to 3A for the 3.3V power rail, compliant with M.2 (NGFF) standard.
- Easy and Quick M.2 Disk Installation: Quick installation of M.2 disks in 2230 or 2242 format, thanks to a dedicated metal bracket (custom CNC made).
- M.2 Card Power Options: Capable of powering the M.2 card directly from the FPC PCIe ribbon (port providing a minimum of 5W continuous power) or through the 40-pin HAT connector.
- High-Quality Components: Utilizes top-quality electronic components and a 4-layer PCB.
- All Necessary Accessories Included: Comes with a dedicated FPC PCIe ribbon, spacer pins, M2.5 screws, a spacer pin for M.2 card mounting, and a 40-pin male-female HAT connector.
