When unpacking the board it is immediately obvious how closely they’ve followed the Raspberry Pi form factor. There are a few differences, no camera or DSI connectors, the SD card in a different place, a power jack where the Pi has its audio jack, and oddly the network port is the other way up. Otherwise it looks as though it should fit most Pi cases. Of course the only case we had to hand was a PiBow which are cut for specific Pi models, so sadly we couldn’t test that assertion.Īside from the Ethernet, USB, HDMI, and GPIO ports, most of the top of the board is occupied by a low-profile heatsink that covers the processor and two of the RAM chips. There is a UART socket and infrared receiver at the end opposite the USB and network ports, and a 2.5mm power jack next to the HDMI socket.
