PiSugar1
PiSugar 1 is our first product which aims to create an easiest way to power a Pi0. The connection goes through the bottom pads of pi0s and leave the GPIO free for other PHATs. And the installation is extremely easy for everyone.
PiSugar 1 cannot be used as a UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply). When external power is disconnected, there will be a brief power interruption that causes the Raspberry Pi to restart. This limitation is important to consider for applications requiring continuous operation.
Hardware SPECS
- PowerIC: Injoice IP5306 (without i2c)
