Board designed to provide external power (e.g. using 2-3S LiPo batteries) for Raspberry Pis onboard the Galactic Aztec rocket.
Supports 6-14 VDC input and allows tuning of output voltage between 4.64 and 5.27 VDC to the Raspberry Pi 5V GPIO pins. NOTE: RTRIM1 is incorrectly labelled as 2k and a 2.5k resistor should be used instead to put the output voltage at the expected range.
The design features the LTC4412HV to act as an ideal safety diode, which is advised for Raspberry Pi HATs.
The hope was to utilize the power switch-over features of the LTC4412HV, allowing for the Raspberry Pi to be powered via USB and upon disconnecting, automatically switch over to the auxiliary power input, but in testing this feature did not function properly. Power was drawn from both sources when connected rather than completely switching between the available power sources.
Custom EagleCAD parts on this board can be found in the SDSU Rocket Eagle Libraries.
