• Integrated Real Time Clock
• Onboard intelligent on/off switch
• Low power deep-sleep state with wake on interrupt/calendar event
• Programmable multi-colored RGB led (x2) and buttons (x3) with super simple user-configurable options
• Hardware watchdog timer to keep your Raspberry Pi on and working in mission-critical remote applications
• Full power management API available to Raspberry Pi OS with auto shutdown capability when running low on batteries
• Raspberry Pi HAT compatible layout, with onboard EEPROM for easy plug and play operation
• Low profile design to fit inside lots of existing Raspberry Pi cases!
• Enhanced graphical user interface (GUI) available for easy install (via APT)
• Customisable scripts for enhanced flexibility and full report of battery status
• All GPIOs available via stackable header for ease of expandability and connectivity
• Charge via on-board micro USB or via the Raspberry Pi micro USB (or from onboard pin headers)
• Batteries can be charged with a different type of sources and voltages
• Replace the battery without downtime. Compatible with any single cell LiPo or LiIon battery
• Fully CE and FCC tested design.

Specifications

• The EEPROM can be disabled and its I2C address changed for increased compatibility with other boards
• BP7X battery - original battery from Motorola Droid 2 (A955) - 1820 mAh battery
• Microcontroller is an ST Micro STM32F030CCT6 ARM Cortex-M0, 48 MHz, F64KB, R8KB, I2C, SPI, USART, 2.4 V - 3.6 V
• Charge IC - BQ24160RGET Charger IC Lithium-Ion/Polymer, 2.5 A, 4.2 V - 10 V
• Fuel gauge IC - LC709203FQH-01TWG Battery Fuel Gauge, 1-Cell Li-ion, 2.8%
• EEPROM - CAT24C32WI-GT3 EEPROM, I2C, 32 KBIT, 400 kHz, 1V7-5V5
• Optional spring pin - Mil-Max 0929-7-15-20-77-14-11-0
• Compatible with any 4 pin battery on board that can be used with 00-9155-004-742-006 battery contacts from AVX including the BP7X, BP6X, and any compatible batteries including the 1600mAh and 2300mAh ones from CameronSino (CS-MOA853SL and CS-MOA855XL)
• There is an onboard 4 pin screw terminal block for larger off board batteries. Any single cell LiPo / LiIon is compatible. However, you use your own sourced battery at your own risk.
  We HIGHLY RECOMMEND using a battery with an internal protection circuit and an NTC (temp sensor)
• Optional header for offboard button - connected to the same output as SW1
• 6 pin breakout header - with two GPIO from the ARM Cortex-M0, VSYS, 5V0, 3V3, GND connections
• A header for optional off board solar panel/wind turbine etc.
• Optional RF Shield attachment - Harwin S02-20150300 (can also double as an inexpensive heatsink)
• Input voltage range - 4.2 V - 10 V
• Output voltage - 3.3 V and 5 V
• Output amperage - maximum current at 5 V gpio is 2.5 A and at VSYS output 2.1 A, but also this depends heavily on battery capacity. For BP7X have measured around 1.1 A at 5V GPIO and around 1.6 A at VSYS output. Obviously, this also depends heavily on the current draw demanded by the Raspberry Pi/device itself. To achieve a maximum of 2.5 A it will need battery over 3500 mAh.
