MICROSTACK BASE BOARD (MICROSTACK)

The Microstack baseboard for Raspberry Pi brings the world of Microstack modules to the amazing world of Raspberry Pi. This baseboard can be used with Raspberry Pi model A and B and the newer A+ and B+ versions. It routes the appropriate GPIO pins of the Raspberry Pi to sockets to connect Microstack modules. The onboard 3.3V regulator makes enough current available to power a stack of Microstack modules, separate from the limited 3.3V supply on the Raspberry Pi. The 5V supply to the regulator and some Microstack modules can either be supplied from the Raspberry Pi or via an additional, onboard 5V microusb socket. The unique multi colour PCB and polarised sockets help ensure the correct modules are fitted in the correct orientation in the correct socket.
