The Raspberry Pi 5, released in October 2023, is recommended to be powered at 5V5A. For platforms like NVIDIA Jetson and USB3.0 high-expandability routers such as R4S, the demand for current is increasing. The minimum starting point is 5V3A, but it is recommended to use 5V4A or, conditions permitting, 5V5A. In response to such high-current applications, our company has designed a new generation of 5V5A (short-term reaching nearly 5V6A) power module. Compared to earlier versions, the new design comes standard with a fan, ensuring stable and reliable operation under sustained high-current loads. It also adds support for PD chargers.
PD chargers, compared to traditional chargers, have higher power and energy density, and the compact size of the gallium nitride PD charger has become popular. Early PD chargers were mainly used for laptop charging, with power ratings mainly at 45W and 65W. In recent years, rapid development in fast charging for mobile phones has led to a large number of low-power PD chargers between 20W and 33W. These chargers offer higher cost-effectiveness and are smaller and more convenient to carry. 30W PD charger is sufficient to support the full load output of our 5V5A power module.
lt can be powered through USB-C that supports PD/QC protocol, and the PD/QC handshake voltage is 12V, DC5.5-2.1 input, range 7-12V, choose one of the two input circuits for use.
USB2.0-A and USB-C dual interface output, the total output can reach more than 5A, With voltage trimming jumper, the output voltage can be increased by about 0.2V if opened.
Cooling Fan included, however, it does not need to be used for loads below 3A, Come with a 3D printed base for protection.
