RAPIDv3 Extensions
Raspberry Pi Interface Board
The Raspberry Pi Interface board rapid_v3_14u can be directly attached to the Raspberry Pi pin header. Two different assembly options are available:
- for radar modules with 5 V power supply
- for radar modules with 3.3 V power supply
The radar module can be enabled by a hardware jumper or a Raspberry Pi GPIO. An additional I2C based current, voltage and power monitor is additionally available which is helpful for exploring low power applications.
More details about this PCB in combination with a Raspberry Pi backend software is available at the Evaluation Kit page.
NanoPi NEO Core (2) Interface Board
The iInterface board rapid_v3_14n can be used in combination with a NanoPi NEO Core or NanoPi NEO Core 2 Two different assembly options are available:
- for radar modules with 5 V power supply
- for radar modules with 3.3 V power supply
The rapid_v3_14n board has following interfaces:
