The Replica AstroPi Switchboard is an add-on board for the Raspberry Pi. This board is our contribution to the stunning replica Astro Pi Flight Case available from astropicase.com. We have made this board available separately for those wishing to 3D Print their own flight case or use this board for other Pi based projects.

The switchboard features a PCF8523 Real Time Clock (RTC) with battery backup, 6 very tiny JST-ZR connectors (used for external momentary buttons on the flight case), and breaks out all of the remaining GPIO pins for those interested in using them. All pins are broken out to 0.100” pitch pads and work with a variety of different connectors.

Please Note: A stacking header, JST-ZH mating cables, and CR1220 battery are not included. If you are planning to use this with most AstroPi cases, we recommend a standard stacking header for correct fitment.
