The DiP-Pi Universal Advanced is a case + add-on board set for your Raspberry Pi Pico (not included), an easy and convenient way to create and house an advanced Pico project whilst also having the ability to attach other Pico add-on boards on top!
The set includes a black aluminium profile enclosure with clear plastic top and laser-cut acrylic side panels which give access to your Pico's Micro-USB port, and a custom add-on board that your Pico slots into, which includes:
The custom add-on board offers a wide range of functionality applicable to many projects. The relay contacts are rated 1A 30VDC (2A max), whilst the 1-wire and Grove interfaces allow the convenient adding of sensors and other devices. There's also a 12V RS232 double-driver interface! With all these features, combined with the feedback of the onboard LEDs and buzzer, you have everything you need for a complete project!
The transparent top cover allows you to see the add-on board LEDs, and provides light access if you decide to fit your own sensor to the interface pads. As the Pico's pins are pushed through the PCB, you can also attach other Pico add-on boards as well, as long as the add-on has dimensions within 34mm wide x 100mm long.
DiP-Pi cases can be used as a stand-alone device or screwed to rails. Raspberry Pi Pico not included.
Simple Assembly - No Soldering Required!
Assembly of DiP-Pi cases is quick and easy:
Fit your Pico to the PCB (no soldering required due to the grip-fit, however some applications may require soldering)
Fit one acrylic end to the aluminium profile and secure with 4 screws
Slide the correct end of the PCB through the case, with the little PCB 'tongue' sliding into the acrylic to hold it in place
Line up the other acrylic end panel, ensuring the other PCB 'tongue fits into the slot, then secure with 4 screws
Slide the clear top cover into place
