This is a 1.5m long3.5mm ODmaleto tinned wires cable, for the Pimoroni Wide Input SHIM. Note that this cable requires soldering for connecting to the Wide Input SHIM.

Usage

You can supply arange inputvoltages to Wide Input SHIM, either through the centre positive3.5mm outer diameter barrel jack connector, orthrough the two broken-out + and – pins on the SHIM.

The board will provide5V/2A output (throughthe GPIO to the Pi) at inputvoltagesof 5V to 16V. Current drops to 1.5A at 4V, and 1A at 3V.

Pulling the EN (enable) pin to ground will cut the 5V voltage output, although it should be noted that you should shut your Pi down cleanly before doing this!

Notes

  • This item is an accessory forthe Wide Input SHIM (available separately)
  • Using both micro-USB power and Wide Input SHIM power at the same time is not recommended with Pi Zero / W where there is no protection against back-powering
