Mini 5V UPS board

5V / 2A output with micro USB in, USB-A out for small


computing devices

Introduction
This mini UPS provides 5V, 2A max. power to small computing devices like the Raspberry Pi
or BeagleBoard. It features a micro USB connector for power input and a USB-A for power
output. Signalling in and outputs as well as an auxiliary 5V output are provided via a 5 pin
header and associated plug with screw terminals. A three position switch allows the UPS to be
turned on, off or to run in programmable mode. In this mode the UPS can be switched off under
control of a connected computer. The UPS features 4 signalling LEDs to indicate its status.

The UPS is supplied as a printed circuit board without enclosure.

Although no ready made software is supplied with the device an application note is provided
with a possible implementation of control software for a Raspberry Pi or other similar Linux
small computing device
