The CM5 MINIMA is a compact carrier board for the latest Raspberry Pi computing module 5. It is designed for embedded applications, DIY electronics, and low-power computing projects. Unlike traditional desktop computers, the CM5 is a small, efficient system that integrates essential computing hardware onto a single board. Whether you're a hobbyist, developer, or engineer, this module provides a versatile platform for various applications, including IoT, automation, and custom hardware development.This product is a co-create collaboration with Seeed Studio and Pierluigi Colangeli.

Features:

• USB-C Power Delivery (PD): Supports power negotiation for efficient energy use.
• USB 2.0 Ports: Connect peripherals such as keyboards, mice, and external storage.
• Gigabit Ethernet: High-speed wired networking with a low-profile cutout magjack.
• HDMI Port: Output video to external displays for media playback or interface applications.
• M.2 M Key Slot: Supports 2242 HAILO accelerator or SSDs for storage expansion.
• CSI/DSI Connector: Attach camera modules or displays for vision-based applications.
• LIS3DH STM32 accelerometer: can help with automatic camera orientation.
• I2C Connector (3.3V only): Connect low-power sensors and communication modules.
• SPI Connector: Supports high-speed communication with other devices.
• Fan Connector: Optional cooling support for high-performance applications.
• Status LEDs: Visual indicators for power and system activity.
• nRPI boot switch: Flash CM5 OS directly on-board.
• Compact Size: Measuring only 6.1 × 6.1 cm, ideal for space-constrained projects.
