Mounting to Pi B+
Posted: Wed Jul 29, 2015 9:16 pm
What is the recommended way to secure the PiDA over a Pi B+?
I'm thinking perhaps this could work:
It seems like the EzAsPi board will be offset by about 5mm, and will only allow drilling two Pi B+ mating holes. This is probably ok with the mated 26 pin connector and two stand-offs from the Pi B+ holding the EzAsPi board. Four point support would really be the best but the 5mm board offset puts two of the Pi B+ holes just off the end of the EzAzPi board.
The best "Breadboard" would be a genuine B+ prototyping board with a 40pin stacking connector, lots of proto area, and all four Pi B+ stand-offs locations pre-drilled. Surprisingly, I don't see any with as good a prototyping area as the EzAzPi.
Anyone?
