The 5V for the Pi are supplied by a buck regulator (max. 3A ), whose input voltage goes directly to the mini AV-mini monitor, which makes a sufficient and cheap screen for many purposes, when you adapt the resolution to make things readable. A separate linear regulator makes 3,3V @ 1A on the other breadboard rail in case you need them. Now you can use power supplies and batteries over a wide voltage range (I think the monitor as well as the LM2596 can take quite high input voltages, even above 15V).<\/p>\n<p>Now you have everything handy, you can develop your RPi projects without having severe chaos on your desktop&#8230; <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thinkering.de\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Raspberry-Pi-Hacktop.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thinkering.de\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Raspberry-Pi-Hacktop-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Raspberry Pi Hacktop\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-322\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.thinkering.de\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Raspberry-Pi-Hacktop-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.thinkering.de\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Raspberry-Pi-Hacktop-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thinkering.de\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/RPi-Hacktop-with-Keyboard.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thinkering.de\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/RPi-Hacktop-with-Keyboard-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"RPi Hacktop with Keyboard\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-323\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.thinkering.de\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/RPi-Hacktop-with-Keyboard-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.thinkering.de\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/RPi-Hacktop-with-Keyboard-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Raspberry Pi Hacktop &#8211; a convenient development environment for the RPi When experimenting with the Raspberry Pi one wishes to have the essential stuff handy: a breadboard, a USB hub, a speaker, a (debug) monitor, keyboard and mouse, WiFi, different supply voltages, and maybe even battery power.
