One can never have enough socks, or USB ports. Add some more USB capability to your Raspberry Pi Zero, or any other single-board computer with the Zero4U!
Available in two versions:
- A 4-port USB hub for Raspberry Pi Zero, and it can be mounted back-to-back onto a Pi Zero. The 4 pogo pins on the back will connect the PP1, PP6, PP22 and PP23 testing pads on your Raspberry Pi Zero – no soldering required!
- This item can only work with the Zero W if a ferrite ring is installed!
- If you use this USB hub with other types of computers, you can use a USB cable (not included) to connect the onboard mini-USB port to the up-stream USB port.
- Kit includes:
- 4-port USB hub board x 1
- Plastic spacer x 4
- M2.5 plastic screw x 4
- M2.5 plastic nut x 4
-
Note: This version of Zero4U only works with the Raspberry Pi Zero v1.3 (with camera connector).
- An almost identical 4-port USB 2.0 hub without the ferrite bead, standoffs or pogo pins. This might be a preferable format if you want to mount it on the bottom or side-by-side or with another HAT below it. It's also great as-is as a small USB hub.
- Since this version does not have the pogo pins, we recommend using the onboard mini-USB port to the up-stream USB port, which will provide power and data. Or, you can solder to the test pads or use the JST XH2.54 connector on board as the power input port.
The USB hub will take power directly from your Pi Zero, so you don’t need to power the USB hub separately. However you can use the JST XH2.54 connector on board as an alternative power input port. The blue onboard LED is the power indicator, and will light up when power is connected. Each USB port uses a dedicated white LED as a transaction indicator, and a dedicated electrolytic capacitor to help stabilize the output voltage.
