Description

The Waveshare Nano Base Board (A) serves as a vital carrier board for the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 (CM4), transforming the stripped-down, port-less CM4 into a usable development and embedded system. While the CM4 shares the processing power of a Raspberry Pi 4, it lacks integrated peripherals, necessitating a carrier board like this for functionality.

This base board is engineered to match the compact dimensions of the CM4, making it suitable for space-constrained applications. It facilitates CM4 integration by providing core interfaces such as a 40-pin GPIO, a USB 2.0 Type-A port, and a MIPI CSI-2 camera connector. Additionally, it features a Micro SD card socket, specifically supporting CM4 Lite versions that do not include onboard eMMC storage, ensuring broad compatibility for various project requirements.

Key Features

  • Micro SD card slot for CM4 Lite (eMMC-less) variants.
  • MIPI CSI-2 interface for camera modules (15pin 1.0mm FPC connector).
  • USB 2.0 Type A interface for peripheral connectivity.
  • Standard Raspberry Pi 40PIN GPIO interface for expansion.
  • PWR and ACT indicators for system status monitoring.
  • AMS1117-3.3 voltage regulator for stable 3.3V power.
  • BOOT switch for boot mode selection.
  • Directly compatible with Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4.

Applications

  • Embedded system prototyping and development.
  • Compact industrial control units.
  • IoT gateway solutions with minimal footprint.
  • Robotics and automation projects requiring CM4.
  • Custom edge computing devices and specialized HMI.
