Introducing the Hat uPCIty Lite from Pineboards - a PCI Express evaluation board with an open ended PCIe X4 slot, compatible with Raspberry Pi 5!
This board supports external power for your PCIe device - it can supply 12V 8A to your card from the standard ATX power connector, or use the barrel jack for less power-hungry applications.
Raspberry Pi 5 not included
PCIe FPC Bundles now available
In case you are thinking about integrating this board into your custom project, don't overlook the optional Pineboards PCIe FPC Bundle. Utilising the 100mm ribbon cable will provide you with added flexibility during the installation process of our boards.
Features
- Designed for Raspberry Pi 5: Compatible with the latest single-board computer from Raspberry Pi
- Test new hardware just like we do: The uPCIty line used to be our secret weapon and now we open it to all the makers.
- Open ended PCIe X4 slot: Yes, you can connect your RTX 4090 to the Pi. We won't stop you.
- Support for external power: The board can supply 12V 8A to your card from a standard ATX power connector. You can also use a barrel jack for less power-hungry applications.
- It won't fry your Pi: We wanted to play it safe and decided to isolate the PCIe Express power delivery from your Pi. This approach also reduces the heat output from the board and it is very important considering the small footprint. We recommend the official 5V 5A power supply for your little computer available in black or white.
- PCIe Interface Support: Compatible with PCIe x1 interface in both Gen2 and Gen3 standards, offering versatile connectivity.

Unlock the secrets of nature with code, engineering, and the Kitronik Smart Greenhouse Kit for BBC micro:bit!
The Kitronik Smart Greenhouse Kit for the BBC micro:bit provides an exciting way to learn about the relationship between plants and their environment. The user will learn how to monitor environmental conditions and then how to build automated systems.
The kit comprises a two-part plastic greenhouse, Kitronik environmental control board, water pump, Kitronik ZIP Stick, and Mini Prong soils moisture sensor. Also included are 5 crocodile clips, ZIP extension cable and a small screwdriver. Just add a micro:bit, seeds, and then some water and you will have everything you need!
The kit also ships with detailed instructions that will get you up and cultivating in no time. Additionally, there are 7 online MakeCode tutorials. They cover everything from gathering sensor data and having the system automatically react to it, to visual user interfaces and more.
At the heart of the micro:bit controlled Kitronik Smart Greenhouse Kit is the Kitronik environmental control board. This board provides a variety of sensor inputs and connection points for the BBC micro:bit (V1 & V2) and provides the ability to control outputs for devices such as a water pump, fan, servo or heater pad.
The environmental control board can be coded with the MakeCode editor and Kitronik has produced a set of custom blocks to make the job as simple as possible. The blocks can be added via the add Extensions function in the editor by searching “Kitronik” or from https://github.com/KitronikLtd/pxt-kitronik-smart-greenhouse.
The default crop for these types of experiments is often cress, as it is quick growing, requires little tending, and can be harvested when they are approximately 5cm tall (within a few days). There are other sprouting plants, such as sprouting white mustard, which also grow quickly and can be harvested when they are 5cm tall. You can also look into micro-herbs/micro-greens. Once you have chosen your preferred crop type you then need to choose a suitable soil.
Note:
- This kit does not come with a BBC micro:bit, available separately here > BBC micro:bit.
- This kit is not waterproof. If you get the board wet, please turn it off and allow it to fully dry. The risk of shock is very small, but be cautious.
- Due to electrolysis and the damp environment, the electrodes on the Mini Prong Moisture Sensor will degrade slowly over time. Please see our general safety advice for more information.
Features
- Build automated growing systems that react to changeable environmental conditions.
- This kit is compatible with both micro:bit V1 and microbit V2.
- The kit comes with detailed assembly and coding instructions.
- At the heart of the kit is the kitronik Environmental control board, designed to be the control hub for this kit.
- Key features of the Environmental control board are;
- It features a number of sensor inputs that can be coded to control the board's outputs.
- There is an onboard BME 280 environmental temperature, barometric pressure and humidity sensor and a separate Real-Time Clock (RTC).
- The board also features an onboard piezo buzzer, 2 1A outputs (ideal for a water pump, heater pads or fan), 3 status ZIP LEDs, a ZIP LED expansion connector and servo output. In addition to these, 3 BBC micro:bit pins are broken out to croc-clip connections as further inputs and outputs, along with pads for 3V and GND.
- It can be powered via the onboard 3xAA battery holder or the 2.1mm DC Jack, and the power is controlled via the on/off switch with an adjacent LED indicator.
- There are also 7 online MakeCode tutorials that introduce you to all of the features of the board.
