Overview
Enhance the capabilities of your Pi 5 with the PCIe to 2-CH PCIe HAT, a versatile expansion board designed to unlock the full potential of the Pi 5's 16-PIN PCIe Gen2
interface. This adapter splits the Pi 5's native PCIe port into two independent PCIe FFC connectors, allowing you to connect and stack multiple PCIe HATs simultaneously.
Whether you're building a NAS, a robotics controller, or a multi-device testing rig, this board provides the flexibility to scale your projects effortlessly.
Key Features:
Dual PCIe FFC Expansion: Transform the Pi 5's single PCIe interface into 2-CH PCIe connections, compatible with FFC cables for peripherals like NVMe SSD adapters, SATA controllers, or FPGA modules.
PCIe Gen2 Speed Optimization: Delivers stable PCIe 2.0 bandwidth (5 Gbps per lane), ensuring high-speed data transfer for latency-sensitive applications.
Multi-HAT Stacking Support: Chain multiple PCIe HATs for complex setups—ideal for developers needing simultaneous GPU, storage, and networking modules.
Raspberry Pi 5 Exclusive Compatibility: Designed specifically for the Pi 5's 16-PIN PCIe port, ensuring perfect alignment and secure connectivity via the included cable.
Tool-Free Installation: Simply attach the HAT to the Pi 5's GPIO header and connect the 16-PIN cable—no technical expertise required.
Applications:
DIY Server Builds: Add dual NVMe drives or 10G Ethernet cards for a compact, high-performance server.
Robotics & Automation: Stack motor controllers, vision sensors, and communication modules on a single Pi 5.
Prototyping & Testing: Rapidly switch between PCIe devices without reconfiguring hardware.
