Wide Input SHIM
Power your Raspberry Pi from a wide range of input voltages—3V to 16V. The Wide Input SHIM accepts power from 12V barrel jack supplies, bench power supplies, or battery packs, and converts it to the 5V your Pi needs.
The ultra-thin SHIM format (0.8mm PCB) solders directly to your Pi's GPIO pins and is slim enough to stack HATs and pHATs on top.
Key Features
- Wide Voltage Range – Accepts 3-16V input
- 5V/2A Output – Full 2A at 5-16V input (1.5A at 4V, 1A at 3V)
- Buck-Boost Converter – TPS630701 chip handles voltages above and below 5V
- Ultra-Thin Design – 0.8mm PCB for HAT/pHAT stacking
- Reverse Voltage Protection – Protects against incorrect polarity
- Enable Pin – Pull EN to ground to cut output power
- Adapter Cables Included – Works with 3.5mm and 5.5mm barrel jacks
Specifications
- Input Voltage – 3-16V DC
- Output – 5V, up to 2A
- Barrel Jack – 3.5mm OD, 1.3mm ID (centre positive)
- Dimensions – 45 × 17 × 6mm
Package Contents
- 1× Wide Input SHIM
- 1× 2×6 female header (requires soldering)
- 1× 3.5mm to 5.5mm barrel adapter cable (15cm)
- 1× 3.5mm barrel to tinned wires cable (15cm)
Note: On Pi Zero/W, avoid using both USB power and Wide Input SHIM simultaneously—there's no back-power protection on these models.
