Overview

The X710 is a power management expansion board for all current models of the Raspberry Pi using a 40-pin header. It provides 5A of continuous output current over a wide 6V to 36V operating input range with excellent load and line regulation，intelligent and safe power management, safe shutdown and full poweroff through software, and a low noise cooling fan which enables the use of the Raspberry Pi in extreme conditions including very high temperature environments. The X710 also reserves the 40-pin header that can be stacked with other Raspberry Pi accessory boards for enhanced applications.

Note: X710 does not support Raspberry Pi 5.

  • - Output: 5V 5%, Max 5A
  • - DC power jack : 5.5*2.5mm, Positive Tip
  • - Board size: 65 x 57mm
NOTES
  • - Full poweroff through software is not supported when using external latching power switch
  • - Don't connect any 5V-powered device to XH2.54 power input connector.

Is there a script or other advice for using the RPI4 shutdown/power GPIO pin 3 with this board?

The X710 was directly connected to a 37VDC battery through the DC Jack without being placed on the top of a PI 4. Then, the X710 board was burn. I had a spark on it.

Could you tell me what happend on it?

On the XH2.54 power input header, which pin should be DC-in and which should be ground? Same for the barrel connector?

If power is applied from the USB-C connector on the Pi4 instead of from the mounted X710, will the Pi4 or X710 be damaged?

Hi dear ,Pls do not supply power through the Raspberry Pi micro-usb or type-C port, the boards may be damaged,By the way ,There are many Raspberry Pi fans exchange experiences on our official website, you are welcome to join us https://geek...munity/forum

The software install seems to be trashed. I'm getting something about the website being for sale in the x710.sh file when running the script. I was downloading this to get the momentary switch to work correctly although probably don't need it. Momentary switch with no pins jumpered doesn't reboot or soft shutdown. Only power on and hard power off.

I am having difficulty in finding this --- XH2.54 --- power switch connector. I can match the 2 pin connectors on the board but not the power switch connector (4 pin) Please help.

THank you :-)

Is there a script to regulate fan RPM for temperature ranges?

Thanks!

Nice board. Can you please point me to a manual on how to use the "Power switch connector"? An external on / off button would be good to have.

Hi friend,

You can use our PSW19, https://geek...x820-or-x735

Great board. One little convenience is that if you have something in the same enclosure that needs to share the input voltage (in my case, it's a 12V USB hub) you can use the other input voltage connector - it's parallel with the power socket, and is NOT switched.

Hello

I received the X710 board, connected to my RaspPi4B, installed the software as recommended above and unfortunately could not make it fully functional: ON works, OFF power cut does too (after 8 sec of holding a button); safe shut down DOES NOT. Any help would be much appreciated!

The other thing I like about this board is, if I want to run 12V,15V,etc. accessories,up to your input voltage at a later time, it gives you that ability too. THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX!

Will there be, or can there be software written to control fan speeds for these X power boards? Just curious. Thanks for and replies in advance.

AWESOME LITTLE BOARD!!!!!!!!!!!!

With a good power supply you, can effectively provide a constant 5V with up to 17A of usage. I'm using a Dell power supply that provides 19.2 volts and 4.62 amps. The x735 board will STOP supplying enough power at 3 extra HDs, documentation says, ADD MORE POWER SUPPLIES AFTER 3 for the x735. We can put on 6 x828, x825, etc. boards with this supply and run a HUGE family cloud server, if thats what you want to do. The x735 is easier for the masses to understand and use, but I'd recommend this x710 for ANY serious POWER USER.....hehe
