Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3+ Lite User Manual

Model: RPICM3P-LITE

1. Bubuka

The Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3+ Lite is an industrial-grade System-on-Module (SoM) that integrates the core components of a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ into a compact SODIMM form factor. This module is designed for embedded applications, offering a powerful quad-core processor and 1GB of LPDDR2 SDRAM. It provides access to more GPIO pins when used with a compatible I/O board (not included), making it suitable for a wide range of industrial and consumer products.

2. Émbaran Kasalametan

Please read all safety instructions carefully before using the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3+ Lite.

  • The Compute Module must only be handled in compliance with Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protection measures.
  • Before connecting to a power supply, ensure that no thermal overload will occur. Adequate ventilation is crucial.
  • Do not operate the module in humid, wet, or excessively dusty environments.
  • Never allow direct contact with water or any other conductive liquids.
  • Only connect the module with recommended power supplies that provide the correct voltage jeung ayeuna.
  • Liquids, dust, and overvoltages can lead to dangerous situations or cause permanent defects.
  • Avoid storing the module in an enclosed housing without proper ventilation to prevent damage or corrosion.
  • Do not attempt to repair defective modules or components yourself. Unauthorized repairs can void your warranty and cause further damage.
  • Recycle defective or discarded Compute Modules according to local electronic waste disposal regulations.

4. Setélan

The Compute Module 3+ Lite requires a compatible I/O board for operation. This section outlines the general steps for initial setup.

  1. Prepare I/O Board: Ensure your I/O board is compatible with the Compute Module 3+ Lite and has the necessary power supply and peripheral connections.
  2. Insert Compute Module: Carefully align the Compute Module 3+ Lite with the SODIMM connector on your I/O board. Apply even pressure to insert it fully until it is securely seated.
  3. Sambungkeun Periferal: Connect any required peripherals such as a display (HDMI), keyboard, mouse, and network cable to the I/O board.
  4. Sasayogian tanaga: Connect a suitable power supply to your I/O board. Refer to your I/O board's documentation for specific power requirements.
  5. Sistem operasi: The Compute Module 3+ Lite does not have onboard eMMC storage. You will need to provide an operating system via an SD card (if your I/O board supports it) or network boot. It is compatible with NOOBS 3.0.0 or later.

5. Parentah Operasi

Once the Compute Module 3+ Lite is set up with an I/O board and an operating system, its operation is similar to a standard Raspberry Pi.

  • Daya Hurung: Apply power to the I/O board. The module should boot up, and you should see output on your connected display.
  • OS Interaction: Interact with the operating system using your connected keyboard and mouse.
  • Pamasangan parangkat lunak: Install software and applications as needed for your specific project or application.
  • Pamakéan GPIO: Utilize the GPIO pins for interfacing with external hardware, following the documentation for your I/O board and the Raspberry Pi GPIO libraries.
  • Pareuman: Always perform a proper shutdown of the operating system before disconnecting power to prevent data corruption.

6. Pangropéa

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable operation of your Compute Module 3+ Lite.

  • Tetep Bersih: Regularly clean the module and I/O board to prevent dust accumulation, which can lead to overheating or short circuits. Use a soft, dry brush or compressed air.
  • Kontrol Lingkungan: Operate the module within its specified temperature and humidity ranges. Avoid extreme conditions.
  • Pembaruan firmware: Keep the operating system and any relevant firmware updated to ensure optimal performance and security.
  • Sambungan Aman: Periodically check all connections (SODIMM, power, peripherals) to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion.
  • Perlindungan ESD: When handling the module, always observe ESD precautions to prevent damage from static electricity.
