Brad Linder<p>The ClockworkPi uConsole is a handheld computer powered by a compute module. While only a handful of modules are officially supported, a community of Radxa CM5 users have been working on software to support this higher-performance module. <a href="https://linuxgizmos.com/radxa-cm5-gets-adapted-for-use-with-uconsole-pocket-terminal/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">linuxgizmos.com/radxa-cm5-gets</span><span class="invisible">-adapted-for-use-with-uconsole-pocket-terminal/</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/uConsole" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uConsole</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/RadxaCM5" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RadxaCM5</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/HandheldComputer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HandheldComputer</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Modular" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Modular</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/ClockworkPiUConsole" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ClockworkPiUConsole</span></a></p>

Jay Drake 🇨🇦 ≠51<p>A friend of mine made a board to upgrade the uConsole, expanding the GPIO and unused USB with i2c headers and a USB2 hub.</p><p>It connects to the 40-pin, 0.5mm pitch GPIO FFC/FPC connector, as well as being soldered to the unallocated USB4 pads. It splits out 3.3V I2C, providing a Qwiic connector (JST-SH) and soldering headers, and also provides a GL850-based USB2 Hub, the 4 ports accessible by soldering headers.</p><p><a href="https://github.com/scriven42/uConsole-Upgrade-Board" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">github.com/scriven42/uConsole-</span><span class="invisible">Upgrade-Board</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mefi.social/tags/raspberrypi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>raspberrypi</span></a> <a href="https://mefi.social/tags/uconsole" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uconsole</span></a> <a href="https://mefi.social/tags/stem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>stem</span></a> <a href="https://mefi.social/tags/gpio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gpio</span></a></p>

Steven 💚<p>So my <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/uConsole" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uConsole</span></a> is a Raspberry Pi CM4 on a carrier board, in a metal case.</p><p>It uses the back of the case as a heat sink in an elegant way.</p><p>Where I'm struggling heat-wise is actually the battery.</p><p>Charging at 300mA (the default) is incredibly slow, but charging at 2.2A, which is sort of the community consensus, just bakes it.</p><p>I'm not sure if I want to add a thermal pad between the batteries and case. That would reduce total heat, but maybe not be great for holding and I'm not sure if that would cause the CPU to cool faster or slower.</p><p>Alternatively, I might just keep tweaking the charge amperage until I find something I like.</p><p>I'm currently at 1.3A which seems... fine?</p>
