Raspberry Pi GPIO flip

HW Rev 1: 2021-03-22

There are four board types, each with mount spacing that exactly matches that of a Raspberry Pi Zero. These boards implement the following transformations:

  • Pi GPIO Flip A - Horizontal Flip
    If the Pi GPIO header is designed for the Pi to be facing down, this board allows you to mount the Pi facing down.


  • Pi GPIO Flip B - Horizontal Shift
    This board simply moves the Pi out a small distance from the original GPIO header location. It might allow you to attach using headers from a different side of the Raspberry Pi.


  • Pi GPIO Flip C - Vertical Flip
    This board allows you to vertically flip the Raspberry Pi. For example, if it is face up with the microSD facing you, with this board you will be able to mount the Pi face down with the microSD facing away from you.


  • Pi GPIO Flip D - Horizontal Shift
    This board allows you to rotate the Raspberry Pi 180 degrees. For example, if the Pi is face up with the microSD facing you, with this board you will be able to mount the Pi face up with the microSD facing away from you.
