We are currently not accepting new orders for the Fin due to the components shortage. In addition, we cannot give a timeframe of future availability.
balenaFin v1.1 is our latest hardware revision. Read more about it here!
Download Datasheet Getting Started
The developer kit contains:
- balenaFin v1.1*
- Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3 Lite Plus (CM3+L)
- Modular DIN-Rail Case
- 12V 1.5A International PSU
- Micro USB to USB cable
*RTC coin-cell battery not included due to shipping restrictions
What's new in v1.1:
-
Dual camera capability
The DSI connector on the balenaFin has software selectable dual functionality. It can act as a camera port or as a display port, allowing for stereoscopic camera functionality
-
PoE compatibility (802.3af)
balenaFin is now PoE compatible via a HAT (not included)
-
USB headers
An additional USB port exposed through headers. This can be leveraged by custom balenaFin HATs for extended functionality
-
Single cable flashing
The micro-USB debug port can power the balenaFin for flashing with a single cable, which previously required a full power supply
- Improved operating temperature range
We’ve extended the temperature range from -20°C to +70°C for use in a wider range of environments
-
Dimmable RGB indicator LED
The board now includes a dimmable RGB indicator LED.
-
Color-coded GPIO header
The 40-pin GPIO header is now color-coded to assist with prototyping and connection of peripherals
-
Extra mounting point for the Compute Module
We have improved vibration resistance with the addition of extra mounting points for the Raspberry Pi compute module. (CM3L/CM3+L)
- Unique ID
Each unit now has a uniquely identifiable data matrix printed on the board
