Domino Pi Hardware

Overview

Domino Pi is a low-cost, compact OpenWRT-based 802.11 bgn WiFi development board based on Qualcomm/Atheros AR9331 WiSoC.

Domino Pi

The Domino Pi board extends the Domino Core module by adding the following features:

  • Integrated USB<->UART bridge for serial port (default to U-Boot / Linux console)
  • Integrated +5 V input / +3.3 V output, 2 A DC/DC power supply
  • Integrated 2.4 GHz WiFi PCB antenna
  • Integrated Jumpstart push button
  • Integrated Power and Wireless LEDs
  • Integrated 2x 28 pin, 2.54 mm pitch headers

The dual edge headers provide:

  • USB 2.0 (host or slave)
  • 2 x 10/100MB Ethernet ports
  • SPI (MOSI, MISO, CLK, CS)
  • I2S (CK, WS, SD, MCK, MICIN)
  • SLIC
  • SPDIF Output
  • JTAG (TMS, TCK, TDI, TDO)
  • 9x LEDs (also used for bootstrap settings)
  • Up to 29 x GPIOs (multiplexed with other functions above)
