Pi2Grover - Raspberry Pi to Grove Connector Interface Board
To make comments or ask questions, please go to the Product Support Forum on SwitchDoc.com.
The Pi2Grover board provides 15 Grove connectors for your prototyping needs. 10 Grove Digital, 4 Grove I2C, and one Grove UART. Fast prototyping with many, many Grove devices available. No software drivers required. You are right next to the hardware. Just where you want to be. Learn what Grove Connecters are here in our tutorial.
It plugs right into your Raspberry Pi with a special connector that allows you to plug boards or hats on top of the Grove board. And you know, we like hats at SwitchDoc Labs. Especially Fedora hats!

When I finally understood what SwitchDoc was doing with the Pi2Grover board and Grove connectors during the kickstarter, I was very pleased. I bought every Grove sensor I could find (well, not all - there are hundreds) and I'm pleased how fast I can build things and test concepts quickly...-Carroll

Theory of Operation
The Pi2Grover board provides buffered connections and voltage translation between the Raspberry Pi pins and external Grove modules. Pi2Grover provides bi-directional voltage translation from the Raspberry Pi (3.3V) to 5V. The board is “transparent” to any software, so existing drivers for modules will work with no translation required. Voltage translation for I2C Bus is also supported by the Pi2Grover board.
