PiKVM-A3 Pikvm (without Case and PSU) for Raspberry Pi 4 KVM Over IP HDMI CSI Supports PiKVM V3

Description:
PiKVM-A3 is a member of the PiKVM family, which supports for Raspberry Pi 4 with a matching metal case.

PiKVM is a very powerful and open source software which allows for a remote connection via your Raspberry Pi to turn on/off or restart your computer, configure the UEFI/BIOS, and even reinstall the OS using the virtual CD-ROM or flash drive. You can use your remote keyboard and mouse or software platform which can simulate a keyboard, a mouse and a monitor, which are then presented in a web browser as if you were working on a remote system directly. It's true hardware-level access with no dependency on any remote ports, protocols or services!

Features:
- Designed especially for PiKVM (Raspberry Pi based KVM over IP)
- For use with Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 1GB/2GB/4GB/8GB
- Fully compatible with PiKVM OS (refer to user manual)
- Only compatible with PiKVM V3 OS, NOT support V4
- Control a server and computer using a web browser
- HDMI Full HD acquisition based on the TC358743 chip
- OTG Keyboard & mouse; mass storage drive emulation
- Hardware real time clock (RTC) with CR1220 coin battery socket (battery is not included)
- Equipped with solid state relays to protect RPi GPIO pins from computer and ESD spikes
- ATX control via RJ45 connector switch the machine on or off, reset it, and monitor the status of HDD LED & power LED remotely
- Reserves the 10pin SH1.0 connector on X630-A3 for future I2S HDMI audio support

Connection Diagram:
1. The PiKVM-A3 is composed of follow parts:

- X630 HDMI to MIPI CSI-2 Module (for video acquisition)
- X630-A3 Expansion Board (for ethernet, cooling, RTC, power in, etc.)
- X630-A5 Adapter Board (it is installed inside a PC case, and it connects the computer motherboard and IO panel of PC case)
- 0.96" OLED (for display; resolution: 128x64 pixels)
- Ethernet Cable (TIA/EIA-568.B connection, and it's ATX control signal cable)
- KVM-A3 Case (Optional part. This case is ONLY compatible with Raspberry Pi 4 and PiKVM-A3 Kit. Not for Raspberry Pi 3 B+/3B)

Attention:
- Please use the supplied Type-C to USB 2.0 data cable and USB-C to USB-A data cable (for keyboard and mouse emulation). Using other data cables might cause instability or damage to the host PC or Raspberry Pi.
- Please make sure to disconnect the 5V connection between the Raspberry Pi and the host to prevent back powering from causing instability or damage to the host or the Raspberry Pi.
- Some PC cases may not have an HDMI port, you need to use a VGA/DVI to HDMI adapter to transfer the HDMI port.
