3Delta Battery Pack
dpitchfo 2025-11-22 03:43:54 1103 Views4 Replies Does anyone know what pins the battery pack uses on the 3Delta? I would like to use SPI Bus and the some GPIOs but the battery pack takes up entire header. Not sure why the pins where not extended through the battery pack.
I have the same question, the dedicated UPS board installs on top of the LP3 Delta with pins going into all sockets below. Without butchering it, I'm not sure how to access the IO?
Brent Simpson Hi,
Unfortunately, when the dedicated UPS board is installed, it occupies the GPIO header and does not provide pass-through access.
So at the moment, the IO pins cannot be used at the same time. If you need SPI/GPIO access, the UPS board would need to be removed, or another power method would need to be used.
You do not have to have the battery pack hooked to the gpio connector unless it needs to be configured then disconnect it.
BrotherGreyBeard Just to clarify, the LattePanda 3 Delta itself does not have a dedicated battery connector or pins; it is powered via USB-C PD or the PH2.0 4-Pin DC input. It sounds like you are using a third-party UPS or battery shield that mounts onto the GPIO headers.
Most of these shields occupy the headers for physical stability or power delivery. You might want to check if the shield offers 'pass-through' pins.
