A1: Sorry, it is not available for the time being. The Standard power supply of TFmini-S is 5V0.1V. Q2: TFmini-S will heat up after operating for a while. Is it broken? A2: This is the normal operating condition of the product. The temperature of the chip and circuit board will slightly up after a continuous operation, which is a normal case. Q3: Can TFmini-S be connected with for Arduino or for Raspberry Pi for use? A3: Yes, it can. TFmini-S adopts serial communication protocol so that it can connect to any control board supporting serial port communication. Due to different product batches, the appearance may vary, which does not affect the use.
