Description
This official Raspberry Pi USB-C wall supply delivers 5.1V at up to 3A. Core Electronics lists this exact model in its PiicoDev Servo Driver guide as a suitable external supply, where it plugs into one of the driver’s USB-C power connectors.
Why it fits the servo-gauge build
- The PiicoDev Servo Driver requires separate high-current power through USB-C rather than through the PiicoDev bus.
- The supplier guide budgets about 0.7A for each small servo, so this 3A supply has ample capacity for the single SG90- or MG90S-size servo in the project.
- The captive USB-C cable removes the need for a separate breakout board or battery holder.
Before buying
- This version is made for Australian mains sockets. Choose a locally approved equivalent in other countries.
- Plug it into the PiicoDev Servo Driver’s USB-C power input, not into the Raspberry Pi that is already using its own supply.
- Servo power remains separate, but the driver and Raspberry Pi share ground through the PiicoDev connection.
- This is not a bare-wire LED-strip supply; use a regulated barrel-plug supply and terminal adapter for those builds.
- Specifications and availability can change, so check the retailer listing before ordering.
