Atomic Pi - Simple low profile case

thingiverse

Human: Simple case design for the "Atomic Pi" single board computer. Because of the official model's placement issues with the bottom power connector, I created this version to fit better. You can add bevels and extra holes for electrical access to GPIOs, etc., making it simple and suitable only for computing purposes. Power Connector Placement: Inside There is ample space on the bottom for a power connector. Bent Dupont jumper cables work well in this scenario. The wires have enough room on the side next to the SBC to reach the top area. In my version, I chose to solder wires directly onto the top. Power Connector Placement: Outside A 5mm diameter hole is provided for a power socket. HDMI Port: The cutout is larger than usual due to some HDMI connectors being bigger. CMOS Reset Button: I had to perform a CMOS reset after failing to boot from external EFI files. This feature allows you to access the button with a spiky tool. SD Card Slot: It's positioned underneath to prevent accidental ejection, but it can be ejected with a tool or a longer nail. Heat Sink Enclosure: The heat sink is safely enclosed and should not pose any issues until temperatures rise significantly. Screw Requirements: Only 4x M3x30 screws are needed (20mm or 40mm length may also work). Printing Instructions: This model has no infill holes. Use 100% to support the screw areas, and a shell of at least 1mm for stability. The model's shell is approximately 2mm and should be solid. Consider using brim if necessary; my corners lifted slightly without it. No supports are needed as there are no overhangs. PLA worked well for me.
