The Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ enables the connection of M.2 peripherals such as
NVMe drives and AI accelerators to the PCIe 2.0 interface of the Raspberry Pi 5 and supports
(up to 500 MB/s) data transfer to and from NVMe drives and other PCIe accessories.

The single-lane PCI Express 2.0 interface of the Raspberry Pi 5 is located on a 16-pin 0.5 m pitch
The M.2 HAT+ M Key is a mechanical adapter card that converts between this
between this connector and a subset of the M.2 standard. It supports devices that use
the M.2 M Key Edge connector in the 2230 and 2242 form factors. It is capable of supplying
up to 3A to connected M.2 devices.

Features:

– Supports single-lane PCIe 2.0 interface
(500 MB/s peak transfer rate)
– Supports devices that use the M.2 M key edge connector
– Supports devices with the 2230 or 2242 form factor
– Can supply up to 3A to connected M.2 devices – Supports devices with the 2230 or 2242 form factor – Can supply up to 3A to connected M.2 devices.devices with up to 3 A
– Includes power and activity LEDs
– Complies with Raspberry Pi HAT+ specification
– Supplied with ribbon cable, 16mm stacking header, threaded
spacers and screws, and double flange thumbscrew to
to secure and support the M.2Peripherals

The Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ is compliant with the Raspberry Pi HAT+ specification and is
automatically recognised by the latest Raspberry Pi software/firmware. It is supplied with a 16mm
stacking header and threaded standoffs so that it can be fitted to a Raspberry Pi 5 with the
Raspberry Pi Active Cooler.
