These features will definitely be helpful to some people. It also has 3 hardware serial ports, so you could connect more serial devices without the need for USB to serial converters. Because Orange Pi Zero 2 uses a WiFi antenna with u.FL connector, you could switch to a high gain antenna if you need to work with bad reception, or you could route the antenna outside the case if you mount the Orange Pi in a metal enclosure.

The 26 pin header matches Raspberry Pi, but you can get access to more interfaces with pinmuxing (see pinout here). We rarely use any shields for 3D printers, but they may be important to some people. It also features a smaller GPIO header: 26-pin vs. You will have to flash the Orange Pi OS image and install the software you want from scratch. It means the SD card from Raspberry Pi will not work on the Orange Pi. Orange Pi has a lot of differences, and even though it features the same ARM CPU cores as RPi Zero 2, it is not binary compatible with Raspberry Pi. The performance and price also fit right in the middle between RPi Zero 2 and RPi 4. It’s sized in between RPi Zero and a regular Raspberry Pi. Orange Pi Zero 2 comes in a different form factor than any Raspberry Pi.

I got my hands on an alternative board called Orange Pi Zero 2, and I’m going to test how it compares to Raspberry Pi Zero 2 and Raspberry Pi 4. Raspberry Pi is great, and it used to be affordable, but nowadays, due to chip shortage and supply chain issues, its price has skyrocketed, and even if you’re willing to pay it, they are out of stock most of the time. Here are the instructions for the TF Card setup – read them carefully and follow them exactly.If you want to use Klipper firmware on your 3D printer, you typically add a single board computer (SBC) like Raspberry Pi.

Here are the instructions for the TF Card setup – read them carefully and follow them exactly. It's very easy to accidentally write to the wrong drive!! As always when writing images, only have your main hard drive running and one USB device (the card in the card reader) attached. After installation and then starting the program (Run as Administrator) for the first time, remember to click the 'Update Version' button (in the top right of the window) before doing any TF card burning. To get the PhoenixCard software, try any of these links. Note: do not try using TF Formatter & Win32 Disk Imager on any Android image – this method just won't work! Versions for other OSs such as Linux are temporarily unavailable - sorry.) Some software called PhoenixCard is needed for the TF Card setup for all Android images.
