I am building a self contained DIY Streamer using a Raspberry Pi running Volumio paired with a HiFiBerry DAC2 Pro and would like have it run off a linear powersupply. Now what I'm looking for is a powersupply that:
My goal is to be able to powered everything on/off via that switch and have possibly power the DAC and Step-down converter + IR sensor directly connected to the switch rather than through the Pi. I've found that once I connect the Step-Down converter to the DAC's 5v out I start to get low voltage readings on the PI when powering everything with Micro USB.
I'd love suggestions on what kinds of kits there are that might meet my needs. If you have any questions please let me know.
- Is a bit more powerful than the Pi USB-C powersupply (27 watts, 5v, 2.5A) so it can drive a:
- Waveshare 7.9" widescreen HDMI display
- HiFiBerry Dac2 Pro
- Solid State Drive (size and make TBD, might re-use one of the ones I have sitting around)
- Buck step-down converter used for TSOP38238 IR Receiver
- Can be fit inside a Galaxy 1GX283
- On off switch
- Ethernet Extension
- Various ribbon cables
- Micro B Right Angle Plug Down and Micro B Right Angle Plug Up adapters
- HDMI Right Angle R Bendand HDMI Straight Plug adapters
- Micro SD to Micro SD Card Male to Female Flexible Extender

You can try the Salas L adapter - https://www.diyaudio.com/community/threads/l-adapter.336685/
I have been using on my DIY streamer since few years now very good.

I use this board- https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/27442273...4B9QYZ&hash=item3fe4de9781:g:15wAAOSwJ5xgtM8j
I changed one of the resistors on each regulator to change the voltage from 24v to 5v. By using 4 regulators you can isolate your different boards from each other. Hope that helps.

Thanks! It does indeed!
I have a friend who had an extra twisted pear centaur so we are gonna try to start with that. Might need two or even one of the Placid HD boards but who knows.
I’m a bit new on this so taking my time and learning as I go.
