3. Power supply solutions

-Control board power supply

- Option 1: The power supply is fed from the VIN port with a voltage of +9 to +24. The
input voltage is then converted by the first stage DCDC circuit to output 5V to the
back stage regulator and other 5V circuits, and the regulator outputs 3.3V to the
MCU and other 3.3V circuits.

- Option 2: Power supply from the 5V port input +5 - +12V voltage can be (high
differential voltage when the heat is also high), and then the input voltage through
the regulator output 3.3V to the MCU and other 3.3V circuit.
- Option 3: The power supply can be input from the USB port with 5V, and then the
input voltage will be outputted to the MCU and other 3.3V circuits through the
voltage regulator.
-Serial screen power supply
- On the right side of the 8pin terminal by modifying the 0Rresistor or fuse to choose
to use VIN input or 5V input, soldering in the upper two pads that is VIN, soldering in
the lower two pads that is 5V.

-VIN2 power supply

- External power supply with input 0 - 30V 2A is connected through VIN2 port and GND2 port.
4. Function Description
-uart1
- MCU chip pins are PB6, PB7
- Adjust the level of uart1 by selecting solder R301, R302, R303, R304, R327, R328

The rules are as follows (1 for solder, 0 for no solder).

- TTL level communication baud rate up to 4.5Mbit/s

- RS232 level communication baud rate can support up to 250Kbit/s

uart1 is connected to external devices via 8pin terminals and is mainly used to communicate with
serial screens.
-uart2
- MCU chip pins are PA2, PA3
- Adjust the level of uart2 by selecting solder R305, R306, R307, R308, R311, R312

The rules are as follows (1 for solder, 0 for no solder).

- TTL level communication baud rate up to 4.5Mbit/s

- RS232 level communication baud rate can support up to 250Kbit/s
uart2 is connected to external devices via RXD and TXD in the side terminals

-uart3
- MCU chip pins are PB10, PB11, 485 signal direction control pin is PA10
- Switch to uart3 or I2C by selecting solder R111, R112, R109, R110

The rules are as follows (1 for solder, 0 for no solder).

- RS485 level only, with 120R matching resistor, with TVS tube to prevent surge voltage,
communication baud rate can support up to 250Kbit/s

uart3 is connected to external devices via 485A and 485B in the side terminals
-CAN

-SPI
- MCU chip pins are PA15, PB3, PB4, PB5
- Switch between using SPI or digital input and output signals by selecting solder
R113, R114, R1115, R116, R117, R118, R119, R120

The rules are as follows (1 for solder, 0 for no solder).

-Multiplexed with uart3, modify the rules refer to uart3 function introduction.

-DIGITAL OUT
- MCU chip pins are PB12, PB13, PB14, PB15, PB3 (multiplexed), PA15 (multiplexed)
-Digital signal output for programmable control
-with electrostatic protection
-First of all, power supply 2 will be connected to VIN2 port and GND2 port, (version
1.2 needs GND to connect to GND2) and then freely control the output level of OUT1,
OUT2, OUT3, OUT4, OUT5, OUT6 through software programming, when MCU control
pin output high level when the led light on the same road, while OUT output high
level equal to VIN2, when MCU control pin output low level, the led lights off, while
OUT output low level equal to GND2

-MCU control pins correspond to the output ports as follows.

-DIGITAL IN
- MCU chip pins are PA4, PA5, PA6, PB1, PB4 (multiplexed), PB5 (multiplexed)
-Digital signal input for programmable control
-First, connect power supply 2 to VIN2 port and GND2 port, then read the input
levels of IN1, IN2, IN3, IN4, IN5, IN6 through software programming (if there is no
access to power supply 2 all digital input pins corresponding to the MCU terminal
pins default to pull-up, when access to power supply 2 MCU terminal pins default to
pull-down), when IN input high level, the led on the same road When IN input is high,
the leds on the same road will light up, and the MCU pins on the same road will pull
up, when IN input is low, the leds on the same road will go out, and the MCU pins on
the same road will pull down.

-The input ports correspond to the MCU input pins as follows.
