Production (V1) Carrier Board Connectors

The NXP reference board design production version units have a slightly different connector set than what has tradionally been included in the standard V6X design and also the Holybro V6X-RT units. The key differentiators are: - No separate IO processor required. All PWMs including redundant coming from RT1176

  • Three CAN ports

  • 100BaseT1 two wire ethernet

  • Additional SE05x secure element on the base board in addition to the FMUMRT1176

    • NFC antenna interface to secure element

  • DSM and AUX RC ports in addition to "RC IN"

hashtag
Right side interfaces

They include:

  • AD@I/0 Analog and GPIO

  • CAN1, CAN2: Dual CAN-FD interfaces employing CAN-SIC (Signal Improvement) CAN phys.

  • I2C interface

hashtag
Left Side Connections

  • CAN3: (extra additional ) CAN-FD interfaces employing CAN-SIC (Signal Improvement) CAN phys.

  • T1-ETH: 100BaseT1 Two wire 100MBPS Ethernet

  • TELEM1/2/3: 3x Telemetry ports with Hardware handshaking

hashtag
Front side connectors

  • DSM: DSM RC radio input

  • NFC: NFC connection to carrier board Secure Element. (interface may be accessible even when not powered?)

  • GPS1: PX4 full GPS connector including Arming Button interface, beeper, magnetometer and RGB LED

hashtag
PWM and SBUS IBUS RC input

Typical connection for SBUS/IBUS input from RC remote controller. (note: Alternative RC interfaces possible)

hashtag
Debugger and serial console connection

Use Cognipilot Neural probe or DCD-LZ-ADAPT or similar adapter to connect a debugger or serial console to the Pixhawk-debug-full port (AKA DCD-F)

Indicator LEDs

Note the legend for the LEDs is actually shown above the 4 led holes in the enclosure.

ASEL analog input select indicator

Schematic showing alternative function. D5 = ASEL LED. J14 pin 7 'ADC1_6v6_Aux', can be selected to connect either 'ADC1_6v6' or Vdd Servo rail to the ADC to read the voltage.

USB-C interface and USB on JST-GH pins. (parallel pin connections not independent)
UART&I2C: 4th UART, no hardware handshake, I2C, NFC_GPIO included
  • Debug interface compliant to Pixhawk-DEBUG-FULL standard (aka DCD-F), including SWD and Console access.

  • GPS2: Aux GPS, reduced pinout on connector.
  • SPI: External SPI interface including two hardware chip selects, nSYNC, DRDY1/2 and SPI_nRST

    12 RC-PWM outputs are available
    Dual redundant power inputs.
    Right side view interfaces
    Use Cognipilot Neural probe or DCD-LZ-ADAPT or similar adapter to connect a debugger or serial console to the Pixhawk-debug-full port (AKA DCD-F)
    LED indicators show Ethernet connection and activity, Power supply present, and the staus of the ANALOG pin input setting. (see schematics for ASEL usage)
