Headers

H1 - 3.3V (Rev X1-X3)

  • Install to power 3.3V from regulator

H1 - 3.3V source select

  • 1-2 power from 5V to 3.3V regulator
  • 2-3 Power from Blue Pill board 3.3V regulator

H2 - 5V Jumper (Rev X1-X3)

  • Install to connect J4 and J1 5V

H2 - 5V Power Source (Rev 4 or higher)

  • T-shaped header
  • Up - Power 5V from BluePill Hub USB power
  • Left - Power 5V from DC Jack
  • Down - Power 5V from FTDI 5V

H3, H4, H5, H6 - I2C Power

  • Select the power to the I2C interface
  • Install in one of the two positions to power external I2C interface from the board
  • Remove if power comes in from external I2C interface
  1. 3.3V
  2. 5V

H7 - 3.3V from Blue Pill module 3.3V regulator

  • Install = power on-board 3.3V circuitry from regulator on Blue Pill module
    • H8 should not be installed if H7 is installed

H8 - Power from FTDI

  • 1-2 = 3.3V from FTDI (don't ever do this)
  • 2-3 = 5V from FTDI (probably don't do this)
  • H7 should not be installed if H8 is installed

H9 - Hub Chip Address

  • Select the address of the PCA9544A I2C hub

Switches

SW1 - Reset Switch

  • Press to reset Blue Pill board

SW2 - Switch on/off J1, J4 power source
