Input power
- Wide input voltage range
- 5-23V (for 3.3V Arduino Pro Mini)
- 7-23V (for 5V Arduino Pro Mini)
- 2.1mm DC Power Connector Jack
- RF filter into Switching regulator board
- 2nd RF filter into HID card
- Mini360 Switching Mode Power Supply
- About $1
- Jumper to use raw input and not populate the Mini360
- Uses the inputs jack as RAW power into the Arduino Pro Mini
- 3.35-12 V (3.3V model) or 5-12 V (5V model)
I/O Boards
- Arduino pins brought to 2x13 header
- I/O pins are on 0.1" grid for easier prototyping
- P2-P13, A0-A3
- A4/A5 or SDA/SCL
- Easily designed
- 3 BNC or SMA connectors
- Brought to headers
- DB25 pass-through
- Arduino pins brought to 2x13 header
Connectors
J2 - On HID =
J3 - On base board
J5 - Arduino Pins
J9 - Use Raw Power
