Wiring

There will be (16) 14-pin headers for vial controls. The pinout is as follows:

*Pin* *Function* *Module No*
1 Spare_A + 7
2 Spare_A - 7
3 Spare_B + 6
4 Spare_B - 6
5 PhotoDiode + 5
6 PhotoDiode - 5
7 LED + 4
8 LED - 4
9 TempSensor + 3
10 TempSensor - 3
11 Heater + 2
12 Heater - 2
13 Motor + 1
14 Motor - 1

There will be (7) sites for plug-in Analog or PWM boards. Each plug-in module will have two 25-pin headers with pinout given below. In addition there are two 10-pin headers on the PWM boards to supply 24V power.

There will be four sites for ARM processor modules (SparkFun? SAM D21 mini breakout) with 24 pins each. Wiring to the analog/PWM sites will be as shown in the block diagram. Below is the pin wiring for the processor sites. Note that the odd numbering matches that on the SparkFun? schematic.

Power

  • Samtec "Power Mate" Family (~10A/pin)
    • PMSS series cables, mates with IPBT connectors
  • Molex ultra-fit (~10A/pin)
    • WM11876-ND (header)
    • WM11642-ND (plug)
