PM03D Power Module

Note

• Full setup guide can be found here.
• This PM uses I2C digital signal data output, Compatible with Pixhawk 5X/6X Series.
  • NOT compatible with flight controller that uses analog PM such as the Pixhawk 6C & Mini, Pixhawk4 & Mini, pix32 v5, or Durandal flight controllers.

Overview 

PM03D provides regulated power supply as well as current consumption and battery voltage measurements via I2C digital protocol all through a 6pin 2.00mm CLIK-Mate cable. Compatible to flight controller that uses I2C power monitor such as the Pixhawk 5X and up. 

It is design for multi-rotor like the X500 V2. It has both XT-30 & XT-60 connectors preinstalled for motor ESCs and Battery, as well as two 5V BEC and a selectable 8V/12V output different kinds of peripheral devices. 

Features

•    Plug & play, no additional setup required for QGroundcontrol & Mission Planner
•    XT-30 connectors and solder pads for easy motor ESC connection
•    Onboard voltage regulators: two 5.2V & one selectable 8V/12V
•    5V/A ports for powering companion computer or peripheral device
•    Selectable 8V or 12V triple row pin header for powering peripheral device
