Lisa/M V2.0 top view

Lisa/M is a small, general purpose autopilot designed with flexibility across multiple applications in mind. Small weight and size, with (optional) integrated Aspirin IMU and full size 0.1" servo headers make the Lisa/M suitable for both fixed-wing and rotorcraft vehicles. This autopilot is based on the STM32 for improved peripherals and faster processing.

A number of tutorials are being prepared for getting started with Lisa/M:

Features

Lisa/M is based on the 64 pins STM32F105RCT6 connectivity line family processor featuring 64k of RAM and 256k of FLASH. All the pins are exposed, providing access to the complete set of the STM32 peripherals. NOTE: This MCU is different from LISA/L. Lisa/L is based on the 64 pins STM32F103RE processor featuring 64k of RAM and 512k of FLASH, which is part of the high-density performance line family.

  • STM32 microcontroller STM32F105RCT6 datasheet with 256kB flash and 64kB RAM
  • Pressure sensor BMP085
  • 7 x Analog input channels
  • 3 x Generic digital in-/out-puts
  • 2 x 3.3V TTL UART (5V tolerant)
  • 8 x Servo PPM outputs (6 w/ second I2C bus in use)
  • 1 x CAN bus
  • 1 x SPI bus
  • 1 x I2C bus (2 when using only 6 Servo PPM outputs)
  • 1 x Micro USB
  • 4 x status LEDs with attached test point
  • 10.8 grams (0.4 oz) (with Aspirin IMU mounted)
  • 9.9 grams (0.35 oz) (without Aspirin IMU mounted)

Jumper Configuration

There are a number of jumpers on Lisa/M used to configure voltage levels and power input.

The default configuration is UART3 VCC at V_IN, UART1/2/5 VCC at +3V3, with the V_SERVO servo voltage rail NOT connected to the autopilot V_IN rail, allowing one to power the autopilot and servos separately. The +5V regulator is NOT bypassed, allowing a regulated +5V on listed headers and for the CAN transceiver and I2C level shifter. The V_BAT connector is NOT connected to V_IN, so one can attach a battery voltage to the V_BAT pin to measure the battery voltage, if so desired.


Power Jumper Configuration
Jumper Bus Connection Default Description
JP1 SERVO_BUS to V_IN OPEN Connects servo header voltage rail SERVO_BUS to autopilot input voltage V_IN rail
JP2 V_BAT to V_IN OPEN Connects I2C1/CAN rail V_BAT to autopilot input voltage V_IN rail
JP3 V_IN to +5V OPEN Connects autopilot input voltage V_IN rail to autopilot +5V rail, bypassing onboard 5V supply


UART3 VCC Configuration
Jumper Bus Connection Default Description
JP6 UART3_VCC to V_IN CLOSED Connects UART3 connector VCC to autopilot input voltage V_IN rail
JP7 UART3_VCC to +3V3 OPEN Connects UART3 connector VCC to autopilot +3V3 rail

WARNING: UART3 GPS Connector is connected to V_IN, check your GPS input voltage before connecting!!!

WARNING: DO NOT CLOSE BOTH JP6 AND JP7 SIMULTANEOUSLY!!!


UART2 VCC Configuration
Jumper Bus Connection Default Description
JP4 UART2_VCC to V_IN OPEN Connects UART2 connector VCC to autopilot input voltage V_IN rail SEE WARNING BELOW
JP5 UART2_VCC to +3V3 CLOSED Connects UART2 connector VCC to autopilot +3V3 rail

WARNING: UART2 RX is NOT 5V TOLERANT. Thus, while possible to connect UART2_VCC to V_IN, DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS. Only use JP5 (the default).

WARNING: DO NOT CLOSE BOTH JP4 AND JP5 SIMULTANEOUSLY!!!


UART1 and UART5 VCC Configuration
Jumper Bus Connection Default Description
JP8 UART1&5_VCC to V_IN OPEN Connects UART1 and UART5 connector VCC to autopilot input voltage V_IN rail
JP9 UART1&5_VCC to +3V3 CLOSED Connects UART1 and UART5 connector VCC to autopilot +3V3 rail

WARNING: DO NOT CLOSE BOTH JP8 AND JP9 SIMULTANEOUSLY!!!

There are additional jumpers on the board for expert or developer configurations, please see schematic and layout for more information.

Powering the Board

LisaM warning label.png

The 3.3V regulator on Lisa/M is a MIC5209-3.3YM capable of delivering up to 500mA. While it is possible to power this regulator with up to 16V, DO NOT do this. By default, the UART3 RX pin is pulled up to the input voltage V_IN. For this reason, 5V is the maximum input voltage. Note that the UART3 GPS Connector is connected to V_IN, check your GPS input voltage before connecting. If one desires to have V_IN at a higher voltage, the jumpers should be adjusted accordingly. As noted, this regulator can handle up to 16V, though experience has shown that this regulator can become very hot in operation with high input voltages, resulting in potential thermal shutdown while in flight. Depending on the expected current draw, it is best to power this regulator with a lower voltage. 5V is the perfect choice.

The onboard 5V regulator on Lisa/M is a LP2992, a low-noise, low-dropout linear regulator capable of delivering up to 250mA. This regulator can be bypassed with JP3, connecting the autopilot V_IN bus directly to the autopilot 5V bus if, for example, one is using an external 5V regulated supply, and a higher current is needed. Unless external use of 5V is required on the ANALOG1 and ANALOG2 headers, the only 5V usage onboard is for the CAN transceiver and the I2C1 level shifter.

When measuring the supply voltage of a battery with the V_BAT pin (could be connected to V_IN through JP2), it is important to note the maximum voltage limit. The voltage divider on the board for measuring with a 3.3V ADC is --V_BAT--/\/\10k/\/\--V_BAT_MEAS--/\/\2k2/\/\--GND--. This means that the maximum allowable voltage on V_BAT is

If a higher voltage measurement is desired, another voltage divider is required off-board. Alternatively, one could modify the existing voltage divider (e.g. change 10k resistor to 22k to get 33V maximum). When checking if voltage exceeds the maximum, make sure to consider maximum battery voltage, not nominal voltage (e.g. 4.22V or so for a single lithium cell, not 3.7V nominal, so the maximum number of cells in series is 3, like a 3S LiPo pack).

Uploading Autopilot Code

If your Lisa/M has a bootloader, you can upload code via the micro-USB port.


Paparazzi USB Bootloader Upload

Luftboot is a Paparazzi-compatible bootloader for STM32-based autopilots. Depending on your vendor, your Lisa/M may already come with a bootloader, in which case you should skip to Lisa/M#Programming When Luftboot is correctly loaded, the status LEDs on the Lisa/M will cycle up and down.

Required components

  • Floss-JTAG debugger
  • Lisa/M
  • PC

Procedure

  1. Checkout Luftboot from Github
git clone https://github.com/paparazzi/luftboot.git
  1. Change directory into the luftboot/src folder
cd ./luftboot/src
  1. Build luftboot
make clean && make

If you get make: arm-none-eabi-objcopy: Command not found and have the paparazzi-multilib package installed, run

export PATH=/opt/paparazzi/arm-multilib/bin/:$PATH
  1. Flash the Lisa/M

Attach the floss-jtag unit to the PC and connect it to the Lisa/M via the black connector. Power the Lisa/M (easiest way is to connect to the PC via a micro-USB cable).

make flash DEV_SERIAL="LM2-ser"

where "ser" stands for the serial number of your Lisa/M. So for example if you have lisa/m with the serial number 020 this would be:

make clean && make flash DEV_SERIAL="LM2-020"

Connection Diagram

Boot Sequence

JTAG

JTAG can be used to upload firmware if no bootloader as present. It can also be used for debugging.

Quick JTAG Upload Guide

  1. Connect floss-jtag to Lisa via the cortex cable (little black socket)
  2. Attach the UART port on the bottom of the floss-jtag to UART2 on the Lisa.
  3. Plug in USB port of the floss jtag
  4. Plug in USB port of the Lisa
  5. Make sure your airframe uses the <target name="ap" board="lisa_m_2.0"> definition
  6. Click Build, wait until complete, then click Upload. You should see the following towards the end:

{{{ ... Info : device id = 0x10016418 Info : flash size = 256kbytes stm32x mass erase complete Info : Padding image section 1 with 7972 bytes wrote 152576 bytes from file src/paparazzi/var/Hexa_LisaL/ap/ap.elf in 7.498179s (19.871 KiB/s) Info : JTAG tap: stm32.cpu tap/device found: 0x3ba00477 (mfg: 0x23b, part: 0xba00, ver: 0x3) Info : JTAG tap: stm32.bs tap/device found: 0x06418041 (mfg: 0x020, part: 0x6418, ver: 0x0) shutdown command invoked }}}

  1. Run Flight USB-serial at the baud rate you need (default 57600 for rotorcraft)
  2. You may need to change the device to /dev/ttyUSB1, and 'Redo' the Data Link

Detailed Hardware Revision History

Changes Between v1.1 and v2.0

  • Lot's of silkscreen improvements
  • Added attributes to all parts to make the usage of bom-ex ulp possible.
  • Improved routing to allow teardropping
  • Fixed stm32f1, f2 and f4 compatibility circuit. (has to jump to ground not to 3v3)
  • Connected existing UART RX pullups to the respective connector power pins instead of 3v3. To prevent connecting 5V over IO pin to the 3v3 power rail.
  • Added pullups on all UART RX lines to prevent undesired floatation.
  • LED's are connected to 3v3 now. To make sure we don't have an issue with voltage tolerance on the gpio pins.
  • ...

Changes Between v1.0 and v1.1

  • Removed pull-ups on the USB gpio
  • Removed pull-ups on the CAN gpio
  • Connected usb_vbus to pa9 (needed by the USBotg)
  • Removed USB pullup transistor as usbotg has a built in pullup
  • Swapped UART1 with UART3 (uart1 was used for gps and pa9 was it's tx line, to be able to talk to the gps unit uart3 is a better choice, as uart1 only has an rx line now it is a better choice for spektrum RX modules)
  • Removed USART3 TX gpio from the GPIO connector and moved to the GPS connector
  • Added voltage selector jumpers to the RC RX connector; to enable powering of 3v3 or an 5v receivers
  • Replaced vertical board solution with through hole servo pin headers (easier assembly)
  • Servo connectors are in groups of two; for easier assembly
  • Servo VBUS is connected together on all four layers; for lower resistance
  • Moved LED's from under the analog2 connector; to be able to populate LED's and the connector
  • Moved the RC RX connector a bit; to prevent crashing with the jtag plug
  • Added one additional servo connector; now we have all 8 accessible through the standard servo connectors
  • Fixed servo channel labeling to start at S0 as it is the case on TWOG and Tiny autopilot boards
  • Added secondary through hole picoblade USB connector for easier routing of USB inside an airframe
  • ...

Changes Between v0.1 and v1.0

  • Switched to stm32f105 to be able to use usb and can at the same time
  • Added alternative use of the adc lines as led output
  • ...

Hardware Change Requests

  • REQ: Replace BMP085 with MS5611 (the MS5611 seems to be better in performance then the BMP but it is more expensive and seems to be more difficult to obtain.
    • A: This upgrade will be available through Aspirin v2.0 --Esden 22:54, 5 January 2012 (CET)
  • REQ: Replace 7 Pin CAN with molex with something less risky to be inserted in 7 Pin SPI in relation to powering the board via CAN molex.
  • REQ: Separate spot for external power if powered via separate battery. Realizing we can via Servo ports by Bridge J1 but still like to measure board voltage then and have a way to add power without mistakenly inject CAN Molex into SPI.
