Hardware Revision History
Version # | Release Date | Release Notes |

v1.00 | 07/2013 | Initial release of Apogee |
Detailed Features
SDIO (MicroSD card)
- available in latest master (v5.1_devel-780-g6ff0fc9)
- hi-cap power designed to give enough time to cleanly save buffer and close file(s) when power outage detected
- USB-storage mode when plugging an USB cable after startup
6 or 9 DOF IMU
Apogee v1.00 PCB offer two Invensense IMU chip options:
- MPU-6050 : 6 DOF, 3 axis Accelerometer + 3 axis Gyroscope
- MPU-9150 : 9 DOF, 3 axis Accelerometer + 3 axis Gyroscope + 3 axis Magnetometer
USB Modes
- usb plugged before autopilot is powered : enter DFU mode to be flashed
- usb plugged after autopilot is powered : stop ap task, enter usb storage mode to made sdcard content easily avalaible, after the host has mounted;copied;dismounted storage;unplugged usb, ap restart
SWD: Serial Wire Debug
permits flash and source level debugging via swd part of cheap discovery card, or via more capable, fastest, more expensive probe like black magic probe
R/C Serial
In addition to the classic PPM input, that mostly require receiver modification, one pin of the R/C connector is routed to the MCU UART2 receive input through a controlled inverter.
This new feature allow direct connection (3 pin) of several brand off-the-shelf receivers without hardware modification or external encoder board.
- RX2_POL(PB13) = 0 => R/C serial (Rx2) is non-inverted : allow use standard polarity serial receivers (Spektrum, FlyElectric...)
- RX2_POL(PB13) = 1 => R/C serial (Rx2) is inverted : allow use of S.BUS protocol compatible receivers (Futaba, FrSky,...)
(see R/C Receivers and Radios page for serial compatible receiver)
Real Time Clock
supercap powered rtc, permit to associate correct time and date on sdcard log files, when ap is unpowered between flights
Power Switch
5V power output pin on AUX connector ("5Vaux",#2) can be switched ON and OFF on demand using APSW (MCU GPIO output PB12).
- APSW = 0 => 5V Aux OFF
- APSW = 1 => 5V Aux ON (default)
The internal switch TPS2051B is designed to withstand 500mA continuous current and is short-circuit and thermally protected.
(see TPS2051B datasheet for recommended operation conditions)

Programming
Apogee autopilot can reprogrammed in two different ways:
- using the MCU native (embedded in rom) DFU USB bootloader over the on-board USB header (so pre-loading an "external" bootloader is useless)
- required hardware : usb cable with usb-mini connector
- required software : dfu_util tool (present in ubuntu repository)
- using the SWD (Serial Wire Debug) connector
- required hardware : usb cable with usb-mini connector, molex to 2.54mm pitch pin cable, swd part of a cheap stm32 evaluation board (any discovery board, start @ 8$)
- required software : st_flash and st_util, have to be compiled from source (https://github.com/texane/stlink)
