=== Power Supply ===
=== Power Supply ===
There are several ways to power the Tawaki board. '''CAUTION!''' use only one of these sources at a time:
*with a battery or any power source that delivers between 6 and 17V
*by connecting it to a USB port
*with a power source that delivers a regulated, stable 5V
Each of these methods is detailed below.


==== Powering using battery/external source soldered on battery pads ====
==== Powering using battery/external source soldered onto battery pads ====


[[Image:Tawaki_v100_battery_pads_powering.png|600px|Tawaki v1.00 External source on GND & VBAT pads]]<br>
[[Image:Tawaki_v100_battery_pads_powering.png|600px|Tawaki v1.00 External source onto GND & VBAT pads]]<br><br>
[[Image:Tawaki_v100_servo_b_vbat_source.png|400px|Tawaki v1.00 Servos b header Vbat source for payload]]
This is the basic setup: the Tawaki then generates all the internal power sources needed by its components. Additionally, the board provides +5V and +3.3V power sources through dedicated ports for external payload.<br>
Limitations:
*input power source range: 6-17V (2-4 Lipo cells)
*maximum current usable by both Tawaki and payload on the +5V: I(5V)<4A
*maximum current usable for payload on the +3.3V: I(3.3V)<3A
*maximum total current usable: 4A
[[Image:Tawaki_v100_servo_b_vbat_source.png|400px|Tawaki v1.00 Servos b header Vbat source for payload]]<br><br>
With this setup, the external power source is available on the “VBAT” pin of the “Servos B” header - but only if solder bridge JP1 is jumped (turned ON) with a small blob of solder.<br>
Limitation:
*maximum current used on the “VBAT” pin must be less than 1A (because of the header’s specifications)


==== Powering using battery/external source connected on "Servos b" header ====
==== Powering using battery/external source connected on "Servos B" header ====


[[Image:Tawaki_v100_servo_b_header_powering.png|500px|Tawaki v1.00 External source on Servo b header]]
[[Image:Tawaki_v100_servo_b_header_powering.png|500px|Tawaki v1.00 External source on Servo b header]]<br><br>
With this setup, the “GND”(-) and “VBAT”(+) pins of the “Servos B” header are used as the main entry ports for the external power source - but only if solder bridge JP1 is jumped (turned ON) with a small blob of solder. This can be interesting when the ESC already delivers the external power source voltage through its command and control signals (as is frequently the case on multi-rotors).<br>
Limitations: <br>
*input power source range: 6-17V (2-4 Lipo cells)
*maximum total current usable: 1A (because of the header’s specifications)


==== Powering using USB Micro-B only ("Development Board" mode) ====
==== Powering using USB Micro-B only ====


[[Image:Tawaki_v100_Micro-B_USB_powering.png|800px|Tawaki v1.00 USB Micro-B powering]]
[[Image:Tawaki_v100_Micro-B_USB_powering.png|1000px|Tawaki v1.00 USB Micro-B powering]]<br><br>
It is possible to power the Tawaki with only a host computer, through the USB Micro-B port. This setup allows to power the board and all its components, while at the same time flashing it.<br>
In this case, the "VBUS" pin of the "USB" header must be connected to the "+5V" pin of any header that is equipped with one - with the exception of the "5Vaux" pin of the "AUX a" header.<br>
Limitation:<br>
*the host computer must be capable of providing the current needed for: powering the board, and any potential external payload. With a maximum limit of 1A (because of the header’s specifications)<br>
''Note: with this setup, the voltage of the external power source (VBAT) obviously cannot be measured by the micro-controller (MCU).''


==== Powering using external 5V source ====
==== Powering using external 5V source ====


[[Image:Tawaki_v100_external_5V_powering.png|800px|Tawaki v1.00 External 5V Source]]
[[Image:Tawaki_v100_external_5V_powering.png|800px|Tawaki v1.00 External 5V Source]]<br><br>
In some cases the external power source is out of range and cannot be used, but an external 5V power source is available (for example provided by the ESC). In this case, the external 5V power source must be connected to the "+5V" and "GND" pins of any header that are equipped with them - with the exception of the "5Vaux" pin of the "AUX a" header.<br>
Limitations:<br>
*voltage range: 4-6V
*the external 5V power source must be capable of providing the current needed for: powering the board, and any potential external payload. With a maximum limit of 1A (because of the headers' specifications)
* the "VBUS" pin of the "USB" header must not be connected to the "+5V" pin of any header
''Note: with this setup, the voltage of the external power source (VBAT) obviously cannot be measured by the micro-controller (MCU).''


=== USB Modes ===
=== USB Modes ===
==== Flash (DFU) mode ====
In this configuration, ''BOOT'' pin is connected to ''VBUS'' pin (#4 & #5 "USB" header).<br>
If USB cable is plugged and autopilot is not powered or USB cable plugged before autopilot is powered, board enter DFU mode and is ready to be flashed.<br>
[[Image:Tawaki_v100_USB_mode_DFU.png|600px|Tawaki v1.00 USB DFU/Flash mode]]<br>
==== USB Storage mode ====
In this configuration, ''BOOT'' pin is connected to ''VBUS'' pin (#4 & #5 "USB" header).<br>
If USB cable is plugged after autopilot is powered, autopilot task is stopped and board enters in USB storage mode to make SDcard content easily available by host as for an USB Pendrive. When unmounted and unplugged, autopilot task restart.

Detailed Features

Power Supply

There are several ways to power the Tawaki board. CAUTION! use only one of these sources at a time:

  • with a battery or any power source that delivers between 6 and 17V
  • by connecting it to a USB port
  • with a power source that delivers a regulated, stable 5V

Each of these methods is detailed below.

Powering using battery/external source soldered onto battery pads

Tawaki v1.00 External source onto GND & VBAT pads

This is the basic setup: the Tawaki then generates all the internal power sources needed by its components. Additionally, the board provides +5V and +3.3V power sources through dedicated ports for external payload.
Limitations:

  • input power source range: 6-17V (2-4 Lipo cells)
  • maximum current usable by both Tawaki and payload on the +5V: I(5V)<4A
  • maximum current usable for payload on the +3.3V: I(3.3V)<3A
  • maximum total current usable: 4A

Tawaki v1.00 Servos b header Vbat source for payload

With this setup, the external power source is available on the “VBAT” pin of the “Servos B” header - but only if solder bridge JP1 is jumped (turned ON) with a small blob of solder.
Limitation:

  • maximum current used on the “VBAT” pin must be less than 1A (because of the header’s specifications)

Powering using battery/external source connected on "Servos B" header

Tawaki v1.00 External source on Servo b header

With this setup, the “GND”(-) and “VBAT”(+) pins of the “Servos B” header are used as the main entry ports for the external power source - but only if solder bridge JP1 is jumped (turned ON) with a small blob of solder. This can be interesting when the ESC already delivers the external power source voltage through its command and control signals (as is frequently the case on multi-rotors).
Limitations:

  • input power source range: 6-17V (2-4 Lipo cells)
  • maximum total current usable: 1A (because of the header’s specifications)

Powering using USB Micro-B only

Tawaki v1.00 USB Micro-B powering

It is possible to power the Tawaki with only a host computer, through the USB Micro-B port. This setup allows to power the board and all its components, while at the same time flashing it.
In this case, the "VBUS" pin of the "USB" header must be connected to the "+5V" pin of any header that is equipped with one - with the exception of the "5Vaux" pin of the "AUX a" header.
Limitation:

  • the host computer must be capable of providing the current needed for: powering the board, and any potential external payload. With a maximum limit of 1A (because of the header’s specifications)

Note: with this setup, the voltage of the external power source (VBAT) obviously cannot be measured by the micro-controller (MCU).

Powering using external 5V source

Tawaki v1.00 External 5V Source

In some cases the external power source is out of range and cannot be used, but an external 5V power source is available (for example provided by the ESC). In this case, the external 5V power source must be connected to the "+5V" and "GND" pins of any header that are equipped with them - with the exception of the "5Vaux" pin of the "AUX a" header.
Limitations:

  • voltage range: 4-6V
  • the external 5V power source must be capable of providing the current needed for: powering the board, and any potential external payload. With a maximum limit of 1A (because of the headers' specifications)
  • the "VBUS" pin of the "USB" header must not be connected to the "+5V" pin of any header

Note: with this setup, the voltage of the external power source (VBAT) obviously cannot be measured by the micro-controller (MCU).

USB Modes

Flash (DFU) mode

In this configuration, BOOT pin is connected to VBUS pin (#4 & #5 "USB" header).
If USB cable is plugged and autopilot is not powered or USB cable plugged before autopilot is powered, board enter DFU mode and is ready to be flashed.

Tawaki v1.00 USB DFU/Flash mode

USB Storage mode

In this configuration, BOOT pin is connected to VBUS pin (#4 & #5 "USB" header).
If USB cable is plugged after autopilot is powered, autopilot task is stopped and board enters in USB storage mode to make SDcard content easily available by host as for an USB Pendrive. When unmounted and unplugged, autopilot task restart.

Full Speed USB mode
