THIS PAGE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION AND DOES NOT CONTAIN ACCURATE INFORMATION FOR LISA/M 2.0!!!!!!!!!

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.

4 layers PCB design

with mounted IMU has the following additional sensors on board:

3 Axis Gyroscope
3 Axis Accelerometer
3 Axis Magnetometer

The pressure sensor is mounted directly on the board as this sensor is not provided by Aspirin (v0.1 - v1.1). Except for a GPS unit you have all necessary sensors for full attitude and altitude stabilization in an extremely small package.

Jumper Configuration

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

NEED TABLES AND DESCRIPTION OF JUMPER CONFIGURATION.

Powering the Board

The 3.3V regulator on Lisa/M is a MIC5209-3.3YM capable of sourcing up to 500mA. While it is possible to power this regulator with up to 16V, experience has shown that this regulator can become very hot in operation with high input voltages, resulting in potential thermal shutdown while in flight and likely a crash. Depending on the expected current draw, it is best to power this regulator with a lower voltage (5V has been fine).

R/C Receivers

There is Spektrum parser available already, enabling the direct use of 1 or 2 Spektrum satellite receivers.

Also UART pins can be used as general purpose I/O to be used for PPM input. Additionally PPM encoder can be used to avoid receiver hardware modification.

Paparazzi USB Bootloader Upload

There is currently not a bootloader for STM32-based autopilots. Work is underway to remedy this, see Luftboot on GitHub. Right now, one must use JTAG to load firmware to the board.

JTAG

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

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.
