Everything you need from your Controller Module:

  • POWER : Powerful 32-bit ARM Cortex M4F microcontroller — based on the Microchip Atmel ATSAMD51N20 w/1MB of program flash and 256K of RAM at 120 MHz Core clock

  • INDUSTRIAL GRADE : All industrial spec parts for reliable operation in demanding applications

  • CONNECTIVITY : USB interface for connecting to your development PC or Laptop computer for programming; provides virtual com port for CircuitPython console and UART, and mass storage filesystem interface to the 16MB on-board flash for programs and data storage; can additionally be used in your application 

  • CONTROL & INTERFACING : RS485, I2C, WIFI : Latching I2C interface connector on-board for sensors, controllers, displays, keypads, etc, on this common bus; latching RS485 interface connector on-board, a UART-style differential bus with high noise immunity common in manufacturing and control automation applications; 12-pin AUX expansion socket on-board and WIFI-enabled using the ubiquitous and inexpensive ESP-01S module and general expansion capability; additionally, VINA-D51 brings out Digital I/O, UARTs, I2C, SPI, A/D, DAC, USB, and many other useful control and interfacing capabilities to the edge

  • DEVELOPMENT & DEBUG : CircuitPython and UF2 Bootloader pre-installed to get started developing right away with just a laptop or PC and a text editor; no extra software or IDEs to install and no extra hardware to purchase; and with a standard ARM Cortex SWD debug header on-board, low level programming in C/C++ with source-level, single-step debugging utilizing a hardware programmer like the Segger J-Link

  • DATA STORAGE : Large 16 MB of on-board flash filesystem storage space for your programs and data presented as an external drive on your development workstation; soldered directly to the board, this flash storage won’t suffer from corrosion or vibration in harsh environments like SD-Card type storage are prone

  • FLEX VOLTAGE : Robust power section with wide voltage input range for flexible and reliable operation, and enough headroom to supply power to other devices - perhaps even your whole application board - up to about 3 amps; incorporates industrial grade Molex latch-lock connector that will not vibrate loose even in the most demanding applications

Overview

The VINA-D51 is a powerful, robust, pluggable control module designed for modular control applications. Built with all-industrial grade components and features, it is well-suited for a wide variety of automation and control requirements, including harsh environments.

The VINA-D51 Control Module saves time and money by providing a proven, modular design, that enables custom application-specific solutions to move from the drawing board to the finished product quickly.

VINA-D51 enables you to develop your application-specific board independently of the controller section. This simplifies your design, saves CAD time during the design phase, reduces errors that can cost weeks of PCB re-manufacture to correct, and saves debug time during the prototype and testing phases. By starting with VINA-D51, you start from a known-good foundation, reducing complexity and risk.

Incorporate the VINA-D51 in your designs over and over again and multiply your savings. Useful for custom applications, one-off projects, breadboarded prototypes, and even standalone projects. VINA-D51 has all of the common essentials built-in, on-board.

To get you started even more quickly, BDMICRO provides the Autodesk Eagle CAD part for VINA-D51. Getting started is as easy as downloading the part and adding it to your application specific design, allowing you to focus on your custom application's needs, with all the right connectors, headers, and other circuitry needed for your project solution.

Capable of running standalone, modular piggy back on application-specific boards, or breadboarded, the VINA-D51 is a great choice for your next project.

See the ATSAMD51N20A Datasheet for detailed information on the MCU's capabilities.
