PBX-BB


Model: PBX-BB BeagleBone Breakout Board

Breakout Board Specs:

  • BeagleBone or BeagleBone Black Compatible
  • Screw Terminals or 5x PBX-Headers
  • RF Isolated Inouts and Outputs
  • 15 Outputs and 5 Inputs
  • Integrated 5V/2A Logic Supply Regulator
  • USB Powered BeagleBone

Description:

The PBX-BB is the new CNC breakout board for the BeagleBone. It works perfectly with Charles Steinkuehler's Beaglebone port of LinuxCNC. It features 15 total outputs and 5 inputs, all software mappable to whichever signals you need. The PBX-BB features the same RF isolation circuitry found on the popular PBX-RF, protecting the Beaglebones' sensitive 1.8V and 3.3V circuitry from potentially damaging noise and spikes that can come from high voltage stepper motor drives.

The PBX-BB has 5x PBX-Headers (Figure 1) for easy connections to our stepper drivers and relay boards. Additional signals are present on the screw terminals for driving up to 5 motors and 4 relays.

New on the PBX-BB is a 5V/2A switching regulator that accepts voltages up to 76VDC. The efficiency of a switching regulator reduces heat. The 5V rail is bussed out to the PBX-Headers just like our other breakout boards, allowing you to drive the logic supply of the drivers from a single power source.
