Nitehawk LDO toolboard featuring RP2040 MCU TMC2209 drive ADXL345 accelerometer and USB port Voron StealthBurner
Nitehawk-36 Toolboard / Nitehawk-SB Tool board
Introduction:
Nitehawk-36 by LDO is a tool board featuring RP2040 MCU, TMC2209 stepper drive, ADXL345 accelerometer, and USB port. Nitehawk-36's USB based connection method allows for a simple and easy setup compared to other CAN tool boards. The USB connnection also allows for a secondary USB port to connect your nozzle webcam or eddy current probe.
Features:
01.Convenient wiring
No more complicated and error prone breakout cables - nitehawk only requires 24V power and a USB connector to the RPI host.
02.USB Klipper connection
No additional software or hardware setup compared to CAN.
03.Secondary USB port
An onboard USB port allows you to connect a second USB device to your toolhead without running an additional umbilical cable.
04.Custom toolhead cable
A single combined USB data and power cable rated for drag chain use, but can also be used in umbilical configuration.
05.Convenient Input Shaping
Run input shaper calibration at anytime with an onboard accelerometer.
06.Tacho enabled HEF
The hotend fan port is three pin tachometer compatible,allowing for additional diagnostics and safety.
System Overview:
The Nitehawk system consists of two PCBS and the Umbilical Cable. A simplified wiring diagram is shown below:
Nitehawk-36, this is the main PCB, which houses the MCU, stepper driver, fan drivers, and other circuits.This is a custom flex cable that is rated for drag chain use. It delivers 24V power to the main Nitehawk PCB while also carrying USB data.This simple PCB combines 24V power from the power supply and USB data from the Raspberry Pi into a unified connection to the
main Nitehawk PCB via the Umbilical cable.
System Overview:
No special setup is required for installing either Klipper or Katapult. Nitehawk simply needs to be hooked up as it operates normally in your 3D printer, with the tool board
connected to your Klipper host device (e.g. Raspberry Pi) via the USB adapter board. You also need access to the two buttons (RESET and BOOT0) on the tool board.
Also ACT light are important later. Reference the photo below to find the buttons and the ACT light.
