# CUAV X25-SUPER ::: warning PX4 does not manufacture this (or any) autopilot. Contact the [manufacturer](https://store.cuav.net/) for hardware support or compliance issues. ::: The _X25-SUPER_ is an advanced autopilot manufactured by CUAV®. The autopilot is recommended for commercial system integration but is also suitable for academic research and any other applications. ![X25-SUPER AutoPilot - hero image](../../assets/flight_controller/cuav_x25-super/x25-super.png) The X25-SUPER brings you ultimate performance, stability, and reliability in every aspect. ::: info These flight controllers are [manufacturer supported](../flight_controller/autopilot_manufacturer_supported.md). ::: ### Features - Arm® Cortex-M7® processor (STM32H743XI) with Floating-Point Unit (FPU), operating at 480MHz, and featuring 2MB Flash memory. Enables developers to enhance productivity and efficiency, allowing for more complex algorithms and models. - Automotive-grade RM3100 compass. Designed for better stability and anti-interference capability. - Triple-redundant IMUs and dual-redundant barometers located on separate buses. If the PX4 autopilot detects a sensor failure, the system seamlessly switches to another sensor to maintain flight control reliability. - Independent LDO power control supplies power to each sensor group. A vibration isolation system filters high-frequency vibrations and reduces noise to ensure accurate readings, enabling better overall flight performance for the vehicle. - Integrated Microchip Ethernet PHY for high-speed communication with onboard devices like mission computers via Ethernet. - Dual temperature compensation systems, located on the IMU board and FMU board respectively. Temperature is controlled by onboard heating resistors to achieve the optimal operating temperature for the IMUs. - PWM servo output voltage switchable between 3.3V or 5V. - Modular design for DIY carrier boards. ### Processors & Sensors - Main Processor: STM32H743XI - 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M7, 480MHz, 2MB Flash, 1MB RAM - Onboard Sensors: - Accel/Gyro: SCH16T - Accel/Gyro: IIM42652 - Accel/Gyro: IIM42653 - Magnetometer: RM3100 - Barometer: BMP581 - Barometer: ICP-20100 ### Electrical Data - Rated Voltage: - Input Voltage: 10~18V - USB Power Input: 4.75~5.25V - Servo Rail Input: 0~9.9V - Rated Current: - Total Output Max Current: 10A - `TELEM1` and `TELEM2` Output Current limiter: 4A - `CAN1` and `CAN2` Output Current limiter: 2.4A - Other Ports Output Current limiter: 1.5A ### Interfaces - 16x PWM Servo Outputs - 1x Dedicated R/C Input(`RC IN`) for Spektrum / DSM and S.Bus - 1x Analog/PWM RSSI Input - 2x TELEM Ports (with full flow control) - 1x UART4 Port - 2x GPS Ports - 1x Full GPS plus Safety Switch Port (GPS1) - 1x Basic GPS Port (with I2C, GPS2) - 1x USB Port (TYPE-C) - 1x Ethernet Port - Transformerless application - 100Mbps - 3x I2C Bus Ports - 1x SPI Bus - 1x Chip Select Line - 1x Data Ready Line - 1x SPI Reset Line - 5x CAN Ports for CAN Peripherals - 3x CAN1 Bus Multiplexed Ports - 2x CAN2 Bus Multiplexed Ports - 2x Power Input Ports - DroneCAN/UAVCAN Power Input - 2x AD Ports - Analog Input (3.3V) - Analog Input (6.6V - not supported by PX4) - 1x Dedicated Debug Port - FMU Debug ### Mechanical Data - Dimensions: ![CUAV X25-SUPER](../../assets/flight_controller/cuav_x25-super/x25-super_size.png) ## Purchase Channels {#store} Order from [CUAV](https://store.cuav.net/). ## Assembly/Setup The [X25 SUPER Wiring Quick Start](../assembly/quick_start_cuav_x25_evo.md) provides instructions on how to assemble required/important peripherals including GPS, Power Module etc. ## Pinouts ![CUAV X25-SUPER Pinout_01](../../assets/flight_controller/cuav_x25-super/x25-super_pinouts_01.png) ![CUAV X25-SUPER Pinout_02](../../assets/flight_controller/cuav_x25-super/x25-super_pinouts_02.png) ## Serial Port Mapping | UART | Device | Port | | ------ | ---------- | ------------- | | USART1 | /dev/ttyS0 | GPS1 | | USART2 | /dev/ttyS1 | GPS2 | | USART3 | /dev/ttyS2 | Debug Console | | UART4 | /dev/ttyS3 | UART4 | | UART5 | /dev/ttyS4 | TELEM2 | | USART6 | /dev/ttyS5 | RC IN | | UART7 | /dev/ttyS6 | TELEM1 | ## RC Input The RC input pin is directly connected to the FMU UART6 TX. ## Voltage Ratings The _X25-SUPER_ achieves triple redundancy on power supplies if three power sources are provided. The three power rails are `POWERC1`, `POWERC2`, and `USB`. - **POWER C1** and **POWER C2** are DroneCAN/UAVCAN battery interfaces. **Normal Operation Maximum Ratings** Under these conditions, all power sources will be used to power the system in the following order: 1. **POWER C1** and **POWER C2** Inputs (10V to 18V) 2. USB Input (4.75V to 5.25V) **Voltage monitoring** Digital DroneCAN/UAVCAN battery monitoring is enabled by default. ## Building Firmware ::: tip Most users will not need to build this firmware (from PX4 v1.18). It is pre-built and automatically installed by _QGroundControl_ when appropriate hardware is connected. ::: To [build PX4](../dev_setup/building_px4.md) for this target, execute: ```sh make cuav_x25-super_default ``` ## Debug Port {#debug_port} The [PX4 System Console](../debug/system_console.md) and [SWD Interface](../debug/swd_debug.md) operate on the **FMU Debug** port. | Pin | Signal | Volt | | ------- | -------------- | ----- | | 1 (red) | 5V+ | +5V | | 2 (blk) | DEBUG TX (OUT) | +3.3V | | 3 (blk) | DEBUG RX (IN) | +3.3V | | 4 (blk) | FMU_SWDIO | +3.3V | | 5 (blk) | FMU_SWCLK | +3.3V | | 6 (blk) | GND | GND | ## Supported Platforms / Airframes Any multicopter / airplane / rover or boat that can be controlled with normal RC servos or Futaba S-Bus servos.
