Megatronics V2.0

Introduction

Megatronics is based on many famous open-source products including: Arduino Mega 2560, RAMPS, SD Ramps. Therefor this product is an already proven design. It combines all major features of these board into a single board solution for more reliable 3D-printing. Megatronics has a powerful Atmega2560 processor with 256 kB memory, running at 16Mhz. The board can be connected to a PC using a normal USB cable. It will register as FTDI FT232R device. The board is compatible with the Arduino Mega 2560 and will therefor be easily programmed from the Arduino IDE.

SPECIFICATION

• Four layer high quality PCB board

Details

Thermocouple:

On board support for connecting two thermo couples

SD Card:

Autonomous printing from Micro SD card on board

Five MOSFETs:

The board has 4 regular MOSFETs and oneMOSFET for the heated bed (IRLS3034PBF) to support many

needs.

Up to 6 stepper drivers:

Compatible with RAMPS, 6 slots for stepper drivers(not included). Modularized to make

replacement easy for damaged drivers. Also the new DRV8825 Pololu stepper drivers are

supported.

Support for many peripherals:

The board's functions can be easily extended with LCD, keypad etc. See the connectors section

for more information Auto reset can be disabled by removing a jumper
