Are you ready to embark on your journey to becoming an electronics expert or building your own drone? The Pixhawk PPM Encoder Module is an essential tool for seamlessly converting PWM signals into PPM signals, making it a must-have for enthusiasts and professionals.

What is PPM Encoding?

Pulse Position Modulation (PPM) encoding positions pulses to encode signals. The Pixhawk PPM Encoder converts up to 8 PWM (Pulse Width Modulated) signals into a single PPM (Pulse Position Modulation) signal, ideal for flight controllers that support only PPM inputs.

Why Choose This PPM Encoder Module?

If you have a PWM receiver but your flight controller (e.g., Pixhawk or APM) only supports PPM, this encoder bridges the gap by consolidating multiple PWM channels into one streamlined PPM signal. With this module, you’ll reduce your wiring needs while maintaining robust performance.

Key Features:

  • Compact Design: Small dimensions make it easy to integrate into your project.
  • Versatile Compatibility: Works with up to 8 channels, providing flexibility for various receiver setups.
  • Single-Wire Efficiency: Consolidates up to 8 PWM channels into one PPM output, minimizing wiring complexity.
  • Reliable Power Management: Features a jumper (JP1) for flexible powering options to prevent damage to the autopilot’s power regulator.

Important Powering Tips:

  • JP1 Shorted: Power the encoder, receiver, and servos directly from the autopilot board.
  • JP1 Removed: Use a separate/additional power source for the receiver or servos, ensuring no power conflicts with the autopilot.
    Failure to remove JP1 when using separate power may damage the autopilot’s regulator.

Additional Notes:

  • Pre-configured firmware supports 8 channels.
  • For advanced customization (e.g., signal inversion or fail-safe settings), reprogramming with an AVR ISP programmer is required.
  • Product size and design may vary slightly without affecting functionality.

Package Includes:

  • 1 x Pixhawk PPM Encoder Module
  • 1 x JR Plug 10P Input Cable
  • 1 x JR Plug 4P Output Cable
  • Model No: NFCA04
