Connectors
The node has 3 connectors which are described in the table below.
| № | Connector | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | CAN1, CAN2 | Devices that deliver power to the bus are required to provide 4.5–5.5 V on the bus power line, 5.0 V nominal. Devices that are powered from the bus should expect 4.5–5.5 V on the bus power line. The current shall not exceed 1 A per connector. |
| 2 | SWD | STM32 firmware updating using programmer-sniffer. |
| 3 | CAN3 | Can be powered from 5.5 to 30 volts and connected to CAN. |
| 4 | UART | Can be used to setup the GPS module |

# 2.5. Power Supply Recommendations
Device is designed to operate from an input voltage supply range between 4.5 V and 5.5 V over CAN2 or CAN3 connector, or 5.5 - 30 V from CAN1. This input supply must be able to withstand the maximum input current and maintain a stable voltage. The resistance of the input supply rail should be low enough that an input current transient does not cause a high enough drop that can cause a false UVLO fault triggering and system reset. The amount of bulk capacitance is not critical, but a 47-μF or 100-μF electrolytic capacitor is a typical choice.
