l

GND

2 R NRST
3 D SWDIO
4 C SWDCLK

SWD/DEBUG connector - Used for software development or flashing via SWD
Cannot be used when UART2 is enabled.  Use an ST-Link debugger with OpenOCD or a J-Link debugger.
If for some reason you cannot flash using USB DFU or UART1 you can reinstall firmware using this port.

BUZZER
Use 5V and BUZZER- to connect to an external buzzer.

5.0v

 is also supplied when powering via USB.

NOTE:
You can check the transponder LED is working by using a mobile phone camera pointed straight at the LED when the transponder is enabled via the 

board and in the software.  The LED will pulse an infrared signal which usually shows up purple via a mobile phone camera.

RXD/ESC-TELEMETRY

UART4 connector - Used for 

5.0v

 Serial IO. (GPS, etc.)

TXD

 MUST NOT

 be used when SWD port is in use.

5.0v

 is always supplied via the on-board voltage regulators, even when powering via USB.

RXD signal also available on the middle of the first 4 motor outputs when the ESC-TLM bridge is set to TLM.

SDA

I2C1 connector - Used for external sensors and OLED displays.
The 

SCL

 and 

SDA

 are 

3.3v

 signals.

5.0v

 is also supplied when powering via USB.

IMPORTANT:

 logic level converters are 

REQUIRED

 if your sensors use 

5.0v

 signals.

NOTE:
When bridging select pads with solder, put a small blob of solder on two pads, let the solder cool, then bridge them together with a little more solder.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT CONNECT ALL THREE PADS TOGETHER.
