TiltRod Control Board
v3.0 Rev D — 21.5 × 40 mm
The board the drive runs on. Rev D pulls the magnetic encoder onto the PCB itself, so the only wires left in the unit are the motor lead and USB-C power.
P/NTF-D-PCB-01SKUTF-D-PCB-01RevD
| Board | 21.5 × 40 mm, 2-layer |
|---|---|
| Controller | Seeed XIAO ESP32-C6, socketed (J10 / J20) |
| Encoder | AS5600 absolute, on-board |
| Motor drive | On-board H-bridge, JST PH2.0 2-pin |
| Power | 5 V USB-C through the XIAO, ~1 A design peak |
| Indicators | D1 green (power), D2 blue (activity) |
Features
- Encoder on the board. The AS5600 reads the N52 magnets in the worm wheel through the PCB. No sensor daughterboard, no ribbon to unplug.
- Absolute angle, not step counting. Tilt position survives a power cut and a manual wand pull — the board knows where the slats are the moment it boots.
- Socketed controller. The XIAO drops into J10/J20. Swapping the radio is a pull-and-press, not a rework station.
- Everything keyed. The motor lead is a keyed JST PH2.0 — red positive, black negative — so it only seats one way.
- Status you can read. D1 and D2 are back-mounted and glow through the shell: green for power, blue for activity.
- Local buttons. On-board buttons drive the blind and run calibration with no phone, no app, and no network.
