A Yaesu G-5500 (etc) rotator controller project based on Anthony Good’s popular K3NG rotator controller.
This project features a Teensy 3.2 microcontroller and Nextion Enhanced HMI user interface.
• Az analogue potentiometer input
• El analogue potentiometer input
• Four NO push-button switch inputs with pull-ups available
• Teensy I/O pins available via pads
• 100 x 50 mm
• Powered from Yaesu G-5500 controller
G-5500 K3NG Controller Board
• GPS serial data pass-through (genuine FTDI chip) to USB allows for simultaneous Teensy & PC time-syncing
• High efficiency DC-DC buck 7805 replacement regulator (or use traditional linear 7805 with heat sink)
• Audible Alert (peizo) connector
• Teensy 3.2 Real Time Clock (RTC) battery connector
• Nextion connector
• MT-8870 DTMF module pads available for DTMF experimentation
