Pinout

JHEMCU GF16-BMI stack JHEMCU GF16-BMI stack

UART Mapping

The UARTs are marked Rn and Tn in the above pinouts. The Rn pin is the receive pin for UARTn. The Tn pin is the transmit pin for UARTn.

Name Pin Function
SERIAL0 COMPUTER USB
SERIAL1 RX1/TX1 USART1 (DMA) - RC Input/Output
SERIAL2 TX2/RX2 USART2 (DMA RX only) - MAVLink2
SERIAL3 TX3/RX3 USART3 (DMA TX only) - GPS1
SERIAL4 TX4/RX4 UART4 (DMA TX only) - VTX
SERIAL6 TX6/RX6 USART6 - User

RC Input

SBUS input must be on SBUS pin, all others can use RX1, CRSF/ELRS/SRXL2 must also use TX pin

OSD Support

The GSF405A supports OSD using OSD_TYPE 1 (MAX7456 driver).

PWM Output

The JHEM_JHEF405 supports up to 9 PWM outputs (PWM9 is the serial LED output, by default). All outputs support DShot.

The PWM is in 5 groups:

  • PWM 1,2,5 in group1
  • PWM 3,4 in group2
  • PWM 6 in group3
  • PWM 7,8 in group4
  • PWM 9 in group5

Channels within the same group need to use the same output rate. If any channel in a group uses DShot then all channels in that group would need to use DShot.

Battery Monitoring

The board has a built-in voltage and current sensors.

The correct battery setting parameters are:

  • BATT_MONITOR 4
  • BATT_VOLT_PIN 13
  • BATT_VOLT_SCALE 11.0
  • BATT_CURR_PIN 12
  • BATT_CURR_SCALE 58.8

These are set by default in the firmware and shouldn't need to be adjusted

Compass

The JHEM_JHEF405 does not have a builtin compass, but you can attach an external compass to the I2C pins.

LED

The board includes a LED_STRIP output, which is assigned a timer and DMA. This is the PWM 9 output.

Loading Firmware

Initial firmware load can be done with DFU by plugging in USB with the bootloader button pressed. Then you should load the "with_bl.hex" firmware, using your favourite DFU loading tool.

Once the initial firmware is loaded you can update the firmware using any ArduPilot ground station software. Updates should be done with the *.apj firmware files.
