Newest Holybro Pixhawk 6X Flight Controller Standard / MINI Version Barometer / Gary 32 Bit Arm For Drone Airplane Quadcopter
Inside the Pixhawk® 6X, you can find an STMicroelectronics® based STM32H753, paired with sensor technology from Bosch®,
InvenSense®, giving you flexibility and reliability for controlling any autonomous vehicle, suitable for both academic and
commercial applications.
The Pixhawk® 6X’s H7 microcontroller contain the Arm® Cortex®-M7 core running up to 480 MHz, has 2MB flash memory and 1MB RAM. The
PX4 Autopilot takes advantage of the increased power and RAM. Thanks to the updated processing power, developers can be more
productive and efficient with their development work, allowing for complex algorithms and models.
The FMUv6X open standard includes high-performance, low-noise IMUs on board, designed for better stabilization. Triple redundant
IMU & double redundant barometer on separate buses. When the PX4 Autopilot detects a sensor failure, the system seamlessly
switches to another to maintain flight control reliability.
An independent LDO powers every sensor set with independent power control. A vibration isolation System to filter out
high-frequency vibration and reduce noise to ensure accurate readings, allowing vehicles to reach better overall flight
performances.
External sensor bus (SPI5) has two chip select lines and data-ready signals for additional sensors and payload with SPI-interface,
and with an integrated Microchip Ethernet PHY, high-speed communication with mission computers via ethernet is now possible.
The Pixhawk® 6X is perfect for developers at corporate research labs, startups, academics (research, professors, students), and
commercial application.
Key Design Points
High performance STM32H753 Processor
Modular flight controller: separated IMU, FMU, and Base system connected by a 100-pin & a 50-pin Pixhawk® Autopilot Bus connector.
Redundancy: 3x IMU sensors & 2x Barometer sensors on separate buses
Triple redundancy domains: Completely isolated sensor domains with separate buses and separate power control
Newly designed vibration isolation system to filter out high frequency vibration and reduce noise to ensure accurate readings
Ethernet interface for high-speed mission computer integration
IMUs are temperature-controlled by onboard heating resistors, allowing optimum working temperature of IMUs
