1

The RS485 circuit controls the Input and Output direction automatically, there’s no need to control it from within the software.

2

The default product without the CM5 does not include a Wi-Fi/BT module. You can include a CM5 that has the Wi-Fi/BT module at the Chipsee store during the ordering process.

3

TF card slot, only used with CM5 Lite to boot system, cannot be used as external storage for CM5

Power Input

The EPC/PPC-CM5-070 industrial Pi PC can be powered by a wide range of input voltages: 9V to 36V DC. There are two types of power input connectors. One is a 3 Pin, 3.81mm screw terminal connector, and the other is a 2.1mm DC input head. As shown in the figure below.

Power Input

Note that the “+” sign represents the positive power input, and it is printed both at the casing and as a silk-screen on the board of the embedded version. The “-” terminal is shorted to the ground.

Table 322 Power Connector

Power Input Definition
Pin Number	Definition	Description
Pin 1	Positive Input	DC Power Positive Terminal
Pin 2	Negative Input	DC Power Negative Terminal
Pin 3	Ground	Power System Ground

Note

The system ground “G” is connected to power negative “-” on board.

The other power input port is a 2.1mm x 5.5mm x 9.5mm DC jack. For a proper DC power connector, refer to the figure below.

DC Jack

Touch Screen

The EPC/PPC-CM5-070 industrial Pi PC uses a 5-point capacitive touch with 1mm Armored Glass screen. However, the Raspberry Pi OS supports only One-Point touch.
The figure below shows the capacitive touch screen connected to the motherboard via the FPC connector.

Capacitive Touch Connector

Attention

A capacitive touch screen is susceptible to power noise and Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR). It may cause LCD ripples or even capacitive touch malfunction. If using a capacitive multi-touch test application, you might notice the touch points float erratically across the display. There are several solutions to this problem:

1. Use a high-quality Power Adapter Unit (PSU) with low EMR. You can also provide power from a battery.

2. Make sure that the EPC/PPC-CM5-070 Power Input connector (pin 3) is properly connected to the Power System Ground to provide sufficient EMI shielding and eliminate the problem entirely.

3. Bad GND problems can also be confirmed by touching pin 3 of the Power Input connector with one hand while operating the capacitive touch screen with the other hand. In this case, the operator’s body acts as the Power System Ground.

Connectivity

There are many connectivity options available on the EPC/PPC-CM5-070 industrial Pi PC. It has 2 x USB 3.0 type-A Host, 1 x USB type-C OTG, 1 x Giga LAN (RJ45) Ethernet connector supporting up to 1 Gbps, and 4 x UART and 1 x CAN terminals (RS232/RS485/CAN).

RS232/RS485/CAN

The serial communication interfaces (RS485, RS232, and CAN) are routed to a 16-pin 3.81mm terminal, as illustrated in the figure below.

Attention

1. RS485_3 and RS485_5 can control the input and output direction automatically. There’s no need to control it from within the software.

2. The 120Ω match resistor for RS485 is NOT mounted by default.

3. The 120Ω match resistor for CAN is NOT mounted by default. Be sure to mount the match resistor when testing CAN.

4. RS485_3 and RS232_3 share UART3 and can’t work at the same time; RS485_5 and RS232_5 share UART5 and can’t work at the same time. Meaning the product provides 4 x RS232 + 0 x RS485, or 2 x RS232 + 2 x RS485, or 3 x RS232 + 1 x RS485.

GPIO Port

The EPC/PPC-CM5-070 industrial Pi PC has a 10 Pin 3.81mm GPIO Connector, as shown in the figure below. The table below gives details about the definition of every Pin.

Attention

1. In order to use the Isolated Output, you need to add an external Isolated Power to the VDD_ISO and GND_ISO. The power voltage should not exceed 24V.

2. The output current can achieve 500mA for every channel, but it also depends on the isolated power that is connected.

3. In order to use the Isolated Input, you need to add a signal to the ISO_InputX and GND_ISO. A 2.4KΩ resistor, as R6, has been added to limit the input current, as shown in the figure below. This resistor should work well for the 5-24V input signal. If your input signal is less than 5V, please change this input resistor. The reduced schematic is for reference purpose, if you need the precise resistor schematic, please contact us.

2. These two USB host connectors come from the same USB HUB.
3. When you connect this product to the HOST PC through the Type-C port, the USB HUB will be disabled. As a result, the two USB host connectors will not work.

The product has one USB Type-C OTG connector that works as a slave by default. You can use it to establish a connection with the host PC and for downloading the system to the eMMC of CM5 module.

USB Type-C OTG Connector

Warning

1. Be careful not to touch surrounding electronic components accidentally while plugging in USB devices into the embedded Industrial PC version.

2. Remember to unplug the Type-C cable after flashing OS, otherwise the USB hosts won’t work.
