Holybro PM03D Power Module

Overview

As part of the Holybro PM03D, drone power module, it provides a regulated power supply and is capable of monitoring battery voltage and energy consumption in connection with the I2C digital protocol over the period of 6 pins across the 1.00mm CLIK-Mate cable. If you use a flight controller that supports I2C power monitors such as the Pixhawk 5X and up, you will be able to use this module.

This model is designed to be used on multi-rotor drones such as the X500 V2. Several XT-30 and XT-60 connectors have already been preinstalled in this system, so you can attach motor ESCs and batteries to it. Also included are a 5V BEC and an 8V/12V output that can be selected for different types of peripheral devices based on their switch.

It is important to note that this FPV power module will not be compatible with flight controllers with analog PMs such as the Pixhawk4 Mini, Pix32 V5, or Durandal flight controllers that use analog PM.

Features of PM03D

• With QGroundcontrol & Mission Planner, there is no additional setup required, which makes it plug-and-play
• XT-30 connectors and solder pads for easy connection of motors to ESCs
• The circuit board includes two voltage regulators: two 5.2V & a selectable 8V/12V onboard
• The motherboard’s 5V/A ports can power the companion computer or peripheral device
• Powering peripheral devices with selectable 8V or 12V triple row pin header
