BTT Octopus Controller Board / 3D Printer Control System

This is one sweet board, perfect for a Voron build.

• • ARM Cortex-M4 STM32F446ZET6 32-bit microcontroller at 180MHz
  • Support for Klipper and Marlin firmwares
  • Interfaces for Raspberry Pi (USB and UART by GPIO)
  • Up to 4 hotends available
  • Integrated DCDC to provide 12V(4A), 5V(8A) and 3.3V(1A) power supply
  • Up to 6 controllable fans and 2 without control with the possibility of voltage selection (Vin, 12V and 5V)
  • Protection against short circuit on fans, something very important since it is one of the most common problems
  • USB-C connector that allows serial emulation to print using USB
  • Compatibility with almost any screen
  • High performance MOSFETs, improve heating speed and efficiency
  • Protection fuses easily replaceable
  • Double motor output for the Z axis
  • Improvements in the bootloader, supporting the update by USB (recommended) and DFU (advanced users)
  • 32K EEPROM (AT24C32)
  • Connectors for RGB LEDs and Neopixel
  • Connector for WiFi interface 
  • PT100 interface (requires INA8 amplifier 26AIDR welded to plate in socket)
  • Protection against short circuit in thermistors, another great improvement applied to the fans. It allows reusing these pins for other tasks with a pin that bypasses these protections
  • BLTouch support and the like with a connector intended for them and usable by other ABL systems. The PROBE port was added extra protection with an optocoupler so as not to need to use a BAT85 diode
  • CAN BUS via ethernet connector for future expansion modules
  • SPI BUS expansion port for SPI modules such as MAX31865
  • I2C BUS expansion port for I2C modules
  • Support for modules Relay and UPS
