VCC
|
Positive power input. Connect 5V/3.3V to supply power for infrared pairs, comparators and indicators on board
|
|
11Pin FPC Header Interface
|
GND
|
Negative power. Must share ground with MCU for unified level reference to avoid signal drift
|
|
11Pin FPC Header Interface
|
OUT1~OUT9
|
9-channel detection signal outputs, corresponding to channel U1~U9. Independent output of each channel without mutual interference
|
|
11Pin FPC Header Interface
|
LED
|
Channel indicator control pin (Optional, for status feedback). Supports external extended indicator groups for remote status monitoring
|
|
Core Feature - 9-Channel Parallel Sampling
|
Higher detection density than 8-channel modules, accurately recognizes cross tracks, S-curves and complex multi-branch competition tracks
|
More sampling points capture tiny track deviation; vehicles are less likely to deviate from tracks during high-speed turning and crossing intersections
|
|
Core Feature - Dual Potentiometer Zonal Adjustment
|
Two groups of adjustable potentiometers calibrate detection thresholds for different zones, adapting to tracks with uneven reflectivity
|
Independent sensitivity calibration for left and right zones, solving single-side detection failure caused by inconsistent base color and wear on both sides of tracks
|
|
Core Feature - Independent Channel Indicators
|
Each channel equipped with status LED to display detection results in real time; oscilloscope is not required during debugging
|
Channel trigger status can be judged directly via onboard lights, greatly shortening track debugging and fault troubleshooting time
|
|
Core Feature - Ambient Light Suppression Switch
|
Enable/disable strong light filtering to reduce reflection interference from sunlight and indoor lighting
|
Filters ambient infrared interference in outdoor, window-side and ceiling-lit venues, ensuring stable black line recognition
|
|
Core Feature - Pure Digital Output
|
No ADC analog-to-digital conversion required. MCU general IO pins read level directly to locate black lines
|
Occupies no MCU ADC resources, simple program logic, ideal for beginner learning and competition development
|
|
Core Feature - Anti-Interference Circuit
|
Built-in filter capacitors and current-limiting resistors restrain power ripple and electromagnetic interference, stable output without jitter
|
Mitigates power fluctuation and electromagnetic radiation from motor startup & stop, reduces signal glitches for smoother line tracking
