MOD-IO user's manual

5.8 PWR jack

The power jack used is the typical 2.5mm one used by Olimex in most of our products. You should 
provide 6V-20V AC or 8V-30V DC. The required current depends on the peripherals connected to the 
board. The power supply you use should be capable of providing enough current to maintain the nominal 
voltage.

More info about the power supply can be found in chapter 5 of this manual.

5.9 Additional hardware components

The components and circuits below are mounted on MOD-IO but are not discussed thoroughly in the 
document above. They are listed here for completeness:

PWR_LED – shows whether the board is powered; turns on upon powering the board

STAT LED – general purpose LED, that can be programmed by the user; blinks upon powering the board;
connected via R11 (330 Ohm) to Atmega16l pin 43 ((AIN1)PB3).

Status LED (red) with name LED1 – visualize input (IN1) state.
Status LED (red) with name LED2 – visualize input (IN2) state.
Status LED (red) with name LED3 – visualize input (IN3) state.
Status LED (red) with name LED4 – visualize input (IN4) state.
Status LED (green) with name O1 – visualize relay (REL1) state.
Status LED (green) with name O2 – visualize relay (REL2) state.
Status LED (green) with name O3 – visualize relay (REL3) state.
Status LED (green) with name O4 – visualize relay (REL4) state.

RST button – used to reset the board connected to Atmega16A pin 4 (RESET).

BUT button – general purpose button, that can be programmed by the user; connected to Atmega16A pin 
11 ((INT0)PD2).

Quartz crystal Q1 – 8 MHz, connected to ATmega16A pin 7 (XTAL2) and pin 8 (XTAL1).

Quartz crystal Q2 – 32.768kHz (real-time clock) quartz crystal, connected to ATmega16A pin 25 
((TOSC1)PC6) and pin 26 ((TOSC2)PC7).

Reset circuit – MOD-IO reset circuit includes a reset chip MCP130T (U2), AVRISP connector pin 5, 
JTAG connector pin 6, Atmega16A pin 4 (RESET), R9 (100R), R10 (10k), C10 (100nF) and a RST 
button.
