The VINA-D51 is a powerful, robust, pluggable control module designed for modular control applications. Built with all-industrial grade components and features, it is well-suited for a wide variety of automation and control requirements, including harsh environments.
**Overview**

The VINA-D51 Control Module saves time and money by providing a proven, modular design, that enables custom application-specific solutions to move from the drawing board to the finished product quickly.
The VINA-D51 is a powerful, robust, pluggable control module designed
for modular control applications, even in harsh environments. Built
with all-industrial grade components, latching connectors and
features, it is well-suited for a wide variety of automation and
control applications.

VINA-D51 enables you to develop your application-specific board independently of the controller section. This simplifies your design, saves CAD time during the design phase, reduces errors that can cost weeks of PCB re-manufacture to correct, and saves debug time during the prototype and testing phases. By starting with VINA-D51, you start from a known-good foundation, reducing complexity and risk.
**VINA-D51 at a glance**

Incorporate the VINA-D51 in your designs over and over again and multiply your savings. Useful for custom applications, one-off projects, breadboarded prototypes, and even standalone projects. VINA-D51 has all of the common essentials built-in, on-board.

* AutoDesk Eagle CAD part available to easily incorporate into your application-specific designs

To get you started even more quickly, BDMICRO provides the Autodesk Eagle CAD part for VINA-D51. Getting started is as easy as downloading the part and adding it to your application specific design, allowing you to focus on your custom application's needs, with all the right connectors, headers, and other circuitry needed for your project solution.

Capable of running standalone, modular piggy back on application-specific boards, or breadboarded, the VINA-D51 is a great choice for your next project.
**Everything you need from your Control Module**

* **POWER** : Powerful 32-bit ARM Cortex M4 microcontroller @ 120 MHz,
based on the Microchip ATSAMD51N20 w/1MB of program flash and 256K
of RAM

* **INDUSTRIAL GRADE** : All industrial spec parts and Latch-Lock
connectors for reliable operation in demanding applications

* **CONNECTIVITY** : USB interface for connecting to your development
PC or Laptop computer for programming; provides virtual com port
for CircuitPython console and UART, and mass storage filesystem
interface to the 64MB on-board QSPI flash for programs and data
storage; can additionally be used in your application

* **CONTROL & INTERFACING** : RS485, I2C, WIFI & Expansion : Latching
RS485 interface connector on-board which is a UART-style
differential bus with high noise immunity common in manufacturing
and control automation; Latching I2C interface connector on-board
for sensors, controllers, displays, keypads, etc, on this commonly
used bus; 12-pin AUX Expansion Socket on-board for expansion
versatility and WIFI-enabled using the ubiquitous and inexpensive
ESP-01S module; additionally, VINA-D51 brings out 48 I/O capable
of Digital I/O, UARTs, I2C, SPI, A/D, DAC, USB, and many other
useful control and interfacing capabilities to the edge + 10
additional I/O on the AUX Socket

* **DEVELOPMENT & DEBUG** : CircuitPython and UF2 Bootloader
pre-installed to get started developing right away with just a
laptop or PC and a text editor; no extra software or IDEs to
install and no extra hardware to purchase; and with a standard ARM
Cortex SWD debug header on-board, low level programming in C/C++
with source-level, single-step debugging utilizing a hardware
programmer like the Segger J-Link is easy

* **DATA STORAGE** : Large 64 MB of on-board flash filesystem storage
space for your programs and data presented as an external drive on
your development workstation; soldered directly to the board, this
flash storage will not suffer from corrosion or vibration in harsh
environments like SD-Card type storage are prone

* **FLEX VOLTAGE** : Robust power section with wide voltage input
range for flexible and reliable operation, and enough headroom to
supply power to other devices - perhaps even your whole
application board - up to about 3 amps; incorporates industrial
grade Molex Latch-Lock connector that will not vibrate loose even
in the most demanding applications
