planetcnc mk3/4 outputs
Hello!
Can you tell me, the outputs on the mk3/4 latest version, go through the buffer or directly from the processor?
I have connected the frequency converter through the optocoupler (out1,2) and out6 pwm 5V directly to frequency converter, It supports 5V PWM.
It worked fine for 15 minutes, and then the spindle turned off. Now, with the outputs activated, the voltage is 0 at all outputs

Please tell me which chip is responsible for the outputs I will check this chip.
Re: planetcnc mk3/4 outputs
Controller should never be powered just through USB. If it is all grounding is through computer USB port. In my experience this is very dangerous and can damage processor.
Output driver is SN74AHCT244, input driver is SN74AHC244.

Driver for Output 6 is U2.

The problem has been solved. The reason is in the terminal block. If the screw is unscrewed (not tightened) then there is no contact. And I broke my head, why there is no contact. I was afraid that the buffer was broken. I see such a terminal block for the first time. Usually there is always contact on the bolt.
Electronics is the science of contacts

I'm very happy for this.
