Frequently Asked Questions
Is TF-Luna available with 3.3V power supply?
The standard power supply is 5V ±0.1V. For custom voltage requirements, contact the manufacturer for customization options.
Why does TF-Luna heat up during operation?
This is normal. The chip and circuit board temperature will slightly increase during continuous operation, which is expected behavior.
Can TF-Luna connect to Arduino or Raspberry Pi?
Yes. TF-Luna uses serial communication protocol and can connect to any control board supporting serial port communication, including Arduino and Raspberry Pi.
