The Holybro Pixhawk 6X represents the latest advancement in the Pixhawk family of flight controllers, leveraging the Pixhawk FMUv6X Open Standard and the Pixhawk Autopilot Bus Standard. This cutting-edge system is pre-installed with the PX4 Autopilot software and is designed for both academic and commercial use, offering high flexibility and reliability for controlling autonomous vehicles.
At its core, the Pixhawk 6X is powered by the STMicroelectronics STM32H753 microcontroller with an Arm Cortex-M7 core running at up to 480 MHz. It features 2MB of flash memory and 1MB of RAM, providing substantial processing power for handling complex algorithms and models efficiently. This advanced processing capability enhances productivity for developers by supporting sophisticated flight control applications.
Key Features:
Ø High-Performance Processor: The STM32H753 microcontroller delivers superior processing capabilities with a clock speed up to 480 MHz, enabling high-speed data handling and complex computations.
Ø Advanced IMU Technology: The Pixhawk 6X includes high-performance, low-noise IMUs from Bosch® and InvenSense®, with triple redundant IMUs and double redundant barometers on separate buses to ensure exceptional flight stability and reliability.
Ø Redundancy and Safety: The system is designed with triple redundancy domains, featuring isolated sensor domains with separate buses and independent power controls. This setup ensures continuous flight control even if one sensor or bus fails.
Ø Vibration Isolation: A newly designed vibration isolation system effectively filters out high-frequency vibrations and reduces noise, ensuring accurate sensor readings and improved flight performance.
Ø Ethernet Interface: An integrated Microchip Ethernet PHY allows for high-speed communication with mission computers, facilitating efficient data transfer and integration.
Ø Temperature-Controlled IMUs: Onboard heating resistors maintain the IMUs at their optimal working temperature, ensuring consistent performance across various operating conditions.
Ø Modular Design: The Pixhawk 6X features a modular architecture with separate IMU, FMU, and Base systems connected via 100-pin and 50-pin Pixhawk Autopilot Bus connectors, offering flexibility and ease of integration.
Base Options:
Ø Pixhawk Standard Base: Designed for standard applications with a larger form factor and a wider range of interfaces.
Ø Pixhawk Mini Base: A compact version offering a smaller form factor for more constrained installations.
