Introduction
The CHI030A standard board uses a darlington driver IC to provide power to 8
digital (on/off) outputs (PICAXE pins B.0 to B.7). Each output is rated at 500mA.
6 digital (or 4 digital/2analogue) inputs are also available (PICAXE pins C.0 to
C.7), all prefitted with a 10k pull down resistor for ease of use.
A high power board is also available (part CHI035A) separately. This uses 4 FETs
to provide 4 high power digital outputs (rated at 1.5A each), and the option of a
L293D motor driver IC to provide 2 reversible motor outputs, rated at 1A each.
Both boards are supplied ready for immediate use with the PICAXE-18M2 chip.
The inputs (portC) are on the left and buffered outputs (portB) are on the right.
The direct (non-buffered) portB PICAXE outputs are also available in the centre of
the board for connection to logic level devices (e.g. an AXE033 Serial LCD).

This peelable layer protects the user solderable pads during manufacture and
storage, to keep the pads clean and grease free.
Note also that the solder pads on the PCBs may now appear as a dull white
milky colour, not shiny silver as in the past. This is due to the more
environmentally friendly lead-free chemicals now used for plating RoHS
compliant PCBs.
This is not a fault and the pad can still be hand soldered just as easily as the older
style shiny solder pads. No cleaning is generally required prior to soldering.

The connections marked C.3 and C.4 should not generally be used with the
PICAXE system. These are used by the PICAXE chip as the serial in and serial
out PC download connection.
All inputs are provided with a 10k pull down resistor pre fitted to the board.
However the board is also configured to allow use of inputs C.0 and C.1 as
analogue inputs. Some analogue sensors, such as a potentiometer, will require
the on-board 10k resistor to be cut off from the positions marked R8 (upper
resistor, input C.0) and R7 (lower resistor, input C.1) as shown above.

Note that when using terminal blocks it is necessary to share the V2+ connector
with all output pins and to share the V1+ connector with all inputs. Remember
that with the darlington driver output buffer the output devices are connected
between V2+ and the output (NOT output to 0V). Like wise the inputs are
connected between V1+ and the input.
