Huvud 3D Printer toolhead board

A very small 3D printer board for use on a direct drive toolhead. It is designed to be used with Klipper firmware. Klipper has the awesome feature to be able to use multiple MCUs connected to the host over a (relatively) high latency connection. Using CAN bus it is possible to chain many boards using just a pair of twisted wires and power. A good solution for multiple head 3D printers.

Features:

• CAN bus.
• One TMC2209 stepper driver for the extruder
• Two MOSFETs for fans
• One big MOSFET for the hotend heater
• Thermistor input
• Support for an endstop (or filament runout sensnor)
• STM32F103 72Mhz 32bit ARM MCU
• USB, for flashing firmware

Main power is 12-24V. 24V is preferred to keep the currents low

All done in KiCad and open source.
