Xol PCB

This is a PCB made for Armchair Engineering's Xol Toolhead, featuring:

• One hotend cooling fan JST-XH connectors
• Two part cooling fan JST-XH connectors
• One heater Micro-Fit connector
• One thermistor Micro-Fit connector
• One Neopixel JST-XH connector
• Two auxiliary JST-XH connectors
• One extruder motor connector
• Selectable fan voltage (5V, Alt, 24V)
• Integrated mount for carriage screw

BOM

In addition to the PCB, the following connectors are needed:

Part	Quantity	Link
Molex Micro-Fit 3.0 430451600	1	DigiKey
Molex Micro-Fit 3.0 430650200	2	DigiKey
JST B2B-XH-A	4	DigiKey
JST B3B-XH-A	2	DigiKey
JST B4B-XH-A	1	DigiKey

Pinout

From the point of view looking directly at the wiring harness connector:

Pin	Usage	Pin	Usage
1	Neopixel	9	Hotend voltage
2	Part cooling fan ground	10	Hotend ground
3	Hotend fan ground	11	Alt voltage
4	Thermistor ground	12	Thermistor
5	Motor A1	13	Motor B1
6	Motor A2	14	Motor B2
7	Ground	15	Auxilary 1
8	5V	16	Auxiliary 2

Selectable fan voltage

There are two sets of solder jumpers, one for each type of fan, that should be bridged to select the fan voltage.

Extruder compatibility

The PCB and strain relief are designed with only the Sherpa Mini in mind. Usage with other extruders may require the motor connector to be swapped to the back side.

Distribution board

Xol PCB is compatible with the Xol distribution board from Annex Engineering. See additional documentation here.

Alternatives

• A second Xol PCB can be used as a distribution board.

• The Carabiner distribution board can be used as labeled with the following changes:

  Distribution PCB	Xol PCB
  ThChamb	RGB
  A1	GND
  A2	AUX1
  A3	AUX2
  A4	5V

Wiring harness

Xol PCB is compatible with the Carabiner wiring harness from Annex Engineering. The long version is 1200mm, which may not sufficient for some printers.

Printer	Compatible with Carabiner Harness
Trident 250mm	Yes
Trident 300mm	Yes
Trident 350mm	Likely (untested)
V2.4 250mm	Yes
V2.4 300mm	Yes with horizontal Z chain
V2.4 350mm	Unlikely (untested)

Alternatives

• (Recommended) Custom length Carabiner harness from Annex Engineering
• (Recommended) 2.2 meter alternative from Raven Mech
• Repin a 14+2 Stealthburner wiring harness (e.g. 14-pin + 2-pin + 2x Molex Micro-Fit 3.0 0430251600)

Beacon compatibility

The two AUX pins can be used for Beacon D- and D+ lines with some caveats:

• It is an untested use case
• There will be no more AUX pins left for endstop or filament sensors
• The traces are routed over ground plane splits
• 5V must be supplied from VBUS, meaning any fans running off of 5V will be powered by VBUS
• Only compatible with Annex harness, which has a twisted wire pair for D- and D+
