Description
The DueX 5 is an expansion board designed for the Duet 2 Wifi and Ethernet, enabling up to 5 extra stepper motor drivers, 5 extruder heater outputs, and 5 endstop inputs with LED indicators. It also adds 6 controlled fan outputs, 5 thermistor inputs, and supports 2 additional thermocouple or PT100 daughter boards. An optional 5V external power input allows powering servos and fans, making it ideal for 3D printers or machines requiring more axes, multiple drivers per axis, or tool changers.

Connectivity |
Supplied with the 50 way connector cable between the Duet 2 and the DueX. |
Stepper Drivers |
Super quiet TMC2660 stepper drivers with 2.4A Peak per stepper channel. |
High Current Outputs |
5x extruder heater outputs, 5A individual maximums with a 20A overall maximum. |
Medium Current Outputs |
6 PWM controllable outputs designed for fans. These can be run from either the input voltage, from 12V or from 5V (the setting effects all 6 outputs together). |
IO |
The heater signals can be repurposed to drive 5V hobby servos. |
Temperature Measurement |
5 thermistor/PT1000 inputs. |
Voltage |
12-24V. |
