Description

The Teledyne FLIR Lepton Thermal Imaging Camera Breakout Board V2 serves as a critical interface adapter, enabling developers and system integrators to seamlessly incorporate Teledyne FLIR’s miniature Lepton thermal imaging cores into their prototypes and products. The board handles all essential power sequencing and signal conditioning, accepting a broad 3V to 5.5V DC input and providing clean, regulated 1.2V and 2.8V rails via its dual low-noise LDOs.

Engineered for flexibility, the breakout provides direct access to the Lepton module’s SPI and I²C communication buses and includes a 25 MHz reference clock. Strategic jumpers allow designers to bypass the onboard power supplies and clock, offering greater control for advanced or custom hardware integration. The compact footprint and robust 32-pin Molex socket make it ideal for embedding into space-constrained, mobile, or industrial IoT applications requiring thermal sensing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What microcontrollers or platforms is this Teledyne FLIR Lepton breakout board compatible with?

The breakout board is universally compatible with any microcontroller or single-board computer featuring standard SPI or I2C interfaces. It is commonly used with Arduino, Raspberry Pi (using GPIO), ESP32, STM32, and other ARM Cortex-M based platforms. You simply connect the board's SPI (SCK, MOSI, MISO, CS) or I2C (SDA, SCL) pins to your host controller, provide 3-5.5V power, and communicate using the Teledyne FLIR Lepton SDK or open-source libraries.

How do I power the breakout board and what are the jumper settings for?

Supply 3V to 5.5V DC to the VIN and GND pins. The onboard LDOs generate 1.2V and 2.8V for the Lepton module. Jumpers allow you to bypass these LDOs if your system provides these voltages directly. Another jumper lets you bypass the onboard 25 MHz clock if your Lepton module uses an external clock. Refer to the board's silkscreen for jumper positions; default settings typically enable all onboard functions for plug-and-play operation with just a power connection.

Can I use this board with all versions of the Teledyne FLIR Lepton thermal camera module?

Yes, the breakout board V2 is designed to be compatible with all Teledyne FLIR Lepton series modules (Lepton 2.x, 3.x, etc.) that use the standard 32-pin Molex connector. The board provides the correct power sequencing, voltage levels, and communication interfaces required by the module. Ensure your specific Lepton module is seated correctly in the 32-pin socket. The electrical and communication protocol compatibility is maintained across the Lepton family via this standardized interface.
