BIGTREETECH Octopus V1.1 Control Board

BIGTREETECH Octopus is a very powerful motherboard with 8 stepper driver ports, so this motherboard can control up to 8 different axes. This feature is especially suitable for multicolored printing and tool changers, for the use of different tools / modules such as different 3D print heads, laser engraving, laser cutting etc. All fantasies and ideas of modifications can be realized.

BIGTREETECH SKR Pico V1.0 Control Board Compatible with Raspberry PI

The BigTreeTech SKR Pico Controller achieves all the same essential functions as the BBT SKR mini E3, but with a smaller form factor and a focus on fully harnessing the power of Raspberry Pi. Because of this specific intention, the BBT SKR Pico had no need to waste space on display ports or bulky MicroSD card readers. With the Klipper system, you are easily able to monitor and begin your prints remotely with a wireless connection.

While we can’t in good time go into depth about the array of cool features on this tiny Controller Board, these 3 key features are what made us most excited:

• 133MHz Raspberry Pi PR2040 dual-core ARM processor – The BBT SKR Pico Controller received its name from its own dual-core processor which Makers may recognize as the Raspberry Pi Pico Microcontroller. This PR2040 chip is integrated straight into the 32-bit controller board and provides a fantastic processing power of 133MHz! We are adoring the boost in functionality this union gives us with support for TMC2209 drivers in UART mode and native support for Klipper.
• Optimized Heat Sink – Providing both a modern look and superior heat dissipation, the optimized heat sink sits other 4 Motor Drivers on the BTT SKR Pico Motherboard. Keeping your Electronics cool is a necessary priority for all Tinkerers, as losing precious components to overheating is always a sad moment. During heavy computations, any heat from the BTT SKR Pico drivers will be efficiently dissipated before affecting the rest of the board or Raspberry Pi in close proximity. Although most controller boards include overheat protection, this heat sink addition is a welcome precaution that ensures your 3D Printer runs smoothly during intense prints.
• Compact and Clever Design – the size of this SKR Pico makes it perfect to integrate into most printer builds, especially the Voron V0.1. BigTreeTech facilitates this by having connections lateral for its integration with Raspberry Pi and improving access and general cooling. The BTT SKR Pico Motherboard is the same dimensions as the Raspberry Pi 4 B Model, with matching mounting holes. The Raspberry Pi Zero is also a great choice to mount over a smaller section of the motherboard, leaving additional hookups more accessible such as the RGB LED Lighting and BLTouch ports.

On top of this, the SKR Pico includes a USB Type-C port for another option to connect your Raspberry Pi or computer. These thoughtful details show the utmost care placed in BigTreeTech designs. The SKR Pico includes the best the BigTreeTech SKR boards have to offer, such as an SMD Fuse, Sensorless Homing, Murata Capacitors, 5 motor interfaces, and filament run-out detection circuit, proximity sensor port and BLTouch compatibility. The amount packed into this convenient and impressive controller makes the BTT SKR Pico Motherboard worth the upgrade!
