Accessories installation and use

This section introduces the installation and use of 01Studio CanMV K230 related accessory modules.

Heat sink

The heat sink can help CanMV K230 dissipate heat more effectively, especially in high temperature environments to achieve stable operation. Installation is also very simple. Tear off the 3M adhesive at the bottom of the heat sink and stick it on the silk screen frame of K230 and memory chip. Because the heat sink is conductive, be careful not to contact other components (capacitors, resistors) on the circuit board during installation to avoid short circuits.

Acrylic protection plate

The function of the acrylic base plate is to prevent the bottom of the PCB from short-circuiting with other metal objects and to prevent the solder pins from scratching the desktop. At the same time, the space created at the bottom also improves the heat dissipation effect.

The installation method of the CanMV K230 acrylic base plate is very simple. Tear off the acrylic protective film, embed the copper column in the middle, and tighten the upper and lower ends with M2.5 screws.

shell

The function of the shell is to completely wrap and effectively protect the development board. Users can purchase: Click to Buy>>

Here is the assembly tutorial:

First make sure you have the following:

• 01Studio CanMV K230 motherboard x1
• Shell x1
• Acrylic top cover x1
• Acrylic bottom plate x1
• M2.5*8+3 single-pass copper column x4
• M2.5*4 double-pass copper column x4
• M2.5*5 cross flat head screw x8

Step 1: Install the two copper pillars into the 4 holes as shown in the figure below and tighten them:

Then install the board into the shell from bottom to top:

Tear off the transparent acrylic protective film on the top cover:

Fix it to the top with screws:

The bottom cover acrylic is also operated in the same way:

At this point, the assembly is complete:

The top cover can be equipped with a cooling fan. Note that the fan screws are installed from bottom to top.

Connect the cooling fan power cable to the red and black pin headers shown in the figure below, and supply 5V power.

A 3.5-inch LCD MINI screen can also be installed on the back. First assemble the screen from the back of the development board, then put it into the shell and screw on the top cover.
