Matek F405-TE 8S PDB 11xPWM Flight Controller
Overview of the Matek F405-TE Flight Controller
The Matek F405-TE is a high-performance flight controller with an integrated 8S PDB and 11xPWM outputs, designed specifically for FPV pilots. Powered by a 168MHz STM32F405RGT6 processor, it delivers fast data processing and precise control. It features an ICM42688-P IMU (SPI) for accurate motion data and an SPL06-001 barometer (I2C) for altitude measurements, ensuring reliable flight performance. The built-in AT7456E OSD provides clear FPV overlays, while the MicroSD slot serves as a blackbox. With 6x UARTs and a Softserial-TX option (INAV/BF), plus 11x PWM outputs (8x Dshot-compatible with BF/ArduPilot), it offers ultimate flexibility. An I2C interface, 4x ADC (VBAT, Current, RSSI, Airspeed), and a spare PINIO complete the package. It supports 4x individual ESC pads and a G/S1/S2/S3/S4 pad group for 4in1 ESC signals, with a built-in inverter on UART2-RX for SBUS and switchable dual camera input.
PDB Specifications of the Matek F405-TE
The Matek F405-TE handles input voltages from 9~36V (3~8S LiPo) and features a PDB with 4x 35A (max. 4x 50A). It includes a 5V 1.5A BEC, a 12V 2A BEC, and a 3.3V 200mA LDO to power all components reliably. The current sensor supports up to 220A (3.3V ADC, INAV/BF scale 150, ArduPilot 66.7 A/V), and a 1K:20K voltage divider ensures accurate battery readings (INAV scale 2100, BF scale 210, ArduPilot BATT_VOLT_MULT 21.0).
Firmware Support
The Matek F405-TE supports leading firmwares: ArduPilot (MatekF405-TE), INAV (MATEKF405TE_SD), and BetaFlight (MATEKF405TE_SD), making it versatile for various FPV setups.
