3 MS3PRO HARDWARE
3 MS3Pro hardware
3.1 Overview
The MS3Pro Ultimate is a full standalone ECU with everything you need to run sequential fuel injection on up to
12 cylinders. This ECU is based on the previous MegaSquirt-III design and runs similar code, but we’ve upgraded
the feature set, and put it in a waterproof enclosure with high current, vibration resistant AMPSEAL connectors.
Here are the MS3Pro Ultimate’s specifications.
Hardware features:
• Freescale MC9S12X 16 bit, 50 MHz asymmetrical dual core processor
• 10 peak and hold injector drivers with software selectable peak current
• 8 logic level ignition outputs
• 3 high current (5 amp) general purpose outputs - 2 can be reconfigured as additional injector drivers
• 5 medium current (3 amp), high frequency general purpose outputs - 2 can be reconfigured as additional
spark outputs
• 2 medium current (3 amp), low frequency general purpose outputs
• 1 stepper H-bridge driver
• 4 VR sensing differential inputs - supports VR, Hall effect, and optical input
• Optoisolated input for RPM input from negative terminal of an ignition coil
• 12 volt tach output
• Fuel pump output
• Onboard 4 bar MAP and 1 bar barometric pressure sensors
• 13 analog inputs (5 dedicated sensor inputs, 8 general purpose)
• 11 general purpose on/off or low frequency inputs
• 3 general purpose frequency inputs
• 2 DSP based knock inputs
• RS232, USB 2.0, and CAN communication
• Onboard SD card for internal data logging
• Internal ECU temperature sensor
• Real time clock
• Keep alive power
• Temperature range: -30 to +80 degrees C (-40 to +85 without battery for real time clock)
• Minimum supply voltage: 6.0 volts
• Maximum supply voltage: 18.0 volts before triggering overvoltage protection circuits
Software features:
• Supports speed density, alpha-N, or MAF based fuel and spark tables with option to blend between any two
load types
• 1 microsecond injector pulse width resolution
• Tables for nonlinear injector behavior at small pulse widths
