Genuine STM32 CPU, Silent Trinamic TMC2225 Stepper Drivers, 512K Memory, Includes a bootloader. NO knock-offs here. These are GENUINE Creality V4.2.7 board with the STM32F103 RET6 CPU.
What does this board do? This is a budget silent board from Creality themselves. It is a decent low-cost alternative to our EZBoard. This board is supported in our Unified 2 firmware multiple 3D printer models (see below). If a printer is not specifically listed below, it is not officially supported by our firmware.
Features/Details
- Genuine Creality V4.2.7 board with Trinamic TMC2225 Drivers
- Guaranteed Genuine STM32 CPU – With manufacturers swapping out STM32 CPUs in favor of knock-off chips, we are opening and checking EVERY board before shipment to ensure it has a genuine STM32 CPU on it as well as what memory size they have.
- 512K Flash Memory with EEPROM support
- This board has a bootloader that allows updating the firmware from the MicroSD card
- Uses MicroUSB Cable to Connect (not included)
- Works with the below printers:
- CR-10
- CR-10S
- CR-10 Mini
- CR-10S Mini
- CR-10 S4
- CR-10S S4
- CR-10 S5
- CR-10S S5
- Ender 2 Pro – Requires our stepper motor cables
- Ender 3/3 Pro
- Ender 3 NEO
- Ender 3 V2
- Ender 3 V2 NEO
- Ender 3 MAX
- Ender 3 MAX NEO
- Ender 5/5 Pro
- Ender 5 machines will likely need our LCD EMI filter board due to how Creality designed this board.
- Ender 5 Plus – LCD Kit Required and Dual Cable LCD Adapter Board Required
- Unified 2 Firmware included FREE via digital download – Ships with Testing Firmware, you will need to flash it for your machine with a SD card and a Computer
- Compatible with EZABL, EZOut Filament Sensor Kits, and BL Touch Probes
- VREF is set with the pots next to each driver – Make sure to set the VREF for your machine. Refer to Creality documentation for the VREFs for their printers.
- If using the Dual Cable LCD adapter board please read the installation page here for it: https://support.th3dstudio.com/helpcenter/creality-dual-cable-lcd-adapter-board-installation/
CR-10 Model Support Notes (Read this BEFORE buying for a CR-10 Series)CR-10 (Regular, Mini, S4 S5)
- Models with 2 separate Z Motor connectors need the Dual Z Motor Adapter Addon
- MOSFET needed for the bed if your machine does not already have one (addon above)
CR-10S (Regular, Mini, S4 S5)
- Needs Creality Dual Cable LCD Adapter Board if you do not have the EXP3 header on your LCD.
- If you have the EXP3 header on your LCD use 1 cable to connect from the EXP3 to our board and you will then not need the dual adapter board.
- Models with 2 separate Z Motor connectors need the Dual Z Motor Adapter Addon
- MOSFET needed for the bed if your machine does not already have one (Found here)
- Does NOT work with Touch Screen Models
Important Information
- Make sure to have an active cooling fan over the board to keep it cool. The Trinamic drivers run warmer than boards with the “standard” (aka 4988 series) drivers.
- On some machines, the EMI filter board addon is required, specifically Ender 5 machines.
- Because the stepper drivers are not connected to UART for control (they are in standalone mode) Linear Advance does not work on this board. If you are not going to use Linear Advance (most people do not) then this does not apply to you.
- If you want to use Linear Advance we recommend using our EZBoard instead as it works correctly with Linear Advance.

Used this card to replace the a bad board on a used (broken) Ender 2 Pro. Perfect fit and function, and supports the EZABL Pro as well. Firmware easy to modify and compile with VSCode.

Very nice board. It is a very much silent and smooth board and the firmware is easy to compile and install. Thanks to Tim Hoogland and his staff for their valuable work.

The board was easy to install and configure. I am very pleased with the silent stepper motor drivers. The software features in the universal code are nice. One menu I wish was added would be a menu to format the SD.

Hi there – The firmware doesn’t support formatting SD cards on any machine. Its not even a feature available in Marlin (which is what the backend code is for our firmware).

installed in a Cr 10s now the machine is silent. Firmware was easy to compile, if you have two z motors(be sure to check) and order the adapter and also invert the z in the firmware if you try and go up and it goes down

Installed this board today and its silky smooth! Much smoother and dam near silent. Buy from these guys with confidence. You get exactly what you order.

This makes the printer nearly silent and the quality seems a little better as well. Not sure why creality wouldn’t just go ahead and install this in every printer.
