GOBM5Unit-FLASHLIGHT
Overview
SKU:U152
Unit FlashLight is an output unit with a built-in flashlight, containing an AW3641 driver and a white LED with a color temperature of 5000 ~ 5700K. There is a mode selection switch on the internal PCB that allows you to choose between flash mode and constant light mode, using a GPIO input interface. It can be used as a flash source or for lighting applications.

Mode selection switch (S1)
UnitFlashLight (U152) has an on-board mode selection switch (silkscreen S1, SPDT type)
that selects between Flash and Torch mode by wiring the AW3641E FLASH pin to +5V or GND.
The switch is not connected to the host MCU and cannot be read from software. Flip it
on the PCB before powering the unit:
- Flash side: use
unit.flash(Brightness, duration_ms)— short pulsed flash (<= 220 ms) - Torch side: use
unit.torch(duration_ms)— steady ~214 mA illumination (<= 1.3 s)
