# RaccoonLab Mini/Micro Nodes
Mini/Micro are general purpose CAN nodes. The functionality of these devices depends on the firmware they are running.
The default and most popular usage is as a PWM-CAN adapter to control ESCs and servos using CAN (Cyphal or DroneCAN) communication:
- Micro is the smallest node with 2 groups of pins (PWM/5V/GND) to control 2 servos or ESCs.
- Mini v2: Features 2 x PWM/5V/GND for controlling servos or ESCs and 2 x PWM/FB/GND for controlling and receiving feedback from ESCs via UART.
## Cyphal/DroneCAN CAN-PWM Adapter Firmware
_Cyphal/DroneCAN CAN-PWM_ firmwares are the default for Mini and Micro nodes.
These convert a typical PX4 CAN setpoint to PWM for controlling ESCs or servos.
Please refer to the corresponding RaccoonLab docs pages for details: [Cyphal/CAN-PWM](https://docs.raccoonlab.co/guide/can_pwm/cyphal.html), [DroneCAN-PWM](https://docs.raccoonlab.co/guide/can_pwm/dronecan.html).

## Cyphal & DroneCAN Rangefinder Firmware
The _Cyphal & DroneCAN Rangefinder_ firmware is a single firmware that can work in either Cyphal or DroneCAN mode.
It supports LW20/I2C, Garmin Lite v3/I2C and TL-Luna/UART lidars.
For details, please check the [Rangefinder](https://docs.raccoonlab.co/guide/can_pwm/rangefinder.html) page.

## DroneCAN Fuel Sensor Firmware
_DroneCAN fuel tank_ firmware is based on the [AS5600 sensor board](https://docs.raccoonlab.co/guide/as5600/).
Please refer to [DroneCAN Fuel Tank](https://docs.raccoonlab.co/guide/can_pwm/fuel_tank.html) for details.
## DroneCAN Servo Gripper Firmware
_DroneCAN servo gripper_ is part of a [Mini Node Template Application](https://github.com/RaccoonlabDev/mini_v2_node).
Please refer to [DroneCAN Servo Gripper](https://docs.raccoonlab.co/guide/can_pwm/servo_gripper.html) for details.
## Custom Firmware
**Custom firmware** can be developed by anyone.
If you require custom features, you can use the [Mini Node Template Application](https://github.com/RaccoonlabDev/mini_v2_node).
You can configure the external pins to work in UART, I2C or ADC mode.
From the box, it supports basic Cyphal/DroneCAN features.
It has publishers and subscribers as an example.
## Which node to choose?
The differences between [Mini v2](https://docs.raccoonlab.co/guide/can_pwm/can_pwm_mini_v2.html) and [Micro](https://docs.raccoonlab.co/guide/can_pwm/can_pwm_micro.html) are summarized in the table below.
For more details, please refer to the corresponding pages.
