An Integrated Control Platform Designed for Voron

The LDO Leviathan V1.3 is designed specifically for high-performance Voron builds. It focuses not only on core functionality, but on making the entire electronics system clean, stable, serviceable, and ready for future upgrades.

Every aspect of the design—from the onboard driver layout and Raspberry Pi integration to flexible USB, CAN, and UART connectivity—is driven by practical build requirements.

Key Highlights

• High-performance MCU architecture for advanced control demands
• 7 onboard stepper drivers for both standard axes and high-voltage applications
• Raspberry Pi mounting and power support for cleaner system integration
• Supports USB, CAN, and UART communication
• Designed around Voron platform needs for easier wiring and long-term maintenance

Compatibility That Gives You Room to Grow

The Leviathan V1.3 is purpose-built for high-performance Klipper-based platforms like the Voron 2.4 and Trident. For Voron-focused builders, it delivers a complete and unified electronics foundation that simplifies the build process.

On the connectivity front, it supports USB, CAN, and UART, giving you the freedom to choose the setup that best matches your machine's architecture. For most users, USB offers the most straightforward and hassle‑free starting point—just plug and play. When your build calls for a CANBus configuration, the board is ready to integrate smoothly.

The Leviathan also provides dedicated mounting points and power support for Raspberry Pi 3, 4, 5, and Zero 2W, helping you keep your electronics tidy. And if you ever need additional motor control down the road, it can be paired with an expansion board for even greater capability.

Clear Setup, Defined Configuration Path

The Leviathan V1.3 is designed with a clear setup path for power, wiring, and firmware configuration. The mainboard itself uses a 24V primary power input, while the high-voltage driver section can be configured for either 24V or 48V depending on the build.

FAQ

Q1: Which printers is the Leviathan V1.3 designed for?

A1: It is primarily designed for high-performance platforms like the Voron 2.4 and Trident. While it can work in other custom builds, you'll need to verify compatibility and configuration details yourself.

Q2: What communication options does it support?

A2: It supports USB, CAN, and UART. For most users, USB is the simplest and most hassle‑free way to get started.

Q3: What’s the biggest difference between V1.3 and the previous version?

A3: The core upgrades are a more powerful MCU and improved protection circuitry. Think of it as a performance platform upgrade—while keeping the same overall compatibility you'd expect.

Q4: Does it support 48V?

A4: Yes, it does. However, you must distinguish between the power supply zones: the motherboard itself and the high-voltage driver section do not share the same power supply logic.

Q5: How many onboard drivers does it have?

A5: It comes with 7 drivers total—enough for standard Voron builds. If you need more, expansion options are available.

Q6: Can I use it with a Raspberry Pi?

A6: Absolutely. It has dedicated mounting points and power support for Raspberry Pi 3, 4, 5, and Zero 2W, making for a much cleaner overall setup.
