Description

A programmable coin acceptor with a power and signal module that runs it from USB-C and sends your microcontroller a clean logic-level pulse. For arcade cabinets, vending and escape rooms.

Highlights

• No 12 V supply to find. The module boosts USB-C to the 12 V the acceptor needs.
• Logic-level output. Jumper-select a 3.3 V or 5 V pulse to match your board, so there is no level shifting to work out.
• Up to six coin types. Assign a pulse value to each coin and train the acceptor on real coins, with no PC needed.

In the box

• 1 × arcade coin acceptor, 12 V, with a two-digit display and three buttons
• 1 × USB-C power and signal module
• 1 × wiring harness, acceptor to module
• 4 × mounting screws with nuts
• 1 × test token
• 1 × printed quick-start guide

Specifications

• Module supply: 5 V 2 A via USB-C
• Acceptor supply: 12 V, from the module
• Signal output: 3.3 or 5 V

Works with

Any 3.3 V or 5 V microcontroller, including ESP32-S3, ESP32, Arduino and Raspberry Pi Pico. Sample code for Arduino IDE, ESP-IDF and MicroPython.
