Hello, does anyone have this setup ?
Can you please tell me what pin you use control the TTL signal to laser ?
Because i think the mosfet logic is inverted.

So i found out PWM inverter circuit https://blog.eccentricworkshop.com/grbl-pwm-inverter-circuit/ and it seems to work ok.

Another type of solution could be to use photocoupler.
But i suggest to use faster type the PC817.
Hi, I had problem to convert 12v PWM output for fan(M106) to 5V TTL for Diode laser for Marlin control board. I found the documentation for optocoupler circuit to convert CMOS to TTL circuit.

Based on that, I fabricated the circuit on the image.

I used SKR v1.4 board and PC817 optocoupler. It worked quite well for Lightburn software.
PC817 optocoupler has in quite cheap price and fast switching speed enough for this application.
I use…

Or you can use some other PINs with PWM on motherboard
