Robot Hardware Interface Board
This repository contains @nichlock's design for our hardware interfacing board. This is the board which the board-interface package is designed to control.
Capabilities
This board is designed for our underwater robot, and connects to the Raspebrry Pi through the 40-pin header on the right. It has the following dedicated capabilities:
- 32 GPIO pins
- 32 PWM outputs
- 16 Analog inputs
- 8 Individual leak sensors
- 4 MOSFETs capable of driving 17A (connector limited)
- 2 Current sensors capable of 17A (connector limited, sensors are capable of 50A)
- 1 Microcontroller for I/O that needs constant attention
- 1 Configuration chooser, with 4 switches, for changing any setting on the fly
