Wiring and electronics
Notes written by Robotheca from the project's documents.
Main parts
- Robotis Dynamixel AX-12 servo motors for the legs.
- Jetson Nano 2GB developer board as the main computer.
- U2D2 converter for communicating with the Dynamixel servos.
- XH-M609 module for lithium polymer over-discharge protection.
- 11.1V lithium polymer battery (30C).
- Power switch and a joystick.
Connections
- The U2D2 converter links the Jetson Nano to the Dynamixel servo bus.
- The XH-M609 module sits between the lithium polymer battery and the power system to prevent over-discharge.
