Assembled & Tested RoboProp

RoboProp is an advanced robot controller board with an integrated L298 full H-Bridge for driving two DC motors.

RoboProp Features:

  • 4.000″x3.050″ standard form factor with standard mounting hole pattern
  • Designed to fit onto BOE-BOT as an upgrade
  • Designed to fit Dagu “Mr. Basic” and “Arduino Motor” robot platforms
  • Parallax Propeller processor with eight 32 bit cores running at 100Mhz
  • 64KB EEPROM
  • uSD for data logging and program storage
  • L298 full H-bridge driver with up to 2.5A drive with large heat sink per motor (3A peak)
  • optional current sense resistors
  • 8 channel / 12 bit ADC for 3-pin 5V sensors (MCP3208)
  • up to 24 channels for servos or digital inputs
  • Mikronauts I2C connector for upcoming Mikronauts I2C modules
  • HCOMM connector for programming via Propeller Plug, or Mikronauts SerPlug
  • EXP connectors for breadboards and Mikronauts modules
  • can use FlexMem for SRAM/FLASH/FRAM/MRAM memory expansion (uses 6-8 I/O pins)
  • can add upcoming MCP3208 module for an additional 8 analog input channels (uses 4 I/O pins)
  • can stack on other Mikronauts CPU boards and breadboards with stacking headers for EXP1/EXP2
  • two small high-density prototype areas
  • screw terminals for Vin/GND, MotorA, MotorB
  • on-board 5V and 3.3V regulation
  • RoboPropDiag diagnostic software for testing and exercising ADC/SERVO/L298 features included
  • uses OBEX objects for pwm, servos and ADC
  • fsrw26 modified for RoboProp’s uSD settings included
  • extra mounting holes for sensors and other platforms
