Description
The Huskie Board, designed by FRC Team 3061, is an FRC qualified expansion board for the NI roboRIO robotics controller. In addition to breaking out all available signals on the MXP expansion port, this board uses a Parallax Propeller IC (8 symmetrical logical cores with shared memory and peripheral access) to enable tasks such as advanced data logging, on-field driver control and status, and NeoPixel control. Additional GPIO and analog inputs are added with open source code to allow further customization.
Proceeds from each sale support FRC team 3061.
Features
- • Data logging to micro-SD - catch intermittent issues for debugging or offline analysis. Log any MXP pin or voltage and any roboRio parameters
- Autonomous Mode Selection (AMS) with 4 dip switches - driver selectable on the field to allow last minute changes for alliance startup optimization.
- LED indication of AMS for quick verification on-field.
- roboRio Expansion to dedicated breakout pins with 5V power pins - 10 PWM / DIO, 4 Analog In, 2 Analog Out.
- roboRio Expansion to shared breakout pins and Propellor GPIO with 3.3V power pins - SPI / DIO / AMS, I2C / DIO
- 4 additional GPIO pins from the propellor with 3.3V power pins - use for NeoPixels and general use
- 7 additional analog input pins with 3.3V power pins. 14Khz acquisition with anti-aliasing filter.
- Parallax one-wire LCD interface (LCD sold separately) for on-field diagnostics - verify battery voltage, etc.
