About the Battery board

Battery board is an open source PCB design by reubenstr, published on GitHub under the MIT license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 98 × 160 mm, with 8 components from 4 distinct parts.

Other key parts include the HY2120-Module. By type, the board carries 4 modules and 2 connectors.

It belongs with the robotics & motion, power & battery and displays & leds designs in this gallery.

From the project

A quadruped robot dog!

All works in progress, PCBs on the way for testing, not for production.

There are currently two paths for controlling the servos and peripherals:

1) Expansion board: RPi 4 direct connect using PWM and ADC controllers of I2C

2) Motor Controller: Teensy is responsible for PWM and ADC at the expense of complex micro-ros.

RPi expansion board to control servo motors and other peripherals without using a microcontroller.
