OpenServo Version 4 Development log

Detailing the design and construction of the OpenServo Version 4

Discussion about this page can be found here:-

Agreed points to date (16/02/2010)

PCB to be smaller. Possibly small enough for micro servos
EMF to go. It didn't serve the purpose well enough
Temperate sensor to stay
Power distribution needs consideration
Jumper pin configuration system needs consideration
GPIO pads need consideration
Additional protocol support (in hardware at least) needs to be discussed
FET bridge needs new revision. Do we go back to single chip drivers, or use discrete FETs and transistors?

If you would like to contribute to Version 4 discussion, please see the link at the top of this page. Thank you.
