Voltage Output

Voltage Output

Node that outputs a voltage between 0 volts and the battery voltage (3.2 - 4.2V). The Node is using Pulse-width modulation and can be used on any place on the Quirkbot.

Connections

Inputs

  • in
    • Range: 0 - 1
    • Form 0 volts to battery voltage.
  • place
    • Values: any place
    • Choose where to read the input.

Comment

The Maximum voltage is limited to the how much charge is currently in the battery. The maximum current that can safely be used from the BP1 - BP6 is around 40mA. The Arms, Legs and Horn is protected by current limiting resistors, but the Backpack connector is not, so take great care when experimenting with them, Never physically connect two backpack places directly, or even with an LED (without a resistor). This may damage the Quirkbot!
