A direct connection of your custom circuit to the RC backup battery would violate <R73>. This was clarified by an official Q&A response by the GDC here.
Per <R55> your custom circuit must be powered either via a 20A circuit from your breaker panel, or by one (or more) of the +5V pin(s) on the Robot Controller. I assume that you meant to say that the Robot Controller's backup battery will allow your custom circuit to continue running during minor power fluctuations. |
Richard,
Team 358 posted a
clarification to their question, and the GDC allowed teams to use the +7.2V "PWM pins" for power.
