Re: Cypress board LAYOUT

Be aware that the 9v battery is not legal for use according to 2010 game rules.
Only the batteries spelled out in the rules are permissible.
The IO Board must use a USB cable to connect to the Classmate.

Although, it can be used on the robot with stepped down power from the 12v competition battery, then you do get a little more power.

My slides target the casual users, rather than the advanced ones. At the time I was trying to reduce the number of slides being presented, this being a very small part of a larger post-Kickoff workshop. These are only a starting point.

Eventually, I'll have to put a lot more useful information together for some future workshop specifically on the IO board, but that'll be if it's retained by FRC in 2011.
