Re: 2015 Beta Testing - The Components are Here.
Until we hear otherwise on the power supply added to the PWM pins from the MXP port issue, would it be safe to say:
"A really good approach would be to use the MXP port PWM pins to drive motor controllers, and the MXP DIO pins for sensors, that do not get their power over the PWM cable. Use the PWM and DIO on the edge of the RoboRio for all sensors, servo, motors etc that do get their power from the PWM cable."?
Personally I believe FIRST will more than likely approve an expansion board that provides power to these connections that is sourced from the PDB. In the mean time, we need to work with what we have.
