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.
In most cases on FIRST robots, we have more material than in we need in some places and less than we need in others. That single phenomenon is the leading cause of robot failures. - Paul Copioli [more]
