survey_of_talon_srx_breakouts

So far as we know, there is no perfect breakout board for the talon SRX 10-pin “data port” connector.

COTS boards

Custom boards from other teams

Criteria for judging boards

Most of these can be answered yes/no for each board.

  • used/tried ever by Eastbots
  • access to all data port functions without switching to a different board
  • support for 3.3v and 5v analog sensors
  • simple, pure passive hookup board: no extra components
  • power status LED
  • limit switch status LEDs
  • 3-pin connectors (ground,power,signal) for active limit switches like hall-effect sensors
  • encoder status LED(s). full set of three (A/B/index), or partial?
  • 10-pin male connector for hookup to 10-pin encoders, while still using limit switches
  • somthing to aid in CAN bus daisy-chain hookup

(TODO: discussion about which of these we think are important)

The giant table

TODO: table listing all criteria for all breakout boards.
