Quantity | Component name | |
2 | × | DC Motors (geared) Connectors and Accessories / D-Subminiature Connectors |
1 | × | Case Frequency Control / Crystals |
1 | × | Battery (currently 9v but will switch to rechargeables) currently 9v but will switch to rechargeable Li-Po batteres |
2 | × | Wheels |
1 | × | PCB consisting of: |
1 | × | Atmega328P-PU Microcontroller Standard Arduino MCU. Will be used without bootloader. |
1 | × | L293D H-Bridge for controlling the DC Motors. |
1 | × | NRF24L01+ 2.4 GHz Communications module Using The NRF chip alone might seem cheaper and more efficient, but then we would have to design a more complex PCB and manufacture with better materials than cheap FR4. For now, we will stick to a daughterboard. |
1 | × | Power regulators Subject to change on future versions. |
1 | × | Supporting components including resistors, caps leds and connectors are not mentioned because each version will have a full BOM list published alongside the design files. |
