Pololu Orangutan LV-xx8 - Manual (Page 3)

• removable 8-character x 2-line LCD
• buzzer tied to one of the mega168’s hardware PWMs
• 3 user pushbutton switches
• 2 user LEDs
• user potentiometer optionally jumpered to ADC7
Features Specific to the Orangutan LV-168
• An integrated step-up regulator allows for 2 – 5 V input voltage, making the LV-168 ideal for powering low-
voltage, high-current motors and 5V peripheral electronics from 2 – 4 NiMH cells.
• The discrete, low-voltage H-bridge can supply a continuous 2 A per motor channel (5 A maximum).
• A temperature sensor optionally connected to ADC6 gives limited feedback about board temperature.
Features Specific to the Orangutan SV-168 and SV-328
• An integrated 5V switching regulator can provide up to 3 A from an input voltage of 6 – 13.5 V, allowing you
to power servos and other high-power peripherals for which the battery voltage would be too high.
• The TB6612FNG dual motor driver can supply a continuous 1 A per motor channel (3 A maximum) and
supports ultrasonic PWM frequencies (up to 80 kHz).
• Battery voltage self-monitoring is optionally connected to ADC6 through a voltage divider.
