Using LCD+2-4servos+AMP+...?

Post by rankor » Mon Dec 01, 2014 11:16 pm

I would like to use the LCD, the Bluetooth module, the AMP and 2-4 servos in one application. That isn't possible right? Not enough pins. So use 2 python boards and perhaps CAN?

Damien just posted the schematics for the LCD and AMP boards:
LCD: http://micropython.org/resources/LCD32M ... matics.pdf
AMP: http://micropython.org/resources/AMPv10-schematics.pdf

Looking at the LCD schematics, it looks like if its installed in the Y positions, then Y1/Y2/Y7 are unused.

Y1/Y2 is connected to UART6, so that could be used for bluetooth.

On the AMP, X1-X4 are unused, so they still be used for the servos.

So you should still be able to do what you want with a single pyboard.
