NOTE: For improved linearity of analog potentiometers, select one that is less than or equal to the
motor's internal pull-up resistor. For example, if the motor's pull-up resistor is 5 kohm, use a
potentiometer that is no greater than 5 kohm.

Knowing the SmartMotor's internal schem-
atic can be useful when designing
external interfaces. SmartMotor I/O is
logic 0 for voltages below 1.2V and logic
1 for voltages above 3.0V. Note that logic
states for voltages between these are
unpredictable.
