We will tape one wire to the positive side of one battery and tape a second wire to the negative side of another If we place less than 6 batteries into the holder, the TI-RSLK MAX chassis board battery, as shown in Figure 1.

TI’s TLV1117 linear regulator on the TI-RSLK chassis board provides +3.3V output for up to 800 mA. Assuming constant current, calculate the storage in mA-hr, and compare the measured value with the specification from the manufacturer.

Figure 6. MSP432 LaunchPad with +5V jumper removed. Table 1. Power modes for the TI-RSLK MAX robot. There are four power modes of the TI-RSLK MAX robot, See Table 1. As long as Again, insert six batteries into the holder, placing the two batteries with the taped the +5V jumper on the LaunchPad is removed, as shown in Figure 6, you can wires adjacent to each other, and attaching these two wires to a current meter.

Double check the connections software. • Check the datasheets for the TI-RSLK MAX chassis board First, test the line sensor by moving the robot left and right over a black tape 5.6 Things to think about placed over a white reflective surface. If the line sensor is about 3 mm from the tape, you should see data representing the distance of the robot to the center of In this section, we list thought questions to consider after completing this lab.
