Trinket M0

Published on 2017-09-19 in Pony Bot.

I recently dug out this robot for the maker faire (after seeing similar laser-cut ponies on the first day), and when I made the pwm shield for the Trinket M0, I decided that it would be the perfect brains. Using the ESP8266 alone with its 8 free pins all used for servos, with its software PWM kinda felt too hacky. I might still go back to an ESP87266 with a PCA9685 chip, we will see. For now, I’m using a Trinket M0 with a shield:

I will also need to think a bit about cable management:
