13. Current sense outputs
If you want access to the analog voltage output of the current-sensing circuitry for each of the motor
drivers, you can solder a 1×2 female header here.
14. Servo demultiplexer block
To access the servo demultiplexer inputs, you can solder a 2×3 female or male header here.
15. Servo outputs
Most servo cables have female ends, so we recommend soldering 3×4 male headers in to the two
servo output blocks. However, if you want to use the demux for something other than servos, the kits
has 3×4 female headers you can use instead.
16. Servo power selection
To use your servo ports, you will need to connect a power source (no power source is connected by
default). You can install two 1×3 male headers at this location and use two shorting blocks to select
either VCC or VADJ for servo power.
17. LCD backlight connection and structural support
If you choose to mount a 16×2 LCD on the Orangutan SVP as is done in the assembled version, you
will want to solder in the two single-pin female headers at this location. This prevents the LCD from
tipping down on to the board and also powers the backlight (if your LCD has one).
