Setting the sensor ports for 5V or 3.3V
Warning! This modification requires opening your KIPR Link case, which will
void your warranty. KIPR assumes no liability for the accuracy of these
instructions and following them is strictly at your own risk regarding any
damage which might occur to either person or equipment employed.
By default the digital and analog sensor ports on the KIPR Link are set to p5V on the
V
cc
rail,
which is also the nominal voltage for the
SEN
rail. This is internally jumper selectable to be 5V or
+3.3V. There are separate jumpers for the analog rails (0-7) and the digital rails (8-15). The powered
sensors offered in the Botball Store (https://botballstore.com) will function properly for either setting,
but that may not be true for sensors you construct yourself.
Before opening your KIPR Link case, make sure your work area is static free, and keep in mind that
opening your KIPR Link case voids your KIPR Link warranty. A grounding strap is strongly recommended
for performing this modification. As common sense would dictate, be sure your KIPR Link charger is not
plugged into the KIPR Link before you proceed.
Step 1
: Remove the 4 corner screws that hold the bottom half of the
KIPR Link case to its top. These are socketed for a Torx #7 screw driver
(available from most hardware stores).
Step 2
: Lift off the bottom half of the KIPR Link case and disconnect the battery, then remove the
(single) Phillips head screw attaching the circuit board to the top half of the KIPR Link case.
