The electronic is based on a PIC32 from Microchip.
I made all the schematic and the layout on Altium and then, I made the board on BatchPCB which has changed to OSH Park. The quality is very good and the price quite low (around 50$ for this board)
The mother board is composed of :
- PIC32MX795F512L
- RTC
- Audio module SOMO14D
- Accelerometer LIS2L02AS4
- Bluetooth module Free2move
- An eeprom

There is also a power board composed of 3 step-down integrated switching regulators (ISR) 1 PTR08100W for the legs power and 2 PTN78060W, 1 for the head, and one the 5v supply of the motherboard

Animabot is equipped with 2 infrared sensors GP2D12 (front and rear), and 18 servomotors Hitec HS311 connected to the motherboard.
