Power Module
Overview
The power module delivers stable power for your micromouse.
It includes the Li-Po battery, voltage regulator, and power distribution circuit.
Objectives
- Learn basic power regulation
- Design and simulate a 3.3 V regulated system
- Protect components from surges or shorts
Circuit Components
| Component | Function |
|---|---|
| Li-Po Battery (2S 7.4 V) | Power source |
| Voltage Regulator (AMS1117-3.3 V) | 7.4 V → 3.3 V logic line |
| Decoupling Capacitors | Filter noise and ripple |
| Power Switch & JST Connector | System control & recharge port |
Deliverable
A schematic that outputs 3.3 V and GND rails for the MCU and sensors.
Design this in Fusion 360 or KiCad, then verify output with a multimeter.
