A power module crafted from years of voltage-regulating design experience, the 6V Servo Power Injector packages industry-leading power regulation into a truly tiny form factor! It’s designed to pull power from a 12V battery and regulate it down to 6V (at up to 24A) to power servos—particularly in applications utilized by teams participating in the FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC).
The Servo Power Injector offers six TJC8 servo input and output connectors. Each input connector directly passes the control signal to the output connectors, while the output connectors distribute the 6V at 24A source—rather than the 5V out of a standard REV Control or Expansion hub.
Safety and electrical robustness are both core components of the design. The switch doesn’t allow power to flow to the output ports until a PWM signal greater than 500µs is detected thru the input ports of the Power Injector. This protects against a user plugging the output of the servo hub into the controlling device, which may operate at a different voltage level.
The Injector also features reverse voltage protection and integrates a constant-voltage, constant-current step down controller, allowing the output voltage to fall if the current pulled from the device is above the maximum. This protection feature creates a seamless experience in over-current events. A dynamic temperature limit reduces the constant current target for the regulator as the temperature changes in real time. This functionality provides excellent protection without disabling the output (in comparison to other voltage-regulating devices). Note: The regulator is designed to push the full 24A at 6V for 2 minutes and 30 seconds at room temperature, ensuring seamless operation without loss of performance during a standard FTC match.
