🔌 Wiring Guide
| RPLIDAR Pin | Adapter PCB | MCU Connection |
|---|---|---|
| Motor (+5V) | PWM (Red wire) | MCU PWM pin (e.g., Arduino D9) |
| UART TX | TX (Green wire) | MCU RX pin |
| UART RX | RX (Blue wire) | MCU TX pin |
| GND | GND (Black wire) | Common ground |
âš Â Note:
-
Ensure 5V power supply for the RPLIDAR motor (draws ~200mA).
-
Use 3.3V logic for Raspberry Pi (or add a level shifter).
