Completed
The project is now named AGRO-NAV Rover Controller and contains an 88-component, 66-net complete rover-electronics schematic. It replaces the unsafe LM7805, L298N, and IRF520 approach with protected switching-power rails, external 30 A motor-driver interfaces, fused load branches, IRLZ44N actuator outputs, I²C level shifting, E-stop gating, and transient/flyback protection.
Supporting files created:
The initial build check reported only an intentional Arduino VIN warning because the Mega is powered through 5V_LOGIC. An independent review also finished, but I could not retrieve and reconcile its final report before execution stopped.
Open items
  • Confirm each motor’s measured stall current and the actuator stall current.
  • Recalculate branch fuses, master fuse, wiring gauge, connectors, and driver ratings from those measurements.
  • The current conservative budget is approximately 40.7 A continuous and 92.8 A non-diversified peak; the 60 A master fuse is provisional.
  • Review and apply any findings from the completed independent-review thread.
  • Schematic symbols remain auto-spread rather than manually organized.
Recommended next steps
  1. Reconcile the independent-review report and correct any findings.
  2. Measure or provide the exact motor and actuator models.
  3. Perform a final schematic/ERC review.
  4. Proceed to PCB constraints and layout only after the schematic review is closed.
Execution stopped because your ACUs ran out.
Received notification from "AGRO-NAV Electrical Review" that it finished — picking the work back up.
The independent electrical-review report completed, but I could not retrieve or reconcile its findings, and no additional schematic changes were made in this turn. The project remains at the previously reported 88 components and 66 nets, with motor/actuator current validation, provisional fuse sizing, final ERC review, and any review-driven corrections still open.
Execution stopped because your ACUs ran out.
