    Features:

    In addition to support for CAN and other advanced communication protocols, the Talon SRX includes a compilation of smaller features that add up to a robust all-inclusive motor speed controller.
    • CAN and Digital IO protocols augment motor speed control with direct sensor feedback
    • Onboard closed-loop PID control algorithms make complex motor control accessible to all teams
    • Full aluminum case, passive cooling fins, and sophisticated internal components make fans optional
    • Completely sealed enclosure prevents debris from getting anywhere it shouldn't be
    • Electrically insulated components allow for direct controller mounting to a robot frame with no fear of shorting
    • LED indicators blink proportionately to output speed for easier debugging
    • Illuminated "Brake / Coast Calibration" button enables one-touch setting changes and calibration
    • Robust embedded power & output cables will never shake loose during a match
    • Built-in pockets sized for #8 nuts and zip tie grooves make rigid mounting simpler than ever
    • Integrated sign-magnitude synchronous rectification reduces heat generation at full motor stall
    • 15 kHz output switching frequency ensures smooth and precise motor control
    Works with this cable: Talon SRX Data Cable, 6 in (am-2617)

      Go-to controller for closed loop

      Just that - this has absolutely become our go-to controller for closed loop operations. No setting up PID loops in programming, just connect a sensor and tell it what you want it to do - and it does it! Especially when coupled with current limiting options, this is the biggest controls revolution since I've been involved in FRC (2012) - bigger than the switch from cRIO to RoboRIO, probably bigger than the introduction of Java a few years before.

      Very flexible motor controller

      The SRX has CAN, serial and PWM. It can handle a lot of power for its size. I wish they were a little cheaper, but you get a lot for the money.

      Upgraded older part.

      We have used the previous Talon motor controls for several years. This upgraded one has some improvements, but the break out board for the Limit switches and analog signals is too delicate and hard to use. It takes a very experienced solder technician to be able to solder wires on the pads provided. A better arrangement would be a through hole that a wire is soldered into.

      Robot Mechanics

      This is very good of the speed control system for the engine and made my test of our Arduino and then this system, it's all to help the engine to the minimum and maximum speed must link with 12V 17Ah up, is strong with strength to the engine and is very good in quality to the test, and all good to help mechanics to our robotics.
