EE192: Mechatronics Design LabCheckpoint 4This checkpoint is largely a simple extension of the previous one, except the motor must be powered from the battery. Like checkpoint 2, this is so you can dedicate time to finishing and iterating on your circuit boards designs. Checkoff ProcedureMotor power must come from the battery and control signals must be generated by your microcontroller board running your code. You may use the serial terminal to send manual control signals (like setting the motor duty cycle). You may continue to power the microcontroller board from the USB port as you won't have your DC/DC boost converters yet. Your hardware should not be damaged (i.e. components should not catch fire) during any of these tests. Demonstrate your motor driver circuit works and is safe running from your battery (in any order, instructor's choice):
