Create® 3
On the TurtleBot 4, the connection of the User Interface board with the Create® 3 robot is only
through the VBAT connector J7, which uses JST XH-style connector. The connector has been
marked with Positive and Negative signs on the board (Positive being pin 1). The VBAT line is
fused with a PTC fuse rated at 2A.

The Create® 3 power adapter also supplies the Raspberry Pi 4 with power and communication
through a USB 2.0 (Type C) on both the TurtleBot 4 and TurtleBot 4 Lite. The USB interface can
supply up to 3A at 5V.

Warning
It is recommended to not drain the robot below 20% as VBAT voltage begin to decline sharply at
this level.
