Abstract :
Based on a thorough analysis of the function modules circuit in the SMA hexapod walking bio-robot, this paper accomplished the corresponding work of device selection, parameter setting and circuit design. After the software and hardware simulations of the designed circuit, we find the results consistent with the theoretical analysis, which accordingly verifies the validity of circuit design for the SMA hexapod walking bio-robot.
