Circuit Documentation
Summary
This circuit integrates an Arduino Nano microcontroller with an NRF24L01 wireless transceiver module and multiple 3-pin male connectors, which are likely used for connecting actuators or sensors that require PWM, ground, and power connections. The Arduino Nano provides control logic and interfaces with the NRF24L01 module to enable wireless communication capabilities. The 3-pin male connectors are interfaced with the Arduino Nano's digital pins and are powered by the 5V output from the Arduino Nano.
