philohome (Philippe Hurbain)

Philippe "Philo" Hurbain's site, the leading technical reference for LEGO electromechanics: motors, sensors, battery boxes, connectors, and the Power Functions system, spanning 20+ years of parts.

What it covers

• Hosts the official PF RC protocol PDF.
• Deep dives such as the PF Servo teardown; the well-known motor comparison tables; connector pinouts.
• Hurbain co-authored Extreme NXT (with Michael Gasperi) on custom sensors and internals.

The reference for hardware specs: voltages, currents, pinouts, and PWM behaviour. Complements RCX Internals (Kekoa Proudfoot) (digital protocol) with the electrical and mechanical side.
