Hello, my name is Nathan Bell and I am also Radarbell on brickshelf. I just found out that this club exists, and am interested in finding out more or possibly joining but do not know anyone yet. Are there any technic builders in this club? Do you (...) (19 years ago, 5-Dec-06, to lugnet.org.us.bloc)

| | Mickey's Diner in St Paul MN
|

Hello, A while ago, when I was deeper into my diner phase, I built a diner inspired by Mickey’s in St. Paul, MN. I was inspired to build it by looking at the works of painter John Baeder. (His work also inspired my AlMac’s Diner, which I later found (...) (19 years ago, 5-Dec-06, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.town)

(...) If I'm understanding things correctly, could something like this work? (URL) appears to be able to take 2.5 - 5.5v in and give up to 5v out at up to 90mA. It would be great if it could be powered from the sensor port directly instead of having (...) (19 years ago, 5-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) I'd say its worth a try from the 4.3v supply from the NXT. I note that the SP03 spec. says it has a 3v regulator onboard, so its not really running from 5v anyhow. The I2C signals are open drain, so they should be ok unless their inputs won't (...) (19 years ago, 5-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) It sounds like the NXT probably doesn't have enough power available to run that chip, but you might look at using a BUC (Boost-Up Converter) component to bring the 4.3V supply up to a higher level?
