| | RE: Home-made Light Bricks
|
| The big advantage of using LEDs is that you can control two lights from a single RCX output. As long as you don't want them to light at the same time. They also use less power than light bulbs. Now what we really need is a de-multiplexer, to drive (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)

| | RE: Home-made Light Bricks
|
| I would avoid exceeding the current rating on a LED, even for a fast pulse. It's much easier to design a circuit with the proper current limiting resistor, then to experiment with pulse widths. A wrong pulse width, with no current limiting, will fry (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)

| | RE: Home-made Light Bricks
|
| I brought up the pulsing in connection with a de-multiplexer, not to avoid the resistor. If you just want to hook up a pair of LEDs to the RCX motor output, by all means, use a proper resistor, and use forward/stop/reverse settings only. Not using (...)

| Anyone have any experience with this software? Being a Mac user, I'm jealuous of all the lDraw activity in my midst... :-) I found a copy in a nearby store for about $10... I'm tempted to get it, just for the pure geek factor. (And maybe I can hack (...) (25 years ago, 7-Feb-00, to lugnet.cad)
