What's Happening?? (Or, trying to spark some interaction) I currently am working on a few hardware projects for the Handy-Board.. As I may have described earlier.. Current projects include 4 boards, each on a PC slightly smaller than the (...) (29 years ago, 26-Jun-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

My earlier posting has left me thinking.. (Suprise!) A MUCH more efficient way of doing PWM would be to use another 'HC11. The counter-timer circuits are perfect for the job, and the SPI would serve just fine for communications. Of course, this (...) (29 years ago, 26-Jun-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re:
 
(...) Actually an 'HC11 isn't a very efficient PWM controller. However a Microchip PIC is. (or a Motorola 68HC05, or a Siemans 87C752, etc) These single chip microcontrollers are both cost effective and easy to use. In the July (or August) '95 issue (...)

(...) I agree that the "software" solution in an HC11 is limiting. It is this limitation that I am trying to overcome in hardware. Rather than shift a bit-pattern out for PWM, I would use three of the built-in timers to accomplish the task. One (...) (29 years ago, 27-Jun-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
