    Re: Interfacing Sharp's GP2D02 Distance Sensor to the RCX —Ralf Krause
   Hi, I asked this problem a few weeks (or months??? ... I don't know a what time ...) but nobody could help. I got the same following answer ".... the sensor takes 35 mA and this is to much for the RCX ..." but I couldn't understand this at this (...)

     Ralf, If you don't need great precision, an easier aproach might be my Infra-red Relative Distance Indicator. See the link below. (...) -- Pete Sevcik sevcik@flash.net Techno-stuff Robotics (URL) for FUN ! (24 years ago, 21-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

     (...) I agree ! (...) How depressing. :-( (...) Of course ! But, it's possible to drive more then one of these sharps with one output. And shouldn't it be possible (without large effort) to use the input-power to multiplex some of the GP2D12 ? (...) (24 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Probably taking all the power from the Motor Output or a 9V battery box so you wouldn't need D3 and D4. (24 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

     (...) The GP2D02 is a very powerful sensor for a robot. Getting it to work will really be great. I think the best bet is to use a 9V battery box for this instead of using a precious output port... Ram (24 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
