| | | I'm not sure if the 4-way would work, but it it did you could put a 4 way on each of the outputs of the first 4-way, yielding a 16 way splitter. Of course this would require 10 polarity switches. Dave (...) (26 years ago, 11-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | (...) This is a great idea, and it pushes the number of outputs up to 32: We connect two 16-way splitter to RCX, and use one direction of the controlling motor for both the "first-level" splitters and the other direction for all the eight (...) (26 years ago, 11-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | (...) Now wait just one minite. If you connect up the outputs of a few of the 32-way spliiter to the inputs of other 32-way spliiters, you can drive many more outputs. How many outputs are we at now? -Kekoa (26 years ago, 11-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | (...) But then we run out of outputs for the controlling motors. On the other hand, we may layer four stages of the 4-way splitter into a 256- way, then use both directions of the other two outputs to control these four stages... I think this is (...)

| | | | Does anybody know if the polarity switch has a neutral center position? In other words, does the switch go: forward<->off<-->reverse Please share with the group...
