(...) Although I teach a digital electronics class based on the 74xx series, I'm certainly no expert, but here goes anyway... TTLs seem to have a very low ability to drive anything but minimal loads. Look up "drivers" in the TTL Data Book. They (...) (28 years ago, 24-Nov-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I hooked up the sonar to the +5 and GND on the HB and it wroked fine. I used TIC3 for Echo and pin 9 of 2nd Motor driver for INIT and GND for BINH I also hooked up the sonar power leads to the 9.6V unregulated motor power header! It also worked! (...)

Hi, I'm stuck. I'm trying to use TTL output of 74 series IC's to signal to INIT. I can't get it to work properly. Here's the deal. When I touch INIT to the 5V bus, the transducer "chirps". But when I touch INIT to a high level TTL output, it doesn't (...) (28 years ago, 23-Nov-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) My 20 years of navy sonar help me somewhat with active/passive transducers and things in the kilowatt range... :-) but I'm a rank newbie to most of the sonar talked about here. Sounds like Piezo would be very cheap. True? I bought two (...) (28 years ago, 23-Nov-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) This is true of the POLAROID Ultrasonic Sensor module, but not necessarily true of all Ultrasonic Sensor modules. It depends on the type of Ultrasonic Transducer the circuit uses. The one I built uses a Piezo-Electric transducer available (...) (28 years ago, 23-Nov-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

You can use either. The 180 ohm resistor will make the output LED brighter, which is generally better, unless you make it so bright as to reduce its lifespan. -Fred ---...--- (...) (28 years ago, 22-Nov-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi, I'm a little confused. On the Handy Board web page it says to use a 330 ohm resistor, but a coleuge of mine said to use a 180 ohm rest.. Please help. Could it be because I have a different brand of sensor than the one in the diagram??? Thanks in (...) (28 years ago, 21-Nov-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Can somebody help me? I had like to use the SPI of the 68HC11, did anybody already do this? Thanks. (28 years ago, 21-Nov-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
