Hi, I spent a bit of time a couple of months ago re-arranging a lot of the Pcode (we all get our kicks different ways!). At that time, I concluded that the printf routine (or more specifically the despooling function of the buffered characters going (...) (28 years ago, 21-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Ahah. due to the arcane way printing to the lcd screen is implemented, all interrupts must be turned off each time a character is written to the lcd. apparently this conflicts with the servo routines. i'll look into it and see if there is a (...)

Hello again, I forgot to include the most interesting part of my findings. Removing printfs from my routines (which I did independently from all other fixes) markedly improved performance of the servos. This is actually one cause of trouble which I (...)

Hi, For any interested dual servo users the following is what I have been able to find regarding the twitching. Wiring a 1000microf electrolytic across the 6V within inches of each servo seems to work. However, a much more important fix has been (...) (28 years ago, 21-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hello Everyone, I have had absolutely no luck in getting a IR Demodulator for my HB. I have tried every source given on this sight and even more. Can anyone help me to locate this part? Sharp (IS1U60) Having No Luck! Bill Rose (28 years ago, 21-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I would also be interested in plans for such an H-Bridge. I have two 12Vdc motors than take 3.5 Amps at full load (actually gearhead motors so I get lots of torque @50 RPM) but they have surges us to 12 - 14 Amps at start-up and if they get stalled. (...)

Sure, I've built several. The only "trick" to MOSFET bridges is that if you use all N-channel FETs you need a charge pump on the upper FETS. (look out for typos, this was done 'off the cuff' so to speak.) Chuck's Simple MOSFET Tutorial ---...--- (...) (28 years ago, 20-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hello, does anyone know how to build a mosfet hbrige and, if so, could they pass that on to me? It is my understanding that the mosfet hbridge does not heat up near as much as the transistor hbridge nor does it have any loss of voltage or current (...)
