  Re: expansion board
 
I used the one available IR LED driver on the HB to drive a Radio Shack high-output IR LED. This, along with a Radio Shack IR decoder module (a little silver box about the size of a sugar cube that takes +5vdc and ground, and outputs a TTL level (...)

  Re: Motors & handyboard
 
(...) how did you take this measurement exactly? I think 75 mA might be kind of low, most motors will draw this much when they are just spinning but doing no useful work, but then draw much more when they are driving a geartrain. (...) actually, (...) (28 years ago, 14-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Motors & handyboard
 
Yesterday I tried to run a motor out of the HB. First I tried how much current it needed with a multimeter and a 5V power source ... The result 75mA. When I tried to run the motor from the HB, after turning on the motor at low speed (motor (0,20);) (...) (28 years ago, 14-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: expansion board
 
(...) I've got a PIC chip programmed with IR collision-detection built into it (I'm trying to get some of the new 8 pin PICs to see if I can make an "all in one" unit. Basically the interface is two bits: bit 0 output - Turn on IR illumination (...) (28 years ago, 14-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  expansion board
 
Fred, It seems to me that the first thing most people want to add to their robots that is not supported on the handyboard itself, is IR collission detection. How about including a modulator and driver for IR LED's, and a detector and demodulator (...) (28 years ago, 14-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Sockets for 18200
 
Does anyone know if there exists a socket for the National 18200. My application warrants the need to be able to replace the chips if they should ever fail. thanks for any information Patrick (28 years ago, 14-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  dual servos
 
Hello everyone, I have been fiddling with my dual servo routines and I have gotten things running to the point that I now need a chassis for my project. While working on the drive system I have noticed that when under heavy motor load (2 motors at (...) (28 years ago, 14-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Port E inputs
 
Hello, I noticed that in Figure B.9 on page 194 in Appendix B of the 6.270 manual that pins PE0-PE3 are shown to go to seperate little port symbols while pins PE4-PE7 go to a block labeled 'Analog Input Header'. Do these inputs really go to two (...) (28 years ago, 13-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  LM324
 
The latest expansion board schematic shows an LM324 for the high impedance input buffers. Although the LM324 is cheap and available, its input and output voltage ranges are limited to 0 to 3.5V (yes, probably a little more with any real part). If (...)

  Re[2]: as11_ic
 
Hello, Am I the only one who is still lost with this stuff? Help! I see the Mac ports of the as11 assembler on the web site; why can't the DOS version be put there? I have been unable to find the assembler on Motorola's web site despite several (...) (28 years ago, 13-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  is there a program
 
I am building a handyboard from the board up and i was wondering if a program exists that when the handyboard is programmed i can get it to run through a maze on my monitor, i can't afford a body right now thanks ted houle (28 years ago, 12-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: as11_ic
 
There are two fundamentally different ways to go about writing assembly language programs for the Handy Board: 1. Write them as callable functions for the Interactive C environment, using the as11_ic program. 2. Scrap Interactive C entirely, and (...) (28 years ago, 12-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  as11_ic
 
Hi, I was wondering if there is a version of the as11_ic assembler available for the IBM PC. If not, is there any other way to use an .asm file on the handy board? Thanks. -LUKE (28 years ago, 12-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Building new PCODE
 
As I cant seem to get a 16x2 LCD, I have installed a 16x1 display. The problem now is building a suitable version of the PCODE to support it without workarounds. I don't have a unix box so I got Kent's (?) port to the PC. That, however, is an older (...) (28 years ago, 12-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Signal Diode
 
JTW, Use 1n4002, 1n4004, etc - they are higher rated parts and usually the same price (which is why 1n4001 has been discontinued - everybody upgraded for free!).
