I'm currently assemblying a handyboard and came across some literature for Motorola's 68HC12 microcontroller. The one thing that attracted me to it is its built in memory-mapping capabilities. Do people generally find the handboard's 32K limiting? (...) (27 years ago, 14-Jul-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

James, Thanks for following up. The reason for this behavior should be fairly evident -- there are traces very close to the mounting screw holes. Your metal washers must have shorted them together, affecting wires to the memory. I do mention to use (...) (27 years ago, 11-Jul-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I've discovered the problem. When I mounted the Handyboard, I used metal standoffs. When the board is mounted, it doesn't work. When it isn't, it does. The solution then I guess is to use nylon washers to isolate the Handyboard from the standoffs. (...) (27 years ago, 11-Jul-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
