|
| (...) Hey Randy, it would be cool if you could modify that code to use TOC3, which is free and available on the expansion bus, rather than disabling the piezo. Maybe somebody else wants to do this. -Fred (29 years ago, 29-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
| | | | | digital output
|
| Hi, I am wondering if there is any means of digital output other than the motor ports such as the miniboard has. The miniboard has the bank of digital i/o ports. The handyboard has the digital input but I am not sure about digital output other than (...) (29 years ago, 29-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| With teh TI chips, you might get away with it, just do not stall the motor for long. It will not work with the L293Ds, they are rated at 600 ma ( they might work for awhile) (...) (29 years ago, 29-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
| | | | | pcode, libraries for two servos
|
| For people interested in using the piezo output line for a second servo, I've put libraries and new pcode's online at (URL) under "IC-related packages"). The new pcodes disable the beeper code in IC, and free up the line for other uses. The library (...) (29 years ago, 29-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| (...) from the L293D ground? yes, this would be correct. Well, there would be 2.4 amps running through the chip's power source, into the motors, and into ground. ...totaling 4.8 A runniing throught the entire chip fro m a power dissipation (...)

| | | | | Re: expansion board
|
| the code has not yet been written. My hope was that some people who got expansion boards might want to do some of the work themselves. For example, the code for dealing with the analog ports can be taken from previous code for the 6.270 board and (...) (29 years ago, 29-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
| | | | | expansion board
|
| Hi Everyone, I was wondering if someone could point me to where all the software for accessing the Handy Board's expansion board features are located. Specifically, I was wondering if there is code to access the additional A/D ports, servos, (...) (29 years ago, 29-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
| | | | | Re: 600 mA Limit
|
| (...) OK. I just wanted to make sure I'm understanding the material. So, my guess is that in order to drive the 4 motors off one chip, you would have to ground the other lead of each motor? So, does that mean that there is 2.4 A source from the chip (...) (29 years ago, 29-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| it is only a difference in software. The Handy Board software does eight levels; the mini board software---which is different---does 16. -Fred -- This message was composed using Articulate Systems' PowerSecretary, a Macintosh-based speech-to-text (...)
