(...) One way to accomplish this is with an H-bridge motor drive other than the L293 on the HB itself. I one out of discrete components some time ago, using darlington TIP series transistors, and it works great. (Kudos to Chuck McManis.) It can (...)

hello, all you happy roboters! /I have a question about interfacing a larger motor to the HB. It runs on 6v & draws 1-2amps, depending on the load. I already have a 6v 7amp lead battery that I want to use to power the 2 motors. What would be the (...) (27 years ago, 19-Aug-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi - Has anyone ever tried using "muscle wire" (nitinol) with the Handyboard? When you pass an electirc current through it, it heats up and rapidly contracts. The wire has a fairly low resistance - would it still be OK to drive it with the motor (...) (27 years ago, 18-Aug-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
