  Re: RC Servo motor internal electronics
 
Ideally, I could use an H-bridge on the same board as the "new" electronics and provide expanded feedback such as current sensing or encoder in addition to the normal servo interface. It would also be nice to allow PWM to control the power presented (...) (26 years ago, 19-May-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Handyboard questions
 
Has anyone used the eltec 442-3 pyrometer with the Handyboard?? I am in the process of using legos to build a robot, and have a completed 442-3 pyrometer with the lens and all that I got in. I am looking for the best way to wire this sensor, and I (...) (26 years ago, 18-May-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Harddisk-Crash - HELP
 
(...) The Handy Board web site has a mail list archive page, from which you can download archives of past postings. The last item on the list is entitled "Jan 1997 -- present" (which means it's probably huge). Good luck. --Will , , __@_/ \_@__ |/ | (...) (26 years ago, 18-May-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Pad/Hole Widths
 
Thanks, I was going to use a pad/hole size of .050/.028. The default size of my library uses .050/.025. I checked some pin size data and it shows .015 (min) to .023 (max). Allowing .008 to .010 extra and .003 for plating, it seems that the best size (...) (26 years ago, 18-May-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: Pad/Hole Widths
 
Hi Mike check with your board manufacturer for production specification. The via hole size I resently used was 12mil with a via size of 16mil. For Pad/Hole Width use the specifications of the parts you want to put on your board. A hole should be (...) (26 years ago, 18-May-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Shorted Handyboard
 
Finishing mounting our handyboard to the chasis of our robot, we shorted the board. A screwdriver made contact near the IR reciever on the bottom right corner of the board. Additionally, the 2.5A fuse blew. After this occured, we have not been able (...) (26 years ago, 13-May-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Does the HB NEED 9.6 volts?
 
I am planning on using stepper motors with a handy board, which hopefully I will have in a week :) The specs on the HB say it uses 9.6 volts. Is this a required voltage? or can it be another rating as long as it is within the regulators limits. (...) (26 years ago, 13-May-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: HandyBoard 10-16 Servo support
 
(...) I had exactly the same problem. There is a CMOS chip by Motorola called the MC14028B that is a BCD-to-decimal or Binary-to-octal decoder. All that really matters though is that it will take a 4-bit input and decode up to *10* outputs that are (...) (26 years ago, 13-May-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
