I didn't look that closely at your program but I have included a routine to read the analog ports that I know works. After assembling and loading the program, you make two c function calls: powerup_ad(); and read_ad(i); where i is the analog port (...) (26 years ago, 22-Oct-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) HB? (...) Allegro Systems UCN5804B is $3 and change from Newark Electronics. That's not so many $s. It can drive steppers up to 1.25A. The interfacing is easy, datasheet available on-line. Hope this helps, Art (26 years ago, 22-Oct-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Well maybe you should try replacing the HC11 for a start.. These things tend to spoil easily and for no apparent reason.... :( (or is it just bad luck?) That's funny, you shorted out something and it still can download? Maybe you should also change (...) (26 years ago, 22-Oct-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi All, While I was building my sumo robot I managed to short a wire in my HB.
