  Re: Expansion Board Files
 
I had similar problems with lib_hb.c. Downloaded it tonight (1800 local time in California, 1 Feb 99). After removing all the "little squares" there were still about 8 or 10 errors. At each error I deleted all white space in the error's location, (...) (26 years ago, 2-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: Will the SN754410 support...
 
if the worst-case current is 1.5A, you're probably OK -- the SN754410's have thermal protection for over-current conditions. they're rated for an amp continuous, so you're not too far out of bounds. one cause for concern is if the 1.5A measure is (...)

  Native 68HC11 C Compiler Followup

However, at that time, Introl (...) (26 years ago, 1-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Will the SN754410 support...
 
I am trying to determine whether the SN754410 motor drivers will support two small DC motors. (without killing the IC's or motor) Or will I need to add a power amplification circuit. The motors are rated @ 6v ?A. Test show that they pull 0.35A (...) (26 years ago, 1-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Handyboard and iMac
 
Hi all, Do you remember me asking if the HandyBoard was working on an iMac with an USB/Serial adapter? Well, all the USB/Serial adapters have been back ordered for the last 4 months, so I was unable to find or try any of them ;^(. But I bought an (...)

  Re: HB failure
 
the buzzing indicates that the LCD isn't connected right (or is dead, as you are guessing). first, please be sure that all 14 pins of the LCD are inserted properly into the LCD connector. then (if still probs), try downloading Kent Farnsworth's (...)

  Re: First steps ok
 
Do anyone know who sells handyboards in Italy ? A lot of similar boards, but not the MIT's one. And these other boards are programmable directly with the code written for the handy board ? I think I 'll habve to make the porting. Lucky you who live (...) (26 years ago, 1-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: ** voltage dropping and current limitting**
 
Dear Mike, I believe the 16 V is rms value. If you attach a capacitor across the bridge rectifier under no load condition(output terminals are open), the capacitor gets charged not to 16 V rms but to the maximum value ie Vm=16*2^0.5 which is about (...)

  infrared distance sensor
 
Hi, I've just received a Sharp Digital Infra-Red Ranging System (GP2D02) and I'd like to connect it to the handyboard. The device clocks the data in on a digitial input but requires the clocking pulses to be no longer than 200 microseconds. This (...) (26 years ago, 30-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: ** voltage dropping and current limitting**
 
(...) Well, just off the top of my head, when you say "get 16 vac out" how are you determining this, a volt meter set for "Volts AC" or some such? Not, say, an oscilloscope? You will note that almost all meters render "AC Voltage" as the RMS (Root (...) (26 years ago, 30-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Fred- Thank you-it helps when you put the libraries that won't load into the right folder. I shall take up with Newton Labs why the HB won't talk to the HB and says out of date 2.81 code is out of date. Thank you again for all your help. Cappy (...)
