  Re: Faulty Digitals
 
it might be the processor, but more likely there is a board short connecting the dig ins to ground (input 7) and pwr (input 8). measure resistance between the inputs and the gnd and pwr rails to check. fred (...) (25 years ago, 23-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Faulty Digitals
 
Greetings all! I've got a Handy Board with the expansion board, and the first and second digital ins (digitals 7 and 8) aren't working. 7 is stuck in 0, and 8 is stuck in 1. I replaced everything on the board but the processor itself, and I'm not (...) (25 years ago, 22-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Kind of. Electrolytics are indeed made by plates in a conductive solution, however when the voltage increases, it pulls the plates together (standard columbs law stuff). When you exceed the rated voltage the force on the plates is enough to pull the (...) (25 years ago, 22-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Electrolytic Capacitor Ratings [was Re: Choosing Parts?]
 
Generally, cost, accuracy, size, and drift. Ceramic caps are expensive ($/pf) reasonably stable across temperature and acceptably accurate. Electrolytic capacitors are cheap ($/pf) only moderately stable across temperature changes, polarized, and (...) (25 years ago, 22-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  smooth PWM!!!...!!!
 
hi everyone, i like to ask something on the PWM of the handboard. if i only do a command: motor(2,50); motor(3,50); i will get a smooth PWM of 500 Hz of waveform.( -_-_-_-_ something like this) but if i implement the above command into a program (...)

As long as we are talking about caps, I cannot find the information about why one uses tanatlum caps vs ceramic caps vs electrolytic. What are the differences between the various types? Thanks, Gary Livick (25 years ago, 22-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: I hope someone can help me...
 
(...) If it is the note I posted, also get the followup. The initial post I think I made a couple errors, and then someone said their chips got hot :-o. Anyway a followup post corrected the information. (...) If you look at the pinouts for the 293 (...) (25 years ago, 22-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  RE: Electrolytic Capacitor Ratings [was Re: Choosing Parts?]
 
Sorry to say, but the capacitance does change depending upon the applied voltage. As you increase the plate voltage a force is created pulling the plates together. This effectively INCREASES the capacitance. The good news is that this enhancement is (...) (25 years ago, 22-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
