(...) yes, this is right. the fastest you can go with the 52-pin 6811s is 12 MHz crystal --> 3 MHz system clock (i'm pretty sure). so this is only 1.5x over the stock HB. so you've got the issue Curt pointed out with not only the downloader, but (...)

(...) From the data books for the 68HC11, if you have any version of the E-series (except for perhaps one, a low-power version?), you can run them at up to a 3MHz E-clock (12MHz crystal). I haven't looked at the rest of the handyboard schematic with (...) (25 years ago, 23-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

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)

Generally, cost, accuracy, size, and drift. Ceramic caps are expensive ($/pf) reasonably stable across temperature and acceptably accurate.

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)

Capacitance is calculated using the area of the plates, the dielectric constant, and the distance between the plates. It does not have anything to do with the voltage. If a thicker dielectric is formed, it will reduce the capacitance. This is not (...) (25 years ago, 22-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
