  Re: Source for IS1U60
 
(...) (URL) carries them, but they currently say they have no stock, you'd have to find what their lead-time is. Also, a Canadian firm (URL) carries them, and they DO have them in stock. HVW's cost about US$1.00 more, but at least you can get them! (...) (25 years ago, 23-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: Good place to but miniboard?
 
(...) First off, how much are you looking to pay? It can be built fairly cheaply if you are interested. Second, there is a mailing list for the miniboard. Check out Fred Martin's FTP site relating to the miniboard for the details. It's all in there. (...) (25 years ago, 22-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: before I reinvent the wheel
 
Doh! I should have said I was planning on using IR, but a serial cable makes more sense (at least to start with)... Thanks, Paul Adam Oliver wrote in message <001401bf04c9$2bdb67...c@adam>...

  differential steering
 
Hi, I what to built a four wheeled robot which uses differential steering. Have somebody an idea to transfer the motion energy from the motor powered back wheels to the front wheels? Jens (25 years ago, 22-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: before I reinvent the wheel
 
before I reinvent the wheelI haven't actually done this, but I'm pretty sure the theory is ok... On the handyboard web page is the pa79600 icb file which lets you use port a bit 7 as serial i/o. I have successfully used this to control some (...) (25 years ago, 22-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Using 12V supply with Expansion Board?
 
Hello 'Botter, I think I am about to ask a stupid question but as a precaution, will the Expansion board be "ok" with a new 12V motor supply rather than the 9.6V connected to the Power Expansion header (J13)on the HB since the Expansion board and HB (...)

  OVER 1 AMP
 
Oh yeah, one more thing, how about connecting a 5 ohm resistor in series with a DC motor and there are 2 amps flowing, then the resistor is dissipating 20 watts of heat. Now I could have a higher value for the resistor, like 7, 10 ohms, I think that (...) (25 years ago, 21-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Thanks everyone for your help, Now, I recieved two good answers for my problems. 1) Built an H-Bridge 2) Use the LMD18200 Now has any one any documentation on an easy H bridge that I could build without wasting much time?

HAS ANY ONE USED MOTORS RATED OVER 1 AMP WITH THE HANDY BOARD? IF SO, HOW DID YOU GO ABOUT INTERFACING WITH THE HB? DID ANYONE USE THE L293 D/B, OR THE SNJ74 ? IS IT A BAD IDEA TO PIGGY-BACK MORE THAN TWO OF THESE CHIPS IN PARALLEL, SAY 3 OR 4? THIS (...) (25 years ago, 20-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
