 | | Re: Analog/Digital IO
|
| (...) For digital values, you can use a parallel port card, or even handshake lines on a serial port. For analog, you can again use a parallel port, and hook up an external A/D chip. As long as you're not trying to get too many bits of resolution (...) (25 years ago, 3-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| I know this question does not really relate to the handyboard, but does anyone know of a cheap PCI or ISA card for a PC to read analog or digital values? Thanks, Mike Reiling (25 years ago, 3-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
| | | | | stepper motor sequence [DAT]
|
| hi all i was trying to connect a uni polar stepper motor with the hb. i was using the stepping sequence given in peter harrison page. A B C D 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 This sequence means that each coil will be energised one by one. and at no (...) (25 years ago, 3-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
| | | | | Re: 12V servo motors
|
| Since the HB battery is only 9.6 V, a 12 V motor would most likely draw too much current and pop the circuit breaker (or worse). I don't see why you couldn't power the servos with a separate 12 V battery, though. The HB expansion board is all set up (...) (25 years ago, 2-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

|
| hi, The HB FAQ says to use 6V servo motors connected to the batt supply with a couple of series diodes to reduce the voltage. can i use 12V servos instead? cheers fazal (25 years ago, 2-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
