 | | Polaroid setup w/ exp board...
|
| Hello, I am trying to setup the 6500 polaroid sonar package, but am having a little difficulty. I've soldered a .1uF cap (electrolytic) into the C7 space on the ranging board, connected a 22g wire from J12 to input 7, etc., etc. My problem is in (...)

I didn't have any 5watt resistors handy, so I put a pretty (...) (25 years ago, 15-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| A 470 microfarad electrolytic capacitor across the power leads to the sonar board will probably fix your problem. You can get a lot of current really fast out of one of those things. I remember charging them up and tossing them to one of my friends (...) (25 years ago, 15-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
