Hi all,

I am running some motors from a Mini Board and I want to up the current
output of the board.  I have noticed that the motor drivers on the MB
are the L293 chips just like the Handy Board.  Now if the 1 Amp motor
chips that many Handy Board vendors now install as OEM are just a plug
and play substitution for the L293s, can I then just swap the L293s on
my MB for the 1 Amp chips and get the desired result?  I know that this
is not the Mini Board mailing list, but I'm hoping that some of those
who have used MBs before will know this answer....or at least tell me
that if I try it nothing is likely to blow up.

Thanks,

David

David, You can replace the L293 on your MiniBoard with the TI SN754410 with no adverse effects. The two chips are pin-for-pin compatible. - Prabal (...) (28 years ago, 22-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
