Dear Handyboarders
Some time ago I bought a toy that runs off 2 - 1.5 volt batteries. The
controller board has a PIC on it, control of the toy was via a TV remote, and
it ran two separate motors for the drive train. There is also an on/off switch.
My question - I want to make use of the program in the PIC and will like to
incorporate the PIC board with a handyboard. Is this possible? I am really short
on electronics understanding - but I do know I don't want to smoke my
handyboard!
I am hoping that the PIC board could get power from the handyboard. Is it
possible to have the handyboard transmit I.R. controls to the PIC board instead
of the TV remote?
I would appreciate any comments or assistance.
Sincerely
Michael
