As for the Rug Warrior, it has such function.  For example 0 volt

means analog()=128 and watever of negative voltage is analog()<128.

Whatever of positive voltage is analog()>128.



Are you sure about this?  On page 49 of my copy, it states pretty

clearly that the input range is 0 to 5 v.


---------------------------------------------------------------

Just returned home.  I checked the IC Manual of
"The Mobile robot Assembly Guide" for the Rug Warrior.
On p.66, it reads "When no sound in present analog(microphone)
returns a value of approximately 128.  When sound is detected by
the microphone the value may be more or less than 128.
To determine a meaningful value for sound level the microphone must be
sampled drequently and averaged."

Under the book titled Mobile Robots by written by Joe, on p.119
there is a figure 5.23 with a picture of the output from the
microphone.  Reading the section clearly, the reading of
the phone is between 0 and 5V.  Thus, I interpreted it wrong.
Sorry !!!

I just wondering how he does it ?!  Do you think the signals
are shifted upward so that they are always positive ?

Thanks in advance.

(...) Right; a voltage divider probably biases the microphone amp ckt at 2.5v. schematics are provided, no? -F (28 years ago, 5-Jun-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
