 | | dc motor output control —Michael Toh
| | | | hi everyone, i need some help on controling the output voltage of the dc motor ports. the output voltage is 9.6V and i like to know if there is any way to clamp down the voltage to 5V or lesser. i try using a enternal resistor but the output signal (...)

| | | | | Maybe you can put a series of diodes in series and in parallel but the other direction to reduce the voltage. H-bridge +- +- +- +- motor H-bridge -+ -+ -+ -+ Good luck, James (...) (26 years ago, 19-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| | | | | On my first robot, I just took a resistor in-line and used that. It got very hot, though, and didn't work evenly (some of them must have started to burn out before the others did....) (26 years ago, 22-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
