  Re: Handyboard low voltage motor control
 
Good point... There is another way. You can build your own h-bridges using mechanical relays and maybe a few diodes. They drop zero volts, which is good. However, you obviously can't PWM the things. If you just want rudimentary speed control, you (...) (25 years ago, 18-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Handyboard low voltage motor control
 
Well, I went with separate h-bridge to maintain PWM and it turns out that even though the motors are geared down, they still don't have enough torque to haul around all the batteries. Looks like I'll stick with 9v motors... Thanks for the (...) (25 years ago, 20-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
