I've found the contact resistance of the LEGO switches vary so much you can't get a 4 way mux to work reliably. With real micro switches I'm (...) (25 years ago, 28-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  RIS SDK - Comments and questions
 
I have just started to try this - is it ever cool. I notice that the Brick options are RCX, Scout and MicroScout - Does this mean that I can program the MicroScout using the RIS Tower ? - If so, do I use LASM ? - I assume that I put it in P-mode ...

  Re: Micro-Switches, Mux
 
There was some doubt in another newsgroup (lugnet.robotics) about my suggestions, so I've made an overview, with drawings om my website (it has also some more pratical values of the resistors), (...) met vriendelijke groet, (25 years ago, 27-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Micro-Switches, Mux
 
Knowing the resistor inside the RCX is 10 kOhm, you should use a different resistor for each switch, the first resistor should be 10 kOhm, the second 30 kOhm, third 70 kOhm, fourth 150 kOhm, this will divide the 5V range in nearly evenly spaced (...)
