Hi hardware-specialists,

does anyone know the maximum continuous current that a RCX motor output can
drive? (I want to connect a light.)

Thanks a lot.

Bernd

9.3x volts when  a Train Power supply is used. Down to as little as 6.5 volts
when batteries are getting pretty low.

In my layout, I used Train power supply for RCX to drive train, the max voltage is 9.7v. Zhengrong (...) (23 years ago, 8-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
  Re: maximum current of outputs
 
(...) That's all nice and well, but Bernd asked about current. I think it's on the order of several hundred mA, but I don't have exact figures. Unfortunately there is no (more?) data sheet for the 10402 motor controller used in the RCX at (URL) (...) (23 years ago, 8-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
