If you are using a package system w/ slack, then Gentoo will act similar except it will compile all packages before installing them. With slack, i tended to...
Mostly, it tries to jump off the table. I don't remember what it sounds like, but I was running it off DC supplies, not ramping up PWM. I'm planning on...
... I'm another gentoo user... came to gentoo when I got sick of having to compile so many things by hand on debian just to get the options I wanted.. Gentoo ...
Triffid, I too am looking at migrating my robot to Gumstix. Let's keep in touch. Michael...

Richard, you seem to be referring to the band "Yes", but Rich was talking about the band "ELO" (Electric Light Orchestra). The Elo Chess ranking system is...
There's a great MOSFET driver chip from Maxim that takes 4 logic- level inputs and delivers 11V + Vcc on its outputs. Unfortunately, the part doesn't seem to...

... You can get these easy actually.. You just have to look other places. If you don't mind bolting one to the board, and have the space. You can get a copper...

AHHHH yes the " mini ev ". Great motor. Still available if you know where to look. http://www.robotmarketplace.com/marketplace_motorsmisc.html FWIW the stall...
... I ... With ... you ... Hi Brian. This sounds interesting. When you say monitoring total current consumption, were you using a motor as load or just a load ...
I'll bet it can be done. Look into snubber circuits and using transisters to control inductive load circuits. Motors kick back so you have to treat them with...
Ahh, I forgot that Gentoo uses the "wrong" init. I cant remeber which is BSD and which is SYSV, but ... Gentoo does include some nice utils to keep your init...
... I've used both resistive and inductive loads. However, the more controlled higher current tests have been with resistive loads since it is easier to...
hello everyone! i just need assembly code of clock with LCD applied on Motorola MC68HC908GP32 (shortly GP32). is there anyone here having some kind of assembly...
I believe this is called a "resolver." Ferrand make these under the trade name Inductosyn... wish I knew how they work....

It's not really an encoder. It is a frequency generator. The faster the motor rotates the higher the frequency output. The comparater takes the small sine...
In this way, the Inductosyn behaves exactly as other encoders used in hobby robots: It provides a clock transition for each X degrees of rotation, depending...

hi again, randy carter said a pull-up resistor should be used for TA75393. I am actually studying mechanical engineering, and not familiar with electronics. I...
"Pull-up resistor" refers to a resistor used for a specific purpose. In the case of a pull-up resistor, the resistor is connected between the logic supply...
R6 the 470K is not connected as a pull-up resistor (I had to look at it twice). It is connected between the output an the + input of the comparator. This...
