what are the pinouts for the i2c interface for the lcdx. and can i still unplug the i2c lines and us rs232 for uploads without changing jumpers. where is good...
Hi there, I have a basicx microcontroller, using it in my project ,, but when i try to download a new program the error message"Unable to halt BasicX" appears....
... Well, maybe. You've already tried all of the usual stuff. You might try starting the download on the PC with the BasicX off (no power applied). As soon...
Thanx Don for replying, unfortunately I tried start downloading the program & while retrying I switched the chip on, but still the error "unable to halt...
Hi everyone. I got my bx-24 for a while now but I haven't tried using it to control servos. I don't have any experience with servo before but from what I have...
I'm planning a Xilinx XC9536 CPLD in a project to handle some high-speed functions; the XC9536 will be programmed via a JTAG port, in system. All CPLD I/O is...
Jimmy, You need a bigger power supply for your servos. a four C-Cell battery pack should provide the servos with the current they need. The older BX-24 chips...
Hi Jimmy, Your observation that "...something is causing the BX-24 to reset..." is a clue. The BX-24 will reset itself if the input voltage goes below 4.75...
Hi B_H, It sounds like your BX-24 is working OK by itself. The problem probably is in the serial communication hardware or software setup. First check that you...
Is that CPLD a 5v compatible device? ... From: "Tom Becker" <gtbecker@...> To: <basicx@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Tuesday, May 02, 2006 9:21 AM Subject:...
Tom, your suggestion to try an H11F1 optoFET to switch caps was helpful; thanks. For the PLL, I was able to find a fixed filter that works very well without...
Thanks, Tom. That is a good use for it, since it is completely isolated it will work anywhere in the voltage range. I will remember that for the future. I...
What exactly does '5v tolerant mean'? Does it have an industry accepted definition or is this some marketing language that has crept into the technology? IN...
... It means that the part can accept 5v logic levels without harm. Generally, 5v-tolerant parts can be used directly in 5-volt systems - except for the power...
Hi B_H, ... Hello Eric, first thanks alot for your reply and this list of solutions, i added a reply here from 2 days but it seems that it wasnt sent.. the...

Hi BH, The serial connector on a PC, (or a USB to Serial Converter Cable) is a DB-9M, meaning it has 9 "male" pins. The appropriate Serial Cable is a 1:1...

Hi, I am new to this domain of basic-x. I have doubt. Can we use 2 consecutives pulses of the input capture to measure the frequency of a pulse wave. Can any...
hello, I am currently looking for a microcontroller to power a micromouse project that i will be working on in the next few months. I had my mind set on the...
... A BX-24p can do all that. Serial (SPI) memories are easy, analog inputs are easy, dual PWM is easy and reading bot wheel encoders is easy. Together, they...

On page 25 of the BX-01 Hardware Reference document they refer to a 7- pin In-Circuit Programming Cable. Has anyone used this? Where can I get one, or the...
Well I am not sure of the avenue i will choose for wheel encoders, I was thinking something along the lines of the faulhaber mini motors with encoders built...
