BEAM Pieces -- Integrated circuits - 0 views

  • 1381s are CMOS voltage-controlled triggers -- these "gate" a source until the voltage is above some "trip" limit, at which point it is allowed onto a third pin
  • We use them as 3- or 5-volt triggers
  • This chip is often considered the heart of Nv net technology
  • ...22 more annotations...
  • The '240 is often called "the bicore chip," because we can take advantage of the 240's inverters to turn a single 74*240 into a bicore
  • The '240 also has tri-state outputs, so an enable line can be used to turn its outputs on and off simply (good for adding reversing capability to a 'bot).
  • any *cores built with a 74*04 will require additional logic "downstream" to amplify the current to levels sufficient to drive a moto
  • Schmitt triggers can't easily be used in suspended bicore implementations
  • use its buffers as little current amplifiers
  • it is usable for either grounded or suspended bicore designs (but better for suspended)
  • 74HC/HCTxx non-buffers (74HC14 or 74HC04) draw about half of the current consumption, and have about half the drive current compared to HC / HCT buffer chips (74HC240 or 74HC245). Non-buffer chips are thus better for oscillators, say Nv and Nu applications; they are not suited for use in driving motors.
  • 74AC is best suited for motor driver applications with all inputs driven rail to rail.
  • The '245 is an octal buffer chip, and so has 8 channels of buffering power available for our misuse. This chip was designed for data transmission uses, but we'll misuse it as a motor driver chip
  • The '244 provides us with 8 (thus the "octal") buffers, enableable in banks of 4. This is a very useful chip for amplifying small currents
  • it can drive up to 4 motors in 2 directions each, or you can "buddy up" inputs and outputs to drive fewer motors at higher current
  • it can drive up to 4 motors in 2 directions each, or you can "buddy up" inputs and outputs to drive fewer motors at higher current
  • If you can't find 1381s locally, you might have better luck finding its European cousin, the TC-54 -- for details on it
  • Note that if you need more than about 200 mA per motor, you'll need to use an H-bridge, or some similar motor driver
  • The ideal BEAM circuit would use a low (2V-3V) voltage core and sensors combined with level shifting high (5-6V) volt motor drivers to maximize efficiency.
  • 74ACxxx used in typical BEAM applications uses 4x more supply current than does 74HC/HCTxxx.

Buy Verified CashApp Accounts - BTC Enable Aged CashApp - 0 views

  •  
    There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question, as the best way to buy a verified CashApp account will vary depending on your specific needs and preferences. However, some tips on how to buy verified CashApp accounts include: doing your research ahead of time, finding a reputable seller, and being prepared to pay a bit more for a verified account. With that said, following these tips should help you find and purchase a verified Cash App account without any major issues.

RoboLogo - Teaching Children how to program Interactive Robots - 0 views

  • All of the procedures take a discrete ``gear'' to specify the speed. The reasons for this are two-fold; first, by limiting the power of the truck, we simplify the interface to children. Secondly, it allows use to calibrate the ``gears'' so that, for example, 10 seconds forward in first gear is the same distance as 10 seconds backward in first gear.
  • The limitation of LOGO however is the lack of feedback from the environment. There is no way of expressing an event occuring in the outside world.
  • Simple constructs in iLogo extend the original LOGO language with interactivity capabilities of reading sensors and transfering control to different parts of the program.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • These above rules handle all of the commands and expressions of the iLogo language except for the DoUnlessCommand. This command will execute a list of commands unless a boolean condition is met. If so, control is switched to a new list of commands for handling the exception condition.
  • Each stage of the compiler is designed using the Visitor pattern described in the book Design Pattern by Eric Gamma, et al. This pattern allows tree traversers to be created as seperated objects, instead of doing all traversals as methods of the nodes of the tree
  • We decided to use the JavaCC/JJTree tools created by Sun for generating a custom parser for our iLogo language written in Java.
  • The language must have primitives which allow the user of the language to write programs which easily transfer control based upon outside stimuli, in this case sensors on the truck.
  • An LM18293 push-pull motor driver connects the programmable counter array (PCA) of the 8051 to the truck's motors.
    • York Jong
       
      LM18293 is a DC motor driver.
  • We took the Berkeley Logo language design as our base and then added a primitive for reading sensor and an exception-based control structure.

    RoboLogo is a system that enables children to program interactive robots. Children can program a robotic truck that interacts with the environment without having to deal with low-level implementation details.
