Scrap all parts off the bulb holder including the wing-like metal airflow thingies (you will have to be a bit rough and break that parts) and the mirror. You should by now have a clean metal slate with a large hole on the top and some smaller holes on...
The Motor Mount Tilt servos should be tested and centered on a standard RC PWM signal, visiting 1000us, 1500us, and 2000us pulse-widths. Attach a servo arm with a 19.3mm (0.76 Inch) hole-to-center spacing. This value is critical, as the linkage behavior...
The injection moulding process involves injecting a volume of molten material into a mould over a controlled period of time. Naturally, this requires the use of a machine designed for such a task. Pictured below is the C R Clarke 25 mechanical desktop...
Clocks are an important part of practical digital design. Suppose you have a two input AND gate. Then imagine both inputs go from zero to one, which should take the output from zero to one, also. On paper, that seems reasonable, but in real...
I first visually look for shorts/opens, especially on the QFN or QFP and USB (shorts can be easily reworked with the Kester 2331-ZX flux pen; always clean and dry boards after rework; I use isopropyl alcohol and a toothbrush followed by running water)....
Assuming your toolchain knows about the specific FPGA you are using, you might think you only need to feed it Verilog (this is analogous to a C compiler that knows about your CPU only needs C source code). However, there is one piece we didn't have to...
Here is a histogram of the neural network's ball landing position error after training. The shape of the histogram hints that the data tends to follow a lognormal distribution, meaning that if you take the mathematical log of the data, it will appear...
Next step is to wire all the source leads on the MOSFETs together (the right lead when you're looking straight on at it), and also wire them to the one 2-pin female headers on the lower left side of the board (which will be connected to the positive...
Time to start putting together the low-side driver board with the CAT4101s. First step is to install the connector on the 11 x 8.5 cm protoboard. This is the spec'ed component, but if you can't find one that size, you can use another one up to 11.5 cm...
In this step we will add the video module and optionally the sound module at that point you'll be able to run demos and games written specifically for this setup. Unless you want to run MSX BASIC or MSX games then you may want to stop there. RC2014 +...
There are many possible solutions, of course, but here's mine. Let's break it down into manageable pieces. First, let's look at the housekeeping items. I mentioned a 12 MHz clock, although that's ugly for simulation. Because of that, I wrote two...
Now it starts to get a little bit more difficult. My GPS module arrived and this will require some light soldering. This is how to connect the module to the PI: GPS ModuleRaspberry PIPIN on RaspberryVCC3.3VPIN 1 or PIN17GNDGNDPIN 6 or any other GNDRXDTXD...
We have prepared a code for you so that you can move the spider robot without any problems at first. A few commands are ready in the code, but you can revise it yourself ;#include // include IR Remote library #include // include servo library //=====...
