Motors have been successfully controlled using prototype circuit. Electronic Progress
Motors have been successfully controlled using prototype circuit. • Printed circuit board for up to 64 motors has been designed and built. ALMOST up and running! Electronic Progress
Motors have been successfully controlled using prototype circuit. • Printed circuit board for up to 64 motors has been designed and built. ALMOST up and running! • Simulating the 16 Bit Computer Input: Electronic Progress
Motors have been successfully controlled using prototype circuit. • Printed circuit board for up to 64 motors has been designed and built. ALMOST up and running! • The Decoder and Timer Circuitry: Electronic Progress To PWM Generator 16 Bits from Computer Decoder Circuitry Timer Circuitry
Motors have been successfully controlled using prototype circuit. • Printed circuit board for up to 64 motors has been designed and built. ALMOST up and running! • The PWM Generator: Electronic Progress From Decoders To Motors
Motors have been successfully controlled using prototype circuit. • Printed circuit board for up to 64 motors has been designed and built. ALMOST up and running! • The Motor Connector: Electronic Progress
Motors have been successfully controlled using prototype circuit. • Printed circuit board for up to 64 motors has been designed and built. ALMOST up and running! • Remaining Issues: • --Testing Buffers with “fanout” • --Implementing computer control via ServoToGo. Electronic Progress
Mechanical Progress • Pin array has been built
Mechanical Progress • Pin array has been built
Mechanical Progress • Pin array has been built
Mechanical Progress • Pin array has been built • Remaining Issues: • Put it together!!! • Pray
How to solder quickly (1500-2000 connections!) • How to (re)design printed circuit boards (Traxmaker) • Very nifty signal generation. A PWM generator like this could be very useful in a lot of different applications. • Machine shop skills +1 • Control of servo motors • Design and fabrication process Life Lessons
