Misc

2000-12-31 - ALTIM1C - PIC-based Model Rocket Altimeter - Posted by: Jeff Frohwein
Here's a PIC model rocket altimeter schematic that I reverse engineered in 1993. Here's the source code & ROM binary. Adept Rocketry has since gone out of business (it appears anyway) so I've decided to post the design for learning purposes. From disassembling the code I figured out that the code loops until a significant change of pressure occurs. At this point, it keeps the most current pressure reading BEFORE the change of pressure readings occured and compares this value to the minimum pressure reading that occurs. From these two extremes a measurement in feet is derived. This measurement is reported through a series of beeps from the speaker. I.E. Very short duration pause between beeps for digits, much longer duration pause between digits, very long duration pause between the complete number and starting over again reporting the complete number.

2000-03-05 - Nix's PIC based sonar system - Posted by: Jeff Frohwein
There are several PIC based ultrasonic ranging systems available on the Net, but all of them use the hard-to-get Polaroid ultrasonic module. So he decided to make a device that will use standard ultrasonic transmitter and receiver modules.

Servos

2000-03-17 - Dan's Servo Controller - Posted by: Jeff Frohwein
16F84 serial,6 servo controller,No jitter, 9600 baud. Uses a serial receive and a handshake signal to coordinate serial transfers.

2000-03-17 - Dennis Clark's Servo Controller - Posted by: Jeff Frohwein
12C508 code that will take a single byte of serial data at 2400 baud and control the chosen servo with one of 64 possible settings X 4, max 252. The two MS bits choose the servo, 0-3 and the LS 6 bits the 64 positions.

2000-03-05 - Eric's Servo Controller - Posted by: Jeff Frohwein
Two PIC16c84's are used to control up to 14 servos from a serial input.

2000-03-17 - Mark Sullivan's Servo Controller - Posted by: Jeff Frohwein
Drives 8 servos from serial input. The unit is capable of receeving serial commands at full speed concurrently with generating servo output pulses. Multiple units can be bussed to operate up to 64 servos from a single host serial port. No handshaking is used or required.
