Re: TI-H: Remote Control Car




Here is how my H-Bridges work:

 A B Motor
__________

 0 0 Stop
 1 1 Stop
 1 0 Fwd.
 0 1 Rev.

I simply use the H-Bridge, with NO supporting logic. That is, those inverters
and gates and whatever Grant had added to that schematic he posted, are totaly
un necessary. He has a direction control line, and a power line. you need to
set both lines, presumably in atwo steps to activate the motor. If you remove
the logic, you can use a single step, one line or the other, to control the
direction, if the lines are both the same, then it is stopped.

this uses 2 lines. for 2 motors, you just add another copy of the circuit, and
you then have 4 lines. 3 motors, 6 lines. Simple enough.

|||||||||||   Track or wheel on m1
 ,-o 1 o-.
/| |-O-| |---< \
|'-o m o-'      >--m1 control lines
'------------< /
,------------< \
|.-o 2 o-.      >--m2 control lines
\| |-O-| |---< /
 '-o m o-'
|||||||||||   Track or wheel on m2

These H-Bridges would use the logic table shown above.
