Hexapod Robot III

MHEX II Walking HexapodMhex II is an omnidirectional hexapod (6 legged) walking robot.Each leg has 3 motors which allow the feet to be placedanywhere in 3D space within mechanical limits. Unlike my firsthexapod robot (MHEX), this configuration allows the robotto walk in any direction keeping it's feet fixed at a point onground without slipping.http://mikael.geekland.org/An...

Control I-PD controller and tuning

A design method of multirate I-PD controller based on multirate generalized predictive control lawThis paper proposes a new design method of an I-PD controller. The I-PD controller is designed in a multirate system with fast control input and slow output sampling. In order to design PID parameters of the multirate I-PD controller, the multirate...

Schematic Interfacing the ADC0804 to the AT89C51

The analog voltage is applied to pin 6 and the result is available at pins 11 through 18. We have connected pin 1 (Chip Select) to ground so that the chip is always enabled. Connected pin 7 (Vin - ) to ground. The ADC0804 includes an internal oscillator, which requires an external capacitor and resistor to operate. Connect the 150-pF capacitor...

Schematic literature on ADC

ADCThe easiest way to do analog to digital conversion is to use an IC such as the ADC0804 that does the work for us.Analog to digital conversion is the process by which an analog quantity is converted to digital form. It is necessary when measured quantities must be in digital form for processing in a computer or for display or storage. Several...

Schematic Testing Circuit of humidity sensing project

Testing CircuitTo test our circuit, connect various voltages to pin 6 of the ADC0804. we have connected a jumper from pin 6 to 5 volts, the voltage on the sample program should say 5 volts. Remove the jumper. Try connecting a 2.2k resistor from pin 6 to ground and another 2.2k resistor from pin 6 to 5 volts. The result should be around 2.5 volts. Remove the resistors. Try playing with the 220 uF capacitor and the 15k Ohm resistor....
