ASTABLE 555 - RESISTORS as SWITCHES | |||
VEHICLE, MODEL N° 2, DRAWING MACHINE | |||
The basis for our third assignment was the previous one. Instead of the photodiode's resistance triggering the Double Pole Double Throw - Relay, we decided to only work with the common resistors and capacitors as our aim was to make the vehicle move in a certain rhythm. We added another Double Pole Double Throw - Relay, two 555 Timers and two TIP 122 to the breadboard. This allowed us to control both of the motors separately from each other. | |||
You will need: | |||
2x | |||
Double Pole Double Throw - Relay | |||
TIP 122 | |||
555 Timer | |||
3x Battery | |||
To improve: | |||
Add photodiodes so that you can influence the rhythm of the motors moving forwards/backwards permanently. | |||
