    Full Duplex on a single wire

    That link has some interesting stuff. Check this out: http://www.fiberdyne.com/products/cwdmintro.html Precisely what you brought up first.

    Full Duplex on a single wire

    Keith Applications will vary, but the concept I build will be based around the Propeller multiprocessor. Others will have their own interests as well. I have several uses in mind, but nothing nailed down yet. Possibly a continuation of the small business and hotel scenerio we discussed...

    Full Duplex on a single wire

    itsmoked got me thinking about looking into the idea of running a fiber with two trancievers at each end. I am searching for hardware that could filter the colors right now. Most likely that route will require major hardware and cost, but is worth a slight departure to get some basic...

    Full Duplex on a single wire

    I thought that the modem limitation was more of a wire length/noise problem. The speeds can vary, this is just for experimental purposes at this stage. Your idea is interesting Keith. I assume you are referring to full cycle sine waves. Would a half cycle sine wave function as well in this...

    Full Duplex on a single wire

    http://circuits.iwarp.com/fulldupidea.jpg I am just getting into serial communication and was discussing Full Duplex on a single wire with someone, neither of us had a good solution, so no better place that Eng tips to find out whats the story! Q. Is it possible to have a single wire(not...

    Video output for microcontroller

    For video applications, have you checked out the Parallax Propeller? It does video easily. There are objects already written for it as well. http://www.parallax.com/propeller/index.asp

    Stepper and Encoder Concept help neeed

    That is an excellent point about the resolution. I appreciate the reply. I am ordering the part below which decodes the quadrature into up/down clocks on separate outs, but I'll look in to using the additional absolute output at well. Out of countless hours of digging I haven't seen any...

    Stepper and Encoder Concept help neeed

    Hello I posted to another forum but probably should have posted here instead now that I am a bit more informed: Could someone please describe what the concept is for using a shaft encoder on a stepper for tracking with a controller? I want to learn what is the most accurate way to track...

    Question about Encoder/Counter

    This is not the best are to have posted the question, I am rephrasing and moving to Electric motors and motor controls, as that seems more appropriate for the content. Thanks

    Question about Encoder/Counter

    Thanks for the info. I am currently programming on the Parallax Stamp BS2P40 as it is easy enough to program with no lower level skills. After I get the project totally coded I am going to have someone transfer that Pbasic to the SX chip for which there will will only be minor syntax changes...

    Need plastic or epoxy help

    Thanks guys I'll read up on those products. The 2 part epoxy I am using is not working out as expected, it stays somewhat flexible when it is cured, it is a thermal potting epoxy, so it really isn't designed for a robust hold. The epoxy has to be carefully poured into a mold and cleanup is...

    Question about Encoder/Counter

    Hello all I have a pretty simple question (I think) for guys that are familiar with steppers and encoders. I am getting a nema 23 stepper from US digital with an E2 encoder, that will go into either a LS7183 or LS7184 "Encoder to a Counter Interface IC", then output a clock and direction to...
