[03:05:43] <Jak_o_Shadows> So rue, just to confirm, your biggest problem with the PCA9685 servo controllers is that they do a bad job of making the PWM signals.
[03:06:05] <Jak_o_Shadows> You don't have any issues with the i2C communication protocol thing they've made up?
[03:07:02] <Jak_o_Shadows> (I have one, gonna use it for christmas lights)
[09:00:13] <rue_bed> 9685? is that the 9 channel?
[09:00:36] <rue_bed> tlc5934
[09:16:21] <rue_house> ?
[09:18:02] <rue_house> never used that one before
[09:18:14] <rue_house> 12 bit
[09:18:25] <rue_house> lets say your using 50Hz refresh
[09:18:34] <rue_house> and your max time is 2.5ms
[09:19:01] <rue_house> 20ms...
[09:19:34] <rue_house> 4096...
[09:20:09] <rue_house> so your effective resolution is 9 bit
[09:28:06] <rue_house> opposed to stuffing two m8's on a board and using rues library
[09:28:49] <rue_house> makes sense
[09:28:59] <theBear> theBear can also talk about himself in the 3rd person
[09:29:13] <theBear> using theBear's mouth
[09:29:38] <rue_house> :)
[09:30:08] <rue_house> has the murdering settled down in your flat?
[09:30:25] <theBear> so far so good :) face kinda hurts
[09:30:38] <rue_house> axes do that
[09:30:59] <theBear> i know that NOW
[09:32:47] <rue_house> jak is right, their i2c is crazy
[09:34:20] <rue_house> they had a hell of a time trying to implement the same stuff that I did
[09:41:49] rue_house changed topic of #robotics to: If you ask a question, you must wait for the answer. | http://tom-itx.no-ip.biz:81/~webpage/index.php | F is for Farad
[09:42:28] <rue_house> hmm or is it for F*#$$%^ when you hit your finger with a hammer
[09:57:44] <deshipu> or a really heavy capacitor
