Does anyone have any experience with creating an Atmel based motor controller? These are commonly found in CD-ROMS and are extremely efficient as well as last much longer than traditional brushed motors. Thanks for the help!!

There are a couple of ways and they are related. You will need to use 1% tolerance resistors or better. It also helps if you use an OpAmp with a programmable gain - To set that gain you'll need to use precision resistors again. This is the only path to success - precision resisto

Probably not legal per US FCC Part 19 for Ham Radio (I am a licensee). You should be able to get that half-mile easily with a pair of 1W 902-928MHz serial port extender radios. I've used these. And a small yagi for one or both isn't expensive if you need its gain. Maxstream sells

Why use a slide switch at all? If space is an issue, why not use a pushbutton switch and maybe an LED indicator for the setting. I assume you're using an AVR controller. You can program delays after which the setting is punched into the program and left until there's a change. RE

I don't think the 4-way rocker switch is the best choice. I need the switch to stay in position and give the end user an indication of what "port" they have selected. I have seen small devices with a four position slide switch. I just never thought it would be as tough as it's tu

Half mile in hilly wooded area is a bit of a challenge with low power at ANY frequency. Trees tend to absorb pretty well. Problem with low frequencies is that there is a lot of interferance. Problem with medium and higher frequencies is the terrain loss. AM won't gain you much. I

Well, yes, but.... That "transmitter" would have been almost as "dirty" as the old spark-gap guys in the early days. Harmonics would be horrendous. Now, you CAN do it at low frequencies using function generator techniques to generate low distortion AM sine waves (up to 5MHz, perh
