    Unstable PWM

    I have simply set the 08M2 to produce a PWM signal at about a 50% duty cycle (PWMOut C.2, 249, 499) and am watching it on a scope. At random times the signal goes flat (0V) and then resumes the pwm. I have checked for loose wires and bad connections but it still does this randomly turning the...

I have a replaytv 5000 (one of the original dvr's) and am trying to coordinate it with a new directv satellite box. I need to have the replaytv change the channel...

    Power Supply From Wall Wart

    I am trying to use a wall transformer that shows an output of 10V DC and want to regulate it down to 5V for a picaxe project. Using a 7805 regulator causes the 7805 to overheat because of the voltage difference and extra energy to be dissipated. So, in general, how does one solve the problem...

    Using the 74LS07

    What am I forgetting? I am trying to use a 74LS04 to buffer a pulsout output from a picaxe 08M but I can't even get the 7407 to behave. Should I not get the same output as I put in to a 7407? I have all unused inputs tied high or low Thanks for any help. Dave
