Subject: [alt-beam] Waaaa...My Bicore wont work!
Ok, I've replaced the photodiodes with photoresistors and grounded them, like I was told. Well I was happy when the head started to move...and toward the light, too! Well, it also made a funny high pitched buzzing noise. So I added a larger cap across the power pins of the IC and it didn't change. Anyway, after about 30 seconds, it stopped working all together! I have to trn it off and then on again before it will work. It reminds me of a microcore going in to it's saturated state after a few cycles. Can anyone help me??
Chris
