Grounded Bicore

Hey guys!

 

I'm new to BEAM robotics and I want to build a simple grounded bicore. Now I want to use 100uF electrolytic caps and two 1k resistors (which should give me 1 pulse every second.

I'm using a 74HC14 inverting Schmitt Trigger. How are the caps connected to the inputs/outputs? Does the positive side of the cap go to the input or to the output?

 

Thanks in advance

oooh grounded bicore, your

oooh grounded bicore, your on beam robotics too? well i think that you should use non-polarized capacitors to do that!

your on beam robotics

your on beam robotics too?

Well, I want to start because I kinda like the look of just a chip with all the components soldered to it and because I saw this cool “Solar Bird” here yesterday^^

Are there any cool simple BEAM bots?
