10Bit 7-Segment Digital Voltmeter 0-24V
This is an upgrade to recently published Simple Digital Voltmeter.Few improvements were done to hardware and software.DVM operating range was slightly increased up to 24 V Max, however the most significant change is that the code now uses full 10 bit of ...
Arduino with DS3231 Real Time Clock
In this post I’ll show you how to interface a RTC module DS3231 Real Time Clock with Arduino. This particular module uses I2C protocol to transfer current time to a micro controller. DS3231 library and header files should be installed ...
PIC C Programming
In this article I’ll show you how to program Microchip PIC microcontrollers using HI-TECH PICC compiler and basic PIC development board. The board consists of PIC16F876A, LED bar graph and 20MHz oscillator. PICKIT3 compatible programmer was used to download the ...
Infrared UART
Wireless Infrared UART prototype can be built by using two PIC16F876A controllers. One as IR receiver with dedicated Infrared decoder like SFH505A, SFH506 or similar IR receiver IC and other microcontroller as a transmitter via IR LEDs. This is relatively simple ...
Thermocouple Amplifier MAX31855 with Arduino
Interfacing a Thermocouple with Arduino platform can be easily done by integrating a MAX31855 to your project. This IC is a Cold-Junction Compensated Analog to Digital Converter amplifier especially design for use with a Thermocouple. The converter provides 14-Bit of ...
Raspberry Pi LED Bar Graph Display
