Here is a modified and improved electronic lock design. For Arduino version click here.It is largely based on Digital Lock article, however this time a real electronic lock was used instead of a solenoid. The code is a 4 digit number ...

Here is another Arduino based design and this time I’ll show you how a 4-Digit Code Electronic Lock can be built with Arduino Mega or compatible boards. For similar design based on PIC16F877 click this link. The I/O I’ve used ...

For this project two PIC16F877 MCU's were used, see project schematics below. Slave PIC runs  LEDs decoding and multiplexing code on data received from Master. 7-Segment inputs connected to PORTC,B and common digits anodes to PORTB,A via 2N3906 collectors for ...

8x8 LED Matrix chaser based on Arduino MEGA compatible board will be presented in this post. It uses a LED dot matrix display module with two 74HC595 shift register chips connected in serial to control the LED output. Similar design ...

Up Down Counter design based on Arduino MEGA compatible board is the topic of this article.it uses 2x16 LCD display to show the counter values and 4x3 keypad to input initial 3 digit number.The counter will count Up/Down according to ...

Here is another fan controller design based on PIC microcontroller, this time it's temperature controlled and can be used to monitor Hard Drive temperature and adjust the fan speed accordingly or as a case fan controller. This post following recently ...

Here is another modification of a digital voltmeter. This time with 7 – Segment LED Display. These circuits seems to be more popular than other designs so I’ve decided to  publish another variant. You can find 4 variations of digital voltmeter on ...

Arduino 4 Digit LED 7-Segment Countdown Timer based on Arduino MEGA will be shown in this post.  For LCD version of this design follow this link. Similar project that uses PIC16F876 MCU can be found at this link. Raspberry Pi ...

A simple wave generator should be a part of every electronics enthusiast toolset. Basic Sine/Square output in reasonable frequency range will be sufficient for general use. Luckily such generators are available in form of a very popular AD9850 module.  Search ...

Here is another digital clock design based on Arduino platform. This time it uses 4-Digit LED Dot Matrix module to show the time. Similar design with LCD display is available here. The Dot Matrix module consists of four MAX7219 chips ...
