Many of you who follow my For Cheap Robots series are familiar with how to use MPIDE with chipKIT products. You may even be familiar with how to use the Arduino IDE with these boards. So far, however, I have not used MPLAB X very much. MPLAB X is a powerful IDE, made by Microchip, which gives […]

For those of you out there playing with the Wemos 32 LOLIN board I thought i would start to document some findings of mine so far. Current project is to interface to an ADXL345 accelerometer and as the photo shows above i have successfully connected it to the lolin and configured the ADXL as a […]

PICMETER Introduction This PICMETER project has grown into a useful and reliable tool for any electronics enthusiast. It runs on a PIC16F877 / 877A micro controller. It is a PIC development system It is 19-function multi-meter (voltmeter, frequency meter, signal generator, thermometer…) It is a component checker (R, L, C, diode …) with up to […]

Today we will explain how to perform the design, operation, and construction of a sumo robot, a robot is considered an automatic programmed machine to accomplish a certain task. In this opportunity, our robot will have the task of facing another robot on the battlefield whose The aim is to move the opponent out of […]

Where I live, the cold months seem to go on forever so I have to find some way to exercise that keeps me indoors. I could afford to go to a gym but it takes too much time, I’d have to show off my old body in public, and I wouldn’t be able to watch […]

A simple development board seems like a fun project. I’m recording my ideas here, and hope to get some input from other members of the ‘uC (or anyone else). To avoid feature creep, I think several levels of dev-board would be a good idea. This page will describe my ideas for a level one board, […]

Pinguino is a Bootloader and SFoftware that allows you to load and reload programs within a microcontroller, this time we are going to develop a Pinguino with the most economical and simple parts that we can find. You can install the X4 version of the Pinguino IDE, which is the Software that will allow us […]

This is a small board which use the well know Pic18F2550, this microcontroller is easy to find in the electronic stores and most of the electronics hobbyist have one of them in their stock. So in this opportunite We are going to build a develpment board, which means that will have all the neccesary to […]

A microcontroller is a small computer which fits on a single chip. Like other computers, the microcontroller follows a sequence of instructions, one at a time, to carry out a program. With the help of a microcontroller we are going to make a morse code flasher which flashes FSC. Step 1: Materials Required the things […]

1.0 INTRODUCTION  I decided to build and design a midi controller which is used to send commands to a computer running a DAW(digital audio workstation)  to control different parameters within it. The DAW I used is called Ableton Live. There are 16 button pads and 6 potentiometers on the front of the unit. Depending on […]
