Maximum Power Point Tracking Let’s cover the basics first. A Maximum Power Point Tracker is an intermediate circuit placed between a solar panel and the load being powered. Solar panels produce the maximum amount of power at a specific voltage which varies with light irradiance as well as board temperature. The MPPT interfaces the solar panel with […]

AAEON, a major developer of industrial computing solutions, is releasing a Display Box Kit to work in conjunction with its successful OMNI Series. The new kit builds on the series’ modular design and allows users and distributors to quickly convert panel PCs into digital displays and vice-versa. In addition to connecting Display Box Kits to […]

A few weeks ago Open Electronics announced their new “Fishino Piranha” board. It is one of the first boards to imitate the Arduino MKR. The Fishino Piranha follows with the release of their Uno-inspired “Fishino 32” board, which was released at the start of last year. The Piranha has the same 32-bit Microchip PIC32MX as the previous board with […]

Today I came up with another engineering project for electronics and communication students, Android and Bluetooth controlled robot using PIC Microcontroller with object detecting capability. After installing MikroElectron’s Robot Control App from Play Store you should be able to control the robot with your android phone/ tablet over bluetooth signal. The eye catching feature of this project […]

The first step to designing a battery charger is choosing a battery charger IC from the vast field of available solutions. To make an informed decision, a design team must first clearly define the battery parameters (chemistry, cell count, etc.) and the input parameters (solar, USB, etc.). The team must then search for chargers that […]

Contact-less controlled automatic wardrobe light turns on the LED when you open the wardrobe door. Τhe project is based on Hall effect IC including LED driver and tiny magnet. Board doesn’t require any mechanical switch. When magnet is close to the board, LED is off, when you open the wardrobe door magnet goes far from […]

Microchip has announced at Electronica 2018 in Munich its new  SAM R34/35 integrated LoRa System-in-Package (SiP) family which combines an ultra-low-power 32-bit microcontroller, a sub-GHz RF LoRa transceiver and a software stack. The chip is built specifically for the Internet of Things and for remote sensor platforms that only wake up periodically to transmit small amounts of data. The chip […]

Let’s create a multi-function LED lamp, always connected via wireless, thanks to Arietta G25. Since several years already, it is possible to find systems for home automation: irrigation, doors and windows, lighting, air conditioning and alarm systems, everything can be centralized and planned. Recently, the classical control boxes have been replaced by smart systems that […]

This tutorial provides sample circuits to set up a 555 timer in monostable, astable, and bistable modes as well as an in depth discussion of how the 555 timer works and how to choose components to use with it. The 555 timer is a chip that can be used to create pulses of various durations, to output […]

Do you find it hard to get up from your cozy bed at night, just to turn off the lights? Do you want to operate your home appliances simply by a click of your TV remote? Home appliances include all types of electrical equipment available in your home. It does not matter whether it is […]
