Making a simple clap switch
Posted on: 05 Jun 2017
A clap switch is a fun project for beginners. It switches on and off electrical appliances with a sound of clapping hands. Today we will discuss about making a simple clap switch that operates when it detects two clapping sounds in a row. It uses an electret microphone as a transducer for converting a clapping […]
2 Digit Counter using PIC12F629 Microcontroller
Posted on: 05 Jun 2017
This article describes a 2-Digit Counter using a Microchip PIC12F629. It shows what can be done with an 8-pin chip having just 5 output lines and one input line. The chip drives two7-segment displays and this would normally require 7 lines to drive the segments plus another one or two lines to select the displays. […]
Core Independent Peripherals – Simplify Your Design While Reducing Processor Overhead
Posted on: 04 Jun 2017
Core Independent Peripherals The following Core Independent Peripherals take 8-bit MCU performance to a new level, while requiring no processor overhead. Configurable Logic Cell (CLC) The CLC provides programmable combinational and sequential logic. It also enables the on-chip interconnection of peripherals and I/O, thereby reducing external components, saving code space and adding functionality. Features User-configurable […]
Linear Bench Power Supply
Posted on: 04 Jun 2017
DETAILED DESCRIPTION This project is a simple linear bench power supply with adjustable voltage and current. It is meant to be a learning experience, putting ideas of circuit design, feedback, stability into practice building a complete practical power supply. I have intentionally avoided using a 3 terminal regulator or purpose built chip and instead implemented […]
Running LED dice
Posted on: 04 Jun 2017
Tons of LED dice projects with different output forms have been published online. The most common output configuration in those projects is a 3-1-3 setup (two rows of three LEDs and one LED at in the middle) of seven LEDs, which simulates the actual patterns of dots found on the six faces of a traditional […]

Posted on: 04 Jun 2017
What is Nextion Nextion is a Seamless Human Machine Interface (HMI) solution that provides a control and visualisation interface between a human and a process, machine, application or appliance. Nextion is mainly applied to IoT or consumer electronics field. It is the best solution to replace the traditional LCD and LED Nixie tube. This solution […]
PIC USB HID (Human Interface Device) Interfacing
Posted on: 03 Jun 2017
For long time, UART is the only and best way to interface with PC. It is easy to adapt and handle. Though some devices (like: GSM modem etc.) have UART on themselves, but for interfacing with PC, there is only one thing now and that is USB Introduction The purpose of this article is to […]

Posted on: 03 Jun 2017
This Half-bridge driver based on IR2104 gate driver IC and N channel Dpak MOSFET , The IR2104 is a high voltage, high speed power MOSFET driver with independent high and low side referenced output channels. HVIC and latch immune CMOS technologies enable ruggedized monolithic construction. The logic input is compatible with standard COMOS or LSTTL […]
Line follower robot using microcontroller
Posted on: 03 Jun 2017
A line following robot is a versatile machine utilized to detect and take after the dark lines that are drawn on the white surface. As this robot is produced utilizing a breadboard, it will be exceptionally easy to build. This system can be fused into the Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) for giving the simple method […]
Automatic Power Factor Controller using Microcontroller
Posted on: 03 Jun 2017
The thirst for new sources of energy is unquenchable, but we seldom realize that we are wasting a part of the electrical energy every day due to the lagging power factor in the inductive loads we use. Hence there is an urgent need to avoid this wastage of energy. Before getting into the details of […]
