China start-up enables 5TB SSDs
Posted on: 12 Jan 2017
Three year-old Sage Microelectronics of Hangzhou, China has produced an SSD controller IC that enables SSD densities of 5TB. “Until now, cost-competitive SSD densities were limited to 1 TB by the maximum capacity of flash memory chips, and by the fan-out limitations imposed on flash controllers by the high number of interface traces required for […]
Infrared Remote Control with Microcontroller
Posted on: 11 Jan 2017
This little project will demonstrate how you can use NEC IR protocol based TV, DVD or VCR remote control to control you home appliances like fan bulb or virtually anything. There are lots of projects out there to accomplish this task but i have to write my own code because of too many requests on […]
Galvanic Skin Response System
Posted on: 11 Jan 2017
The Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) is a property of the skin to exhibit electrical characteristics. It is also known as Electrodermal Activity (EDA), Electrodermal Response (EDR), Electrodermal Level (EDL), Skin Conductance Activity (SCA), Skin Conductance Response (SCR), and a lot more. The GSR utilizes the principle that skin property varies with the state of sweat […]
3-Switch Mini IR Remote Control for PIC10F200
Posted on: 11 Jan 2017
Description This project is a 3 button mini IR remote control which transmits 12-bit SIRC IR signals as used by Sony remote controls. It has been designed to work with both the 2-channel relay driver board and 3-channel relay driver board projects also on this website. The board uses Microchip’s low cost PIC10F200 microcontroller along […]
Temperature Recorder using PIC12F683 microcontroller
Posted on: 10 Jan 2017
Description This project uses a MicrochipPIC microcontroller, a serial EEPROM and a thermistor to create a temperature recorder. Performance The temperature is measured and stored at user programmable intervals; this can be from 1 second to 256 seconds. The time interval is set by programming it and the start time into the EEPROM. Most of […]
BOOTLOAD THE PIC18F4550 – FIRMWARE UPDATING
Posted on: 10 Jan 2017
BOOTLOAD PIC18F4550 – FIRMWARE UPDATING SETTING THE PIC18F4550 IN RD/WR ( BOOTLOAD ) MODE FOR BOOTLOADING Loading / updating new code into the USB INTERFACE BOARD can be done with a Bootloader Software. While searching for good bootloader, I found some nice tutorial on eegeek.net and piccoder.co.uk for BOOTLOADING the USB INTERFACE board. The tutorial […]
Designing and Building the Macro Watch
Posted on: 10 Jan 2017
Three weeks before the Houston Maker Faire Chris came to me asking if we could whip up a low cost giveaway for the faire. I wanted to giveaway something more than a blinky LED badge since that is the typical electronic swag at Maker Faire. It had to be something that the person would wear […]
USocket – USB controlled Socket with PIC18F4550
Posted on: 10 Jan 2017
Introduction The idea of this project is to control (switch off/on) two power sockets with a computer by using its USB port. I’ve chosen USB in first place because I wanted to experiment with the PIC18F4550 microchip’s microcontroller, and secondly because the power supplied by this port (500mA) is enough to activate a relay without […]
In circuit serial programmer for PIC16F87X
Posted on: 09 Jan 2017
Intro Here you can find all resources you need to build your own in-circuit serial PIC16F87X programmer. After experimenting with the PIC16F84, time had come to move on to more powerful devices, such as the PIC16F871. These devices offer a low voltage progamming (LVP) mode. This basically means that it is possible to modify the […]
First Time Programming a Microcontroller
Posted on: 09 Jan 2017
First Time Programming a Microcontroller In my previous post we have carried out the construction of the base Circuit board for our USB demo Interface Board.So lets begin with out next part for little but more info about the pic18f USB on PCB. (If wish then you can also review my pic18f4550 tutorial for beginner) […]
