Anti-Drowsiness Alarm
Posted on: 09 Nov 2016
This reference design is an anti-drowsiness alarm, which aims to keep the drivers alert by disrupting one’s drowse. According to the study by U. S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), drowsy driving is the primary contributor of at least 100,000 auto crashes a year. Statistics shows that most crashes caused by drowsy driving occur […]
The Pill Reminder
Posted on: 09 Nov 2016
Back in January 2014 I was at a meetup of Baby Boomer Makers at TechShop in San Carlos, California. We were going around the table, each taking a turn to talk about projects we’d like to do. Bob spoke up to describe a problem his elderly mother was having – she couldn’t remember to take […]
Connect CAN Protocol with PIC
Posted on: 08 Nov 2016
The mikroC PRO for PIC provides a library (driver) for working with the CAN module. The CAN is a very robust protocol that has error detection and signalization, self–checking and fault confinement. Faulty CAN data and remote frames are re-transmitted automatically, similar to the Ethernet. Data transfer rates depends on the distance. For example, 1 […]
Desolder professionally with NO-CLEAN flux wicks
Posted on: 08 Nov 2016
Everyone who´s ever tried to suck off a solder from a solder pad by means of a solder absorbing braid (wick) will probably confirm, that this tool belongs to a “must have” equipment of every professional or amateur workplace. What´s the charm of a desoldering braid? Above all in the fact, that it´s able to […]
Wifi throwie : improved version – faster, smaller, cheaper
Posted on: 08 Nov 2016
A few months ago, Andreas presented a nice version of the “throwie” (a LED packed with a small battery that you can throw & see shining for hours) using an ESP8266 instead of a LED : a “wifi throwie”. He could not make it work with button cell batteries (the ESP8266 draws too much current) […]

Overview The SMA130 is a new compact , triaxial acceleration sen sor for non – safety automotive applications, packaged in a LGA pac k- age. With its ultra – small footprint of only 2 mm x 2 mm and its very low power consumption, it provides a cost – efficient one – chip solution especially […]
Connect CAN-SPI with PIC Controller
Posted on: 07 Nov 2016
The SPI module is available with a number of the PIC compliant MCUs. The mikroC PRO for PIC provides a library (driver) for working with mikroElektronika’s CANSPI Add-on boards (with MCP2515 or MCP2510) via SPI interface. The CAN is a very robust protocol that has error detection and signalization, self–checking and fault confinement. Faulty CAN […]
Real Time Clock Circuit using Mircocontroller
Posted on: 07 Nov 2016
Here I am going to teach you a simple circuit of 24 hour digital clock display that can also be used in 12 hour format by simply loading the corresponding clock program. You can download the hex files for both 12 hour format and 24 hour time system from the link given in this article. […]
