Measuring muscle activation via electric potential, referred to as electromyography (EMG) , has traditionally been used for medical research and diagnosis of neuromuscular disorders. However, with the advent of ever shrinking yet more powerful microcontrollers and integrated circuits, EMG circuits and sensors have found their way into prosthetics, robotics and other control systems. Yet, EMG […]

PIC MicroController Volume Adjuster Program(Proteus 8 Stimulation)
Hello everyone, The important aspect of every learning is to induce curiosity and doing something meaningful to satisfy that.With the help of that curiosity, I’m here making a volume adjuster program which resembles the same in most devices but not that much, Here the default volume will be 10.Maximum volume will be 20 as well […]
LEDs sync to music (with pics of my awesome computer case mod)
I’m finishing up my computer table i’ve been working on and one of the final touches is making LEDs sync to the speakers. I have some pics of my computer too. This project took me about 15 minutes and was free because i had the parts laying around. Step 1: Materials Items: -TIP31 transistor -4 […]
How to get started with PICAXE 08M microcontroller
This is instructable for how to get started with PICAXE 08M microcontroller. To get started, you need: – 08M Protoboard or same kind of board (Can be homemade) – A LED – AXE027 USB Cable – 3V Power supply Step 1: Connect the led to pin 4 Just connect cathode lead to Ground, and anode […]
Easy 16F84 Microcontroller Programmer – JDM
In this instructable , I ‘ll show you how I built and tested this simple yet powerful circuit . The JDM Programmer is my favorite Microcontroller programmer. It is a simple circuit and compatible with many software loaders. I ‘ve built this circuit many years ago and learned Microcontroller programming using it and built many […]
PIC 16F917 Gyroscope interface
In this post we will study the ADC ( Analog-to-Digital ) Module of the Microcontroller PIC16F917 . We will study a real circuit of PIC16F917 interfacing to a semiconductor Gyroscope. The Gyroscope is a motion sensor that senses tilt in a certain direction . The used sensor is a yaw rate sensor ( free sample […]
PIC 3x3x3 LED cube
Here´s my 3x3x3 LED cube, it’s controlled by a PIC16F628A microcontroller. This is my first microcontroller project that finally works, so i suppose is not that difficult to make for beginners. I hope you’ll enjoy that instructable and even make your own LED cube! Step 1: Materials The PIC drives the cube without external IC’s […]
Wireless Radio Frequency Module Using PIC Microcontroller
It’s a Microcontroller Based DIY Electronics Project. Named Wireless RF Module Using PIC Microcontroller. The RF module is a small electronic circuit used to transmit, receive, or transceive radio waves on one of a number of carrier frequencies. RF modules are widely used in consumer applications such as garage door openers, wireless alarm systems, industrial […]
Simple Button Keypad – Microcontroller
Simple method for creating a custom button keypad that doesn’t require separate hardware. Just your microcontroller buttons a few resistors. What we have here is 9 buttons and 6 signal lines (3 inputs, 3 outputs). The basic setup is in a grid pattern where the three input lines come down as columns (PIN0, PIN1, and PIN2), and […]
