Teddy nightlight multicolor A nice night light multicolor, ideal for baby’s room. For the realization I used: – Out of a pack of bubble bath for children in the shape of teddy bear – a nightlight with positive economic pressure – Complete circuit with a PIC16F84A (I was at home, but you can use any […]

DIGITAL CLOCK CIRCUITS
A Digital Clock can be made easily by using PIC Microcontroller, DS1307 and a 16*2 LCD. I have already posted about Interfacing DS1307 RTC with PIC Microcontroller. The DS1307 RTC can work either in 24-hour mode or 12-hour mode with AM/PM indicator. It automatically adjusts for months fewer than 31 days including leap year compensation […]
Project on making calculator using PIC16F877 and Mikcro C Pro
Here I give you tutorial of Project on making calculator using PIC16F877 and Mikcro C Pro. After go through this project and learn the technique you can implement in your project. In my previous post I show you how to interface keypad 4 x 4 matrix’s If you not see that you should go through it […]
Interfacing of PIC16F84A with DS1307 (RTC) code and Proteus simulation
This post provides the code for interfacing DS1307 RTC with PIC16F84A microcontroller. This DS1307 RTC has i2c based interface and PIC16F84A doesn’t have any built in i2c modules, so software i2c module is created in the code. This code is written in C language using MPLAB with HI-TECH C compiler. You can download this code from the ‘Downloads‘ section at the bottom […]
POV Toy
I recently had the urge to create some “eye candy”; Thinking along the lines of my LED Sign (it’s not dead, just waiting on parts!), I chose to create a similar effect, using only a single line of leds, instead of a 5×7 array. Persistence of Vision is some sort of effect, either psychological or […]
Aurora 9×18 RGB LED art using PIC24F08KA101 microcontroller
Aurora 9×18 RGB LED art *** Check out my blog for updated version of this project and more! *** My obsession of LEDs has led me to this. Aurora 9×18 is a thing of beauty (if I can say so myself) – has 162 RGB-LEDs in a circular configuration. The color of each circle is […]
PIC16C54 dual dice electronic project circuit
An electronic dice project circuit can be designed in various modes , using logic circuit or using microcontrollers . This electronic project is based on the PIC16C54 microcontroller , manufactured by Microchip . This project is a simple dual dice electronic project , that use few external electronic parts and LED displays , to generate ( simulate ) dices […]
A pic programmer circuit based on AN589. using pic microcontoller
AN589 is microchip’s application note for a parallel port pic programmer circuit which I chose as I wanted something reliable to get up and running quickly. It is really quite a simple circuit and its main objective is to provide ICSP connections to your pic microcontroller. That the PGM signal is not provided – it’s […]
High res cap meter with PIC 16F628
High resolution capacitance meter measures in 0.01pF digits. Total range 0pF to 50uF. – 27th Jun 2011, Updated 25th may 2013. Another PIC based capacitance meter? Although there are a few PIC based “pico” capacitance meters on the internet this design has some advantages over the other designs I have seen; 1. It has very […]
Time Display unit for a GPS module using pic microcontroller
I decided to build a device to permanently display accurate time received from a cheap GPS module installed in my workshop. Having obtained a PIC18F1320 microcontroller for experimentation, I wanted to learn about the new features of the PIC18F range using only minimal hardware to control the display. I am currently using it with the […]
