I love the Atmel AVR microcontrollers! Since building the Ghetto Development System described in this Instructable, I’ve had no end of fun experimenting with the AVR ATtiny2313 and the ATmega168 in particular. I even went so far as to write an Instructable on using switches as inputs, and extended the Ghetto Development System concept to CPLDs. During a […]
This guide hopefully will show you how to write C code that will allow you to read in an analog input (AI) value to your PIC microcontroller. I am using a PICkit 3 programmer with a PICkit 2 18-pin demo board. The microcontroller is a PIC1827, but the ideas discussed in this article will be […]
Today I came up with another engineering project for electronics and communication students, Android and Bluetooth controlled robot using PIC Microcontroller with object detecting capability. After installing MikroElectron’s Robot Control App from Play Store you should be able to control the robot with your android phone/ tablet over bluetooth signal. The eye catching feature of this project […]
PIC16F877A Pin out & Descriptions There are 5 ports that provide parallel I/O Interfaces to outside world PORTA, PORTB, PORTC, PORTD, PORTE Each port provides 8 bidirectional digital I/O lines which are connected to PIC16F877A pins provided that alternate functions are not selected on that Port. Eventhough Bidirectional at nay time the I/O line can […]
Finger Print Sensor, which we used to see in Sci-Fi movies a few years back, is now become very common to verify the identity of a person for various purposes. In present time we can see fingerprint-based systems everywhere in our daily life like for attendance in offices, employee verification in banks, for cash withdrawal or […]
In this tutorial will learn how to interface ADC0804(Analog to Digital Converter) with 8051(89c51,89c52) microcontroller. 8051 microcontrollers are pretty old and don’t have a build in analog to digital converter in them unlike their new rivals(Arduino, Pic microcontroller and many more). Hence we can not directly measure any analog value (voltage, Temperature present in the […]
Esp8266 based home automation system using wifi It is also cheap and be used for making cool projects connected to the Internet .Learn how to make a simple IOT Project with it .The ESP8266 WiFi Module is a self contained SOC with integrated TCP/IP protocol stack that can give any microcontroller access to your WiFi […]
Introduction LCDs (Liquid Crystal Displays) are used for displaying status or parameters in embedded systems. LCD 16×2 is 16 pin device which has 8 data pins (D0-D7) and 3 control pins (RS, RW, EN). The remaining 5 pins are for supply and backlight for the LCD. The control pins help us configure the LCD in command […]
