The PIC sonar range finder works by transmitting a short pulse of sound at a frequency inaudible to the ear (ultrasonic sound or ultrasound). Afterwards the microcontroller listens for an echo. The time from transmission to echo reception lets you calculate the distance from the object. PIC Sonar Specification Range ~5cm – 300cm Accuracy +/-3cm […]
Comments: All resistors are 1/4W.The circuit is powered by 9…15V DC or AC. When In Circuit Programming (ISP) connectors are used, is possible the programmer to be powered from target’s power source. Diodes D2 and D6 protect the regulator LM7805, when target’s power is used. ‘ XTAL JUMP ‘ is used to cut XTAL when […]
Description: This project is a fine combination of analog and digital electronics. This project is designed so as to fulfill the requirements of the industry applications, home applications. The project consists of parameters monitoring, parameter storage. PC interface is one of the main features of the project in which various data like value of parameters, […]
We are now in the fourth part of the microcontroller tutorial. We have a microcontroller circuit diagram ready. It’s time to make a circuit board. I love this part. This is the “magical” step that takes the idea we started with and turns it into something real. But let’s recap. So far we have learned: […]
Analogue electronics, digital circuits and microcontrollers simulation, all in one. Another free Espresso-based minimisation tool. PLD and FPGA project flow Electronics circuit diagrams and projects based on microcontroller. 8051-BASED EEPROM MICROCONTROLLERS. HUM-FREE BATTERY ELIMINATOR Please I need a circuit diagram of a speed checker on highway with full project report write up, and all the […]
I got to thinking that an interest in hi-fi can be a bit geek ( in a good way ) so I thought one of my latest geek projects might be of interest to some of you. You could build the project ‘as is’ without learning embedded C programming or you could use the project […]
I love collecting and analyzing data. I also love building electronic gadgets. A year ago when I discovered the Arduino products, I immediately thought, “I’d like to collect environmental data.” It was a windy day in Portland, OR, so I decided to capture wind data. I looked at some of the instructables for anemometers and […]
The giant (by radio control standards) servos above are shown adjacent to a Nokia 3310 mobile phone to give an idea of the scale. The arms are 12cm long – perfect for lifting a bank of solar panels (wing). Our local Model Aerodrome in Seaside Road, Eastbourne, supplied these beauties, taking the trouble to source […]
Combining Coffee and Electronics – An Idea for a Project Having played around with fixed function logic ICs, such as the Johnson counter used in the Spindicator project, I was keen to move on and experiment with programmable microcontrollers. I decided to obtain and play with some PICAXE chips, as they looked like they would provide an […]
ave an old hard drive that no longer works? As long as it still spins up chances are you could build a clock out of your old hard drive! You will need some electronic knowledge, some common electronic components and a bit of patience. The clock that is produced isn’t exactly practical since most hard […]
