POV Christmas Tree using PIC12F689 microcontroller
POV Christmas Tree Still don’t have a tree for this holidays?, Don’t worry here you have a small, reusable, eye-catching tree for your holiday needs. This project started as a SMD soldering tutorial for a course i’ve made in electronics, so it’s meant to be a one day project to learn a little bit of […]
Serial Addressable RGB PWM LED Driver using PIC16F628A
Overview Ever since I made the serial controlled RGB LED PWM driver I’ve had many requests for an addressable driver. Well I’ve finally got round to producing one. The code is now completed and tested and the prototype boards are fully working. The design process behind this project was to enable anyone with a bit […]
Easy Debugging Terminal using PIC16F84
Introduction This LCD terminal provide two modes of operation by selecting jumper J1. When J1 is open the terminal operate as a normal ascii display terminal, when J1 is closed the terminal displays the input serial data in hexadecimal format. This mode is useful for viewing raw data from the serial port output. Hardware Figure […]
World’s Smallest Low-speed USB Analyzer using pic16f877
[Any] idea is dead without a good application for it. So “California Dreamin’” USB virtual peripheral could be a very nice sample of academic research, but hardly anybody is going to build a keyboard or mouse using it. I have been thinking for a while what to do with it as well. First project that […]
Arduino powered temperature sensing RGB LED nightlight using PICaxe
About a year ago I started on a project to make a temperature controlled nightlight. I was inspired by seeing these lovely LED lamps styled as mushrooms growing out of pieces of wood. Those mushrooms were made out of glass, which was somewhat beyond my skills. However I then saw some had used translucent sculpey […]
Soundtrack using PIC16F688 Microcontroller
This project uses a microcontroller to drive a speaker and play one of two songs: Yakety Sax (the chase song from the Benny Hill Show) and Entrance of the Gladiators (the clown juggling unicycle song). The tunes are stored as a series of distinct notes. The frequency and duration of each a note is sent […]
Digital thermometer with auto saving log file in excel by Pic microcontroller
Digital thermometer with auto saving log file in excel by Pic microcontroller is vary advance, useful and realistic project. The implementation filed of this project is wide. Now a day’s atmospheric prediction saves lots of life. And for getting wright prediction we have to analysis lots of recorded data. By using this project it can […]
Underground locator generator for Radiodetection using PIC16F628
Introduction I obtained an early vintage Radiodetection® RD400 “LLTS” Precision Line Trace unit for a very low price through eBay. The RD400 is the receiver portion of a transmitter/receiver pair that comprise an underground cable locator system. Because the matching transmitter was not available (hence the low price,) I had to design one that matched […]
PIC12F675 ADC code and Proteus simulation
This post provides the ADC code using PIC12F675 microcontroller. 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 of this page. It is assumed that you know how to interface LCD with PIC12F675 microcontroller. If you don’t then please read this […]
