Aurora 48 is a compact and thin profile full-color LED sequencer. It’s built entirely with surface mount components, so the profile is nice and clean. Features Capable of individually controlling 48 Full color LEDs. Each LED can be faded in 7 bit per channel – 2,097,152 colors. Gamma corrected brightness curve for very smooth fades. Simple, […]
I already posted about Interfacing DC Motor with PIC Microcontroller. In our robotics applications we may have to control the speed of the DC Motor. In this tutorial we will see how to control the speed of a DC Motor using Pulse Width Modulation (PWM). By using PWM we can easily control the average power […]
Introduction A Stepper Motor is a brushless, synchronous DC electric motor, which divides the full rotation into a number of equal steps. It finds great application in field of microcontrollers such as robotics. Please refer the article Stepper Motor or Step Motor for detailed information about working of stepper motor, types and modes of operation. Unipolar Motor […]
Voltmeter and Ammeter can be easily made using PIC Microcontroller having ADC (Analog to Digital Converter). I am using PIC16F877A and the result is displayed on an LCD Display. PIC16F877A is enough if you do this project only for testing purposes. I suggest to use PIC with low pin numbers and multiplexed 7 segment display […]
The HandySwipe provides a portable magnetic card reader interface and display. It collects card data from a “Type 2″ card reader (shown here), and displays the data on a small character LCD screen. Type 2 stripes are by far the most common in use, such as on credit cards and drivers’ licenses. The device can […]
In this tutorial we will see How to Interface a 16×2 character LCD module with PIC 16F877A Microcontroller using MPLAB X IDE and MPLAB XC8 C Compiler. 16×2 Character LCD is a very basic and low cost LCD module which is commonly used in electronic products and projects. 16×2 means it contains 2 rows that […]
LED message system on a Strida folding bicycle wheel After I’ve bought my strida folding bicycle, one of the first things I’ve done was to check out instructables.com for any strida related projects. And quite astonished to see that there wasn’t any. So I’ve planned to make an instructable that can be used on my […]
Labels: circuit >> data logger >> MICROCONTROLLER >> PIC >> Project >> schematic The aim of the project is to build a lab-grade data logger with PIC18F45K20 microcontroller and a 20-bit delta-sigma converter. It’s named as G5 Data Logger. This new data converter technology using delta-sigma simplifies the design of high resolution data recording device. […]
16×2 Character LCD is a very basic LCD module which is commonly used in electronics projects and products. It contains 2 rows that can display 16 characters. Each character is displayed using 5×8 or 5×10 dot matrix. It can be easily interfaced with a microcontroller. In this tutorial we will see how to write data […]
This project is a miniature 1-chip alarm. All you need is a tilt switch, battery and piezo to produce a complete alarm. If you want a very high output, you can add a Darlington buffer transistor, piezo tweeter and a 10mH choke. The chip does all the work. It sits in sleep mode (100 microamps) […]
