MOTM Compatible Dual Channel Quantizer

MOTM Compatible Dual Channel Quantizer

Introduction: This describes my original design dual channel quantizer inspired by Chris List’s ARP Style CV Quantizer design. My new implementation is an intelligent design that exploits the programmability of a Microchip PIC16F84. It will quantize voltages in 1/12 volt (semitone) or 1 volt (octave) steps from –10V to 10V. Quantization time is about 2ms […]

Single button code entry for a digital lock using PIC16F628A

The Button Code is a system that allows a single button to act as a keypad. The user enters a 4 digit code into the system using button taps. The button can be placed where the public can access it since like a keypad there are many combinations to keep guessers from activation the system. […]

Voltmeter Ammeter Kit Blue Backlight LCD

Voltmeter Ammeter Kit – Blue Backlight LCD

Voltmeter Ammeter is a great kit to measure voltage and current at the same time. It measures 0-70V or 0-500V voltage with 100mV resolution and current from 0 to 10A. It’s a perfect addition to any power supply, battery chargers and other electronic projects where voltage and current must be monitored. Kit uses PIC16F876A microcontroller […]

PIC micro Timer Code

PIC micro Timer Code

Here’s the minimal code to make timer 1 (a 16 bit timer) work using PICBasic. General descriptions of PIC timer variables used to control the timer: (you should be able to use these no matter what programming language you use): T1CON.0 is the first bit of the timer configuration byte, this bit is used to […]

Long Period Astable Timer

Long Period Astable Timer using PIC12F629

Description This software functions as a long period astable mutivibrator.  The mark and space period can be set from 1 second up to a maximum 65535 seconds (18h12m15s). Using the internal 4Mhz RC oscillator delays with an accuracy of 99% or better can be achieved  The code also implements an edge triggered reset and an […]

Digital Meter Adapter

Digital Meter Adapter – DMAD

Adding a Digital Meter and Functions to Analog Geiger Counters The Digital Meter Adapter is a expansion module for adding digital functions to Analog Geiger Counters that have a pulse output. If you’re geiger counter outputs a ttl pulse for every radioactive particle it detects, your Geiger counter will connect to Images SI Inc.’s DMAD […]

TinyWireMCP23008 MCP23008 library for ATtiny85 microcontroller

TinyWireMCP23008 – MCP23008 library for ATtiny85 microcontroller

If you want to know more… If you want to know more about ATtiny85 microcontroller and how to upload sketches to it, you may have a look to ATtiny85 vs ATmega328. About TinyWireMCP23008 was tested (and works) with a 8 MHz ATtiny85 and I2C standard bus mode and I2C fast bus mode. TinyWireMCP23008 was not […]

Nokia 1100 LCD Interfacing with Microcontroller

 Displaying content on a normal alphanumeric display is very limited ,we have to be limited with the font size and we can’t draw any graphics also. but convention Graphics lcd are really very expensive so here is the solution, you can use Nokia 1100 monochrome  LCD to display your large font text and graphics . […]

Temperature Alarm

A PIC-Based Temperature Alarm using PIC16C84

Presented is a simple temperature alarm which uses a PIC16C84 microcontroller and a 2-line LCD display. The alarm displays current temperature in both Celsius and Fahrenheit degrees and features a 3-key keypad which allows the user to set independent high and low termperature alarm points. The alarm also records the minimum and maximum temperatures encountered. […]
