I recently bought The Energy Detective (TED), a pretty inexpensive and friendly way to keep tabs on your whole house’s electricity usage. It’s a lot like having a more featureful version of your utility company’s power meter, sitting on your kitchen counter. It can estimate your utility bill, and tell you how much electricity and […]
We love to read emails from our visitors, Please let us know by clicking here if you find any kind of bug/error in our site. We will fix it as soon as possible. PIC Controlled Relay Driver This circuit is a relay driver that is based on a PIC16F84A microcontroller. The board includes four relays […]
MintLite – The Luxeon Powered Mint Tin Flashlight! This idea has been rattling around in my head for more than a month now, and I finally have thought it out enough to do some doodling in Eagle. The basic idea is built around a six watt Luxeon K2. I plan to use a pair of […]
GSM based Control System by pic microcontroller implements the emerging applications of the GSM Technology. Using GSM networks, a control system has been proposed that will act as an embedded system which can monitor and control appliances and other devices locally using built-in input and output peripherals. Remotely the system allows the user to effectively […]
This post provides the code for interfacing 24LC64 EEPROM with PIC16F84A microcontroller. This 24LC64 EEPROM has i2c based interface and PIC16F84A doesn’t have any built in i2c modules, so software i2c module is created in the code. This code is written in C language using MPLAB with HI-TECH C compiler. You can download this code from the ‘Downloads‘ section […]
I had purchased some huge (2″) 5×7 matrix a while ago, as part of my led sensor research. They’ve basically been banging around the lab since, getting pins bent and such. So this past weekend, I decided to put them to some other use. Their pin layout is sort of weird, it doesn’t match up […]
New Earth Time (NET) digital clock in recycled retro-modern case Ever get confused by GMT, or just wish you had a cooler way to keep track of time? Build a New Earth Time clock! Using a PIC microcontroller, some code, and a couple discrete parts, you too can have a unique timekeeping device to keep […]
I have a few old N64 controllers lying around and figured that it would be pretty cool to use them to control other things. In this article I will describe in detail every step I took to achieve this. I’ve used a PIC microcontroller, but it should not be too hard to port the code […]
Prometheus/Pandora’s Box Some of you monkeys out there think you can PWN me. You need to be Spanked. Here is an obfuscated ultraminimalized Monolith for you. It is enlightening and harmless, except to the devil, who really hates it, because I’m letting you have it (for “free”). You’re curious. So Make it, if you have […]
Making A Real Time Clock (RTC) is simple if you use a helper chip such as a DS1307 because you do not need to keep track of the length of each month or account for leap years. It is all done for you, plus you get the benefit of a battery back up system that […]
