Prototyping with Microcontrollers, Sensors, and Materials

Prototyping Prototyping involves the creation of an initial model of a product to conduct testing. Whether the product is intended for consumers, government entities, or businesses, it typically starts as a prototype, which may not include all the components or functionalities present in the final market-ready version. Prototypes act as proof of concept, demonstrating that […]

HOW TO PROGRAM A MICROCONTROLLER

HOW TO PROGRAM A MICROCONTROLLER

INTRODUCTION: In the ever-changing contemporary society, technology is not only progressing rapidly but also becoming increasingly prevalent in our day-to-day existence. The emergence of “intelligent” items is significantly transforming the way we design almost every conceivable product. From shoes integrated with chips that sync with our phones to monitor our physical activity, to refrigerators that […]

Build this microcontroller controlled rainbow flying disc and then throw it

Build this microcontroller controlled rainbow flying disc – and then throw it!

Hello all and welcome to this super simple and inexpensive instructable. If you like throwing frisbees AND you like flashing lights AND you like night time – then this instructable is for you! Have you ever waved a light or torch around and found that it ‘draws’ lines in the air? What if that light was changing colour […]

BATTERY CHARACTERIZER using PIC18F252

BATTERY CHARACTERIZER using PIC18F252

Introduction This circuit is a battery characterizer that applies a fixed load to a charged NiCad or NiMH cell and measures milliamp-hour capacity as it discharges. There is no single load that can be applied to a battery to measure milliamp-hours. It depends on the battery type, it’s intended application, etc. This device is simply […]

PIC 12F675 Programmable 12V Battery Monitor schematic

PIC 12F675 Programmable 12V Battery Monitor

Being an active outdoor guy, I have a few different types of 12V lights and a variety of battery types. – For flying RC planes and quadcopters at night, we use sealed lead acid batteries to power our club tables. – For fishing, I have a few 12V 2W led lights, powered by 2200mA, 3 […]

Microcontroller based Solar PV System’s charge controller, inverter, PowerBank & LED lamp with menu-based navigation system on LCD display. Story About this Project I have a few solar panels, 12 Volt batteries, transformers and few more stuff laying around for a while crying out aloud to make some good use of them. Thus the birth […]

RGB LED PWM Driver1

RGB LED PWM Driver for High Power 350mA LEDs using PIC12F629

Description This project combines a PIC and three constant current ‘buck’ converters to produce an RGB LED controller that will operate with the the high power 350mA LEDs using PWM to control the LED brightness.  By driving the red, green and blue LEDs with varying pulse widths the controller can generate up to 16 million colours using […]
