*** Check out my blog for updated version of this project and more! *** My obsession of LEDs has led me to this. Aurora 9×18 is a thing of beauty (if I can say so myself) – has 162 RGB-LEDs in a circular configuration. The color of each circle is controlled by a microcontroller using […]

This is my first instructable, so I hope everything is clear and hoping you find it interesting, and would appreciate any feedback, so here I go. I am sill testing this device with other people, but personally I have found my dream recall has improved dramatically, wow! some of the dreams are totally amazing. WARNING. Because

When I saw the Aurora LED 9×18 Instructable, I was inspired. However, it’s built on the PIC microcontroller while I am most familiar with the AVR microcontrollers. Plus, I already have the development and programming environments for AVRs, so I set about a redesign as a personal challenge. I wanted to make something (almost) just
“Ready for PIC“ is one of MikroElektronika‘s compact prototyping boards for 28 and 40 pin PIC microcontrollers. The board comes with PIC16F887 microcontroller which is preprogrammed with an UART bootloader firmware and thus eliminates the need of an external programmer. The on-board USB-UART module allows the serial data transfer between the PIC and a PC

Normally one tact switch requires one digital input pin of a microcontroller. Some designs implement keypad style multiplexing to get multiple switches on fewer inputs. However, there exist other techniques that allow you to connect many switches on a single input pin of a microcontroller. This tutorial demonstrates one such technique as applied to PIC12F683

A microcontroller comes with a limited number of general purpose input and output (GPIO) ports. However, some applications may require more ports than are available on the microcontroller. In such a case, GPIO expanders can be used to increase the I/O capability of the microcontroller. MCP23008 is one such device (manufactured by Microchip Technology) which

jump to a section:supplies about LED arrays design construction customizing/programming washing and wearing troubleshooting and FAQ **NOTE** As of Fall 2007, skip the ugly microcontroller programming (don’t buy the STK500 or the AVR chip)… Get a LilyPad Arduino instead. It’s much easier to sew and to program! See my LilyPad Arduino tutorial for help on

Description This project is a 2 channel infrared (IR) remote controlled relay driver with power saving. It works with 12-bit SIRC IR signals as used by Sony remote controls. The controller also features a power save feature which reduces the relay holding voltage to 50% of the relays nominal operating voltage once the relay has
