3x3x3 LED Cube Here is my 3x3x3 LED Cube project. It runs using a PIC16F690. Along with the brief explanation of how to make it, I have also included the .asm file for the PIC and a piece of software written in VB.NET that you can create your own LED patterns. These can be exported […]
Intro: Mood vase I’m a fan of LEDs, lots of LEDs. So here’s a slightly less crass way of using LEDs for decorative purposes. While this is by no means a neat and polished solution, and probably not the first of its kind, however the pulse effect is as far as I have seen unique,
48 Channel Mono / 16 Channel RGB LED Controller The 48 Channel Mono/16 Channel RGB LED Controller by Chromation Systems can be used to independantly control 48 groups/channels (up to 120ma per group) of mono-color LEDs or 16 groups/channels of common anode RGB LEDs. It utilizes 3x TLC5940 LED drivers controlled with a PIC 18F2550

Overview Our project consists of a 2m DotStar LED strip with 120 individually addressable LEDs and seven accelerometers with the Big Board to depict three different rides that are typically found in an amusement park: the roller coaster, the drop tower, and the bouncer. We implement 1D kinematic equations iteratively to approximate the real-world physics
Overview Matlab has a “serial” function that allows it to communicate through a serial port. This project is to establish serial port connection with the PIC microcontroller and demonstrate bidirectional communication between the PIC and a Matlab program. For demonstration purposes, the PIC will send digital potentiometer readings to Matlab as well as receive keystrokes
PIC16F877A Pin out & Descriptions There are 5 ports that provide parallel I/O Interfaces to outside world PORTA, PORTB, PORTC, PORTD, PORTE Each port provides 8 bidirectional digital I/O lines which are connected to PIC16F877A pins provided that alternate functions are not selected on that Port. Eventhough Bidirectional at nay time the I/O line can
This project creates a RGB LED lit love heart which is controlled by a PIC12F683 microcontroller. I designed the project as a gift for my wife on our 15th wedding anniversary (since she puts up with my addiction to electronics I thought she deserved something in return!). The love heart is made from a 200x150x6mm
A point of light oscillating in 2 perpendicular axes draws a pattern named “Lissajous Figure” (1857) or “Bowditch Curve” (1815). Patterns range from simple to complex depending on the frequency ratio and phase of the 2 axes.A 1:1 ratio with 0 phase difference draws a straight line at 45° angle. In this project the frequency ratio of the 2
Some time ago the tail light of my bike stopped working. When I opened it, there was a small PCB with some electronics and a LED in it. The problem was the push button switch that did not function. I could have replaced the switch but something about this design disturbed me. The point is
The flashing LED is a tried and tested way of getting your board working, but it is somewhat tired as well. Since we have been supplying the proto shield with the blueberry purchases I thought it would be a good idea to do something different with the traditional “Hello World” project.This project is intended for
