Joy Stick Controller using PIC12F629

This project controls two servo motors – both clockwise and anticlockwise and has variable speed. You can use the Joy Stick to “pan and tilt” a remote camera or provide “left-right-up-down” action for a crane or an animation on your model layout. The project also tests servo motors. The CIRCUIT The circuit is fairly simple. […]

Schematic Displaying ScrollingMoving text on 16x2 lcd Using Pic16f877 and Pic18f452 Microcontroller

Displaying Scrolling(Moving) text on 16×2 lcd Using Pic16f877 and Pic18f452 Microcontroller

Displaying moving or scrolling text on lcd(16×2,8×1,16×4,8×2,16×1,20×1,20×2 etc) is very easy. You just need to know how to efficiently use lcd commands.In this project i am using pic 16f877 microcontroller to display text and then scroll it on the lcd. The lcd which i am using is 16×2. Where 16 represents number of coulombs and

The simple Joule Thief

The Joule Thief is such an easy and simple device, but what it does is amazing. It can use a battery that is not usable in any other electronic device and give it life again. It can even take a battery that won’t even power a basic LED by itself when it is brand new

Interfacing Real Time Clock RTC DS1307 with PIC Microcontroller

Interfacing Real Time Clock (RTC) DS1307 with PIC Microcontroller

DS1307 is a low power serial real time clock with full binary coded decimal (BCD) clock/calendar plus 56 bytes of NV SRAM (Non Volatile Static Random Access Memory). Data and Address are transferred serially through a bidirectional I2C bus. The RTC provides year, month, date, hour, minute and second information. The end date of months is automatically adjusted
