Infrared Camera on the PIC32

Introduction The purpose of this project was to create thermal images displayed on the TFT screen of the PIC32 using data inputted through a thermal camera. A thermal image is an image where the colors are representative of the amount of heat radiated by that location. We used a FLIR Lepton Camera that takes frames

Simple RS232C Level Converter using Transistors

Simple RS232C Level Converter using Transistors using pic microcontroller

There’re many, who built the Easy Programmer or C-52 EvaluationBoard, asking for the RS232C level converter chip, DS275. Many have changedto MAX232 instead, because of not available in his home. Here is anothersimple and cheap circuit using small signal transistor providing TTL toRS232C level converter. A circuit diagram shown above was used two small signal

PIC32 Digital Synthesizer

PIC32 Digital Synthesizer

Introduction Our final project for ECE 4760: Digital Design Using Microcontrollers is a portable keyboard digital synthesizer using the PIC32MX250F128B microcontroller. The PIC creates various sound effects using direct digital synthesis (DDS) and frequency modulation (FM) synthesis which can be modified using user input on our keyboard’s easy-to-use user interface (UI). Our synthesizer is also

The IDE Project

The IDE Project

4 prototype boards arrived today. After going over them carefully, I found 4 lines that crossed each other. After some quick surgery with a knife and some solder and wire, the IDE project is now semi portable. The power supply is still out of a PC, so it’s tied to an AC outlet. I’d like

PIC Light Chaser Schemetic

PIC Light Chaser

This month I am continuing with the PIC projects that I started in August. To be able to build this circuit you must build the August circuit which allows you the ability to program PIC’s. The circuit this month is a simple 8 light chaser built around a PIC. This will demonstrate how easy it
