One of my circuits that I build quite often (20 – 40 at a time), uses a PIC 12F675. I had the following issues: The boards that I make, does not have in-circuit programming capabilities. This is to allow for a small PC board layout. PICs thus need to be programmed out of circuit. I

At home I have a few electrical Rolling Shutters that are controlling via a switch with which you can let them go up or down. When the Rolling Shutter reaches the end of its up or down movement, the motor of the Rolling Shutter stops automatically and you can put the switch that controls it

I am presenting a best class USB Universal Programmer for both PIC and AVR Microcontrollers. In our present market the universal programmer supporting much devices with combination of PIC and AVR are not in common, they are expensive also. This programmer is very cheap which is less than ₹500(10$). It is made with easily available

This instructable describes how to build a stand-alone heart rate meter using Easy Pulse mikro sensor and mikroElektronika‘s clicker 2 for PIC18FJ board. An OLED W click board is also used to display the heart beat rate in beats per minute (BPM). The above figure shows all the things you would need to build this project. Step 1: Setup, Firmware, and

In this instructable I want to show you how to control a servo using a microcontroller (18F2550) and how to avoid using an unknown library to control a servo. Step 1: Materials Power supply Breadboard Wires or jumpers Resistors Transistor or optocoupler Microchip microcontroller PICC Compiler(It could be another one, but I’m going to use

On the first part of this instructable, I demonstrated how to program a PIC12F1822 using MPLAB IDE and XC8 compiler, to send a simple string wirelessly using cheap TX/RX 433MHz modules. The receiver module was connected via a USB to UART TTL cable adapter to a PC, and the data received were displayed on RealTerm.

This project is a variation on the Remote Control Rolling Shutter project that I posted earlier, see: https://www.instructables.com/id/Remote-Controlled… The biggest difference is that I did not only prototype this project but I actually build it to be used in my home. At home I have an electric fire place which has a heater on board.

At home I have a salt lamp. This lamp needs a regular small 15 Watt light bulb that lights up and warms up the lamp. When the lamp is switched on you normally should not dim the lamp because of the lamp heat that the salt lamp needs to get rid of the moisture it

Hi! This is a short Instructable on making a PIC programmer which acts as a PicKit 2. I made this because it is way cheaper than buying an original PicKit and because Microchip, the manufacturers of PIC microcontrollers and the PicKit programmer, provides schematics and software, making it really easy for us to design our
