A brief overview of Allegro ACS712 current sensor. Part 2 Interface the sensor with a PIC microcontroller Schematic

A brief overview of Allegro ACS712 current sensor. Part 2 – Interface the sensor with a PIC microcontroller

In the first part of this discussion, the features of ACS712 device were briefly discussed. Now we will use that theory to implement the ACS712 sensor to make a simple DC current meter. The analog output voltage from the sensor is measured through an ADC channel of the PIC16F1847 microcontroller. A voltage to current conversion

LCD interface with Microcontroller PIC Beginner’s guide

LCD interface with Microcontroller PIC: Beginner’s guide using pic microcontoller

How to interface LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) display module to PIC microcontroller? LCD is a passive component, that is it does not make any light but just modifies the light passing through it for alphanumeric displays. LCD is exclusively manufactured to be used with microcontrollers, which means that it cannot be triggered by usual IC
