Digital Arduino Voltmeter with Temperature
Posted on: 24 Jun 2016
Step 1: The case I dug out an appropriate case from the dumpster, milled out a rectangular hole for the lcd, and drilled holes to mount the LCD and the Arduino. I used brass standoffs and fiber washers to prevent shorts. Then I gave the whole case a quick spray of flat black to cover […]
Audio Power Amplifier with TDA2050
Posted on: 23 Jun 2016
This project is an audio amplifier based on TDA2050 and LM1875. This is not an ordinary project, but an attempt to make a PCB that is suitable for TDA2050 and LM1875 and has all the necessary circuitry on board – power supply, speaker protection, delayed turn-on and fast turn-off. This is achieved using the convenient […]
Learning Sequential Logic Design for a Digital Clock
Posted on: 23 Jun 2016
This instructable is for two purposes 1) to understand and learn the fundamentals of sequential logic 2) use that knowledge to create a digital clock. Digital clocks have been built by countless electronics hobbyists over the world. So why have I chosen to implement that? Well usually clock circuits available on the internet (all circuits […]
Cree LMH2 LED Module Versus Traditional CFL Options
Posted on: 22 Jun 2016
The Cree LMH2 LED Module provides unparalleled efficacy and light quality in a fully integrated module. Utilizing Cree’s True White Technology, the LMH2 provides beautiful 90 plus CRI lights in 4000 Kelvin, 3500 Kelvin, 3000 Kelvin, and 2700 Kelvin color temperatures. In addition, the LMH2 delivers 97 LPW efficacy across all CCT and lumen options. […]
Homebrew Arduino Pulse Monitor (Visualize Your Heartbeat)
Posted on: 22 Jun 2016
Movies look cool with those EKG (electrocardiogram), the one that beeps and detects heart activities. A few months ago, we had to shoot a hospital scene for our school project. We needed an EKG instrument. To keep the movie authentic, we didn’t want to fake the readings so we made the next best thing, a […]
RGB LED Disco Lights
Posted on: 21 Jun 2016
RGB LED disco light is a simple project designed around PIC16F72 microcontroller. This firmware is a RGB driver, as name suggests it is used to derive or light red, green and blue LEDs in particular fashion. Its main feature is the pattern shown on LEDs. It is quite difficult to describe pattern in words but […]
How to Build a (Piezo) Knock Sensor Circuit
Posted on: 21 Jun 2016
In this article, we go over how to build a piezo knock sensor circuit. A knock sensor is a sensor which produces a voltage in response to some type of physical stress such as a knock or vibration. This is why it’s called a knock sensor; it detects knocks. This sensor can be useful when […]
Simulating Logic Gates
Posted on: 20 Jun 2016
Introduction This project is a simple way of using the Arduino to simulate the behaviour of logic gates. Logic gates are explained on this page. The project does not actually carry out the function of the logic gate, just turns a light on or off based on one or two inputs. Effectively showing the truth […]
DS3231 OLED alarm clock with 2-button menu setting and temperature display
Posted on: 19 Jun 2016
UPDATE: V1.1 of clock packages uploaded for compatibility with latest IDEs. Video at:: http://youtu.be/ikNw1iLE9vg Alarm demo video: http://youtu.be/jlZBCuQeswA This is an OLED alarm clock I built using an Arduino Micro, a tiny OLED 128×64 display using the SSD1306 controller and I2C interface, and a precision DS3231-based real-time clock module with rechargeable battery backup. It features […]
Tri-State Logic
Posted on: 19 Jun 2016
Introduction So far we have sent one of two values to any Arduino output pin, either HIGH or LOW. This project shows how we can exploit a third state of the Arduino pins to reduce the number of pins needed to control LEDs. In the project, we’ll control 2 LEDs using only one Arduino pin. […]
