Banguino – 8-bit Processing Module
Posted on: 14 Mar 2016
Banguino brings the most popular hobby and DIY development platform in the world into a single chip DTX module and offers full backwards compatibility with the most used worldwide Arduino board – the model ‘Uno’. Bonus features include an on-board power supply to generate +5V and +3.3V to the user’s external circuit, a microSD connector […]
Analog to Digital Conversion in ARDUINO
Posted on: 14 Mar 2016
Analog to digital conversion module of ARDUINO UNO has 6 input ports. The number of the port varies with your ARDUINO model but the coding remains the same. The analog reading in the analog inputs are converted into corresponding 10bit(0-1023). ARDUINO developers have made such an option that you can print anything and see it on the Serial monitor. […]
Building a simple VGA-adapter for 8-bit self made computer
Posted on: 13 Mar 2016
How to build your own VGA-adapter My lifetime project: building an 8-bit computer using Z80 CPU. This week I had a bad flu and could not do anything useful so I decided to dig up my old plans for this project. I first re-designed many things, like power, CPU-board, IO-board and so on (my old […]
How to Convert an Arduino into an AVR Flash Programmer
Posted on: 13 Mar 2016
In case you don’t have an AVR programmer but you do have an arduino, the arduino can be converted into an AVR flash programmer, meaning it can program bare AVR microcontroller chips. Say if you have an AVR chip and you want to program the chip, so that the program that you’ve written and compiled […]
How to Build an Infrared Distance Sensor Circuit
Posted on: 12 Mar 2016
An infrared (IR) distance sensor is a sensor that can measure distance from a solid or physical object. An infrared distance sensor does this through light waves. It sends out infrared light and waits to receive it back at the receiver end. If it receives back the infrared light, this means that the light waves […]
Voice Echo Module With Build-In Amplifier
Posted on: 11 Mar 2016
This project is a Voice echo module with build-in amplifier and on-board mic. A project has been designed around Holteks Ht8970 voice echo IC. Project can be used in various audio systems karaoke, toys, animatronics, show, display, exhibitions, and sound equipment’s. The HT8970 is an echo/surround effect processor. It is designed for various audio […]
How to Build an HC-SR04 Distance Sensor Circuit
Posted on: 11 Mar 2016
An ultrasonic distance sensor is a sensor that can measure distance from a solid or physical object. An ultrasonic range finder does this through sound waves. It sends out high-frequency sound waves and then waits to listen back for these sound waves. If it has heard back these sound waves, then this means the sound […]
New power inverter could make EVs more powerful and efficient
Posted on: 10 Mar 2016
A new power inverter developed at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) marries advances in 3D printing and wide-band semiconductor technology to deliver significantly improved performance in a smaller, lighter package. With further development, it could go a long way toward helping build electric cars that are more powerful and energy-efficient. Power inverters are an […]
How to Build a Servo Motor Circuit (with Arduino)
Posted on: 10 Mar 2016
In this project, we will go over how to build a servo motor circuit using an arduino. This is a circuit which can control and rotate a servo motor to rotate a certain amount of degrees. Specifically, in our circuit, we will make it so that the servo motor rotates 180 degrees and then stops […]
WinHeist – An Electronic Components Organizer for Every Hobbyist
Posted on: 09 Mar 2016
WinHeist is an electronics component organizer that was developed by a programmer with an electronic habit. It has developed over the years from a personal application used by the author into the full blown application that it is today. To get a look at WinHeist and get an idea of what it is and what […]
