If you have ever wanted to control high voltages/currents with an Arduino, setup up a complicated light timer, or even have Siri turn on a Lamp. Then this is an instructable for you! In this instructable in a few simple steps we will build a self-powered smart relay (Arduino style) power box. This box will allow

This project is a contribution to the first belgian Arduino Jam (2012). First of all we would like to thank the organisation and especially the main sponsor, Capgemini, which made all of this possible. Bleeber is a physical way of interacting with data trough oobleck. In Belgium it’s commonly known that the train schedule has its

Small Kit with Big Functionality By Ryan Winters Product Manager There are many reasons to build your own Arduino circuit on a breadboard or PCB. It takes less space, projects don’t always require every pin to be used on the I/O headers, or maybe you won’t be using a shield but you still want Arduino
How to Build an Arduino Circuit on a Breadboard Continue Reading
Ok, you’ve completed your prototype using an Arduino Uno board, perhaps using a shield or a breadboard for any additional components, but now you want to finalise your design and construct it using your own pcb. Well, that is fairly straightforward, as we have made a complete kit of essential parts available for the ATMega328

how you can take a computer u hv old (power supply unit) and turn it into a power supply that will power your Arduino and give you all the amperage you need as well as your standard 3.3 volts, 5 volts, and 12 volts for any accessories/electronics used on your breadboard And arduino power ,led

Allllllllllright dudes and dudets. Here is whats up, we’re going to make attiny and arduino bestest of friends. If you have ever worked with capacitive switches you know how much it makes you want to smash your face into a wall…Now imagine you have no way to monitor output, well that is what I was

Nixie tubes are really cool looking and are becoming quite popular for their ‘retro’ look. Although there are a number of tutorials out there on using nixie tubes and some nice pre-packaged units (see these nice ones from ogi lumenand ArduiNIX) I hadn’t seen a simple tutorial on running them using a shift register like the SN74HC595.

This Instructable will demonstrate the building of a bare bones (and really inexpensive… less than $5) Arduino compatible module that can be put together on a small piece of stripboard and can be used either on a breadboard or independently. The following links / similar projects were used as inspiration: * http://www.instructables.com/id/Small-form-factor-DIY-Arduino-on-stripboard/ * http://tinkerprojects.blogspot.com/2012/06/minimal-arduino-on-small-stripboard.html * http://shop.moderndevice.com/products/rbbb-kit * http://txapuzas.blogspot.com/2010/07/paperduino-stripboard.html The

Breadboards are very handy, but sometimes I just want to connect one IC or some LEDs and resistors to the controller. My simple solution was to canibalize a cheap Breadboard to get two expandable PrototypingShields with some additional features. What I used: Breadboard (~3$) 2 Pieces of Veroboard (<1$) 28 PinHeader (<1$) 28 femaleConnectors (<1$)
