This is a down and dirty prototyping shield that will work for Arduino Mega’s and there pin compatible clones. This is the first time i have made this board, but i have other projects i think this would be handy for. Limitations: I tend to build projects for megs that require multiple serial ports and […]
How to choose between ordering boards and low-risk home prototyping, with fabrication-file checks, inspection steps and authorized etchant waste handling.
One day while exploring the bric-a-brac at the markets, I stumbled across an old, Bakelite slave dial from the 1950’s. Slave Dials are clock movements without the actual time keeping circuit. All they contain is the mechanism to drive the hour and minute hands, which can be advanced by an electric pulse. This pulse is […]
In this project we make electronic dice. Updated 18/03/2013 In this article you can learn how to make an electronic die (die is the singular of dice), using an ATmega328 with Arduino bootloader and a few inexpensive components. The reason for doing this is to introduce another object that you can build, learn from and be proud […]
In this instructable, I will show you how to make a simple toy that combination of the LEDs flash and Theremin. We’re gonna using some basic electronics built on top of an Arduino. The basic idea of 7 Segment LED Display was from Enjoying Electronics. The original Enjoying Electronics article is here, you can get […]
I love Ardunio. I love the things that people make with them and I love to make my own. Last August I published an Instructable on how to make your own postage stamp sized Arduino compatible. This Instructable will show you how to to make a rugged, versatile Ardunio compatible with basic components on board. It […]
If you’ve ever wanted to bring a piece of paper to life, now is your chance. This instructable will take you through all the necessary steps to create an amazing interactive flyer or artwork. This event flyer is no ordinary piece of print. It is printed using Bare Conductive ink. This means that when it is brought […]
Welcome to my FIRST instructable, i will show you how to connect a 16×2 lcd display to an arduino, follow these simple step by step instructions and you will have it done in no time 🙂 Tools Needed : Soldering Iron Wire Strippers Pliers Soldering Iron Flux ( Liquid Or Solid ) Soldering Iron […]
Last winter I experienced some problems with my car battery. I knew that it was about time to replace it so off I went to buy a new one. This fact reminded me of an old article about a car battery/charging system diagnostics kit I had seen in one of those 1980s electronics magazines. That […]
Well I managed to kill my Arduino. It no longer accepted uploads with the classic out of sync error. After asking on the Arduino forum I was told I would need a high voltage programmer to rectify, so I decided just to buy a new chip. I was a bit scared about doing this but […]
