Arduino Leonardo Introduction: Arduino Leonardo is a microcontroller board that uses ATmega32u4 (datasheet) as the main chip. Most of these include twenty digital I/O pins out of which seven can be used as PWM outputs and twelve can be used as analog inputs, sixteen mega Hertz crystal oscillators, micro USB connection, power jack interfaces, ICSP

This is a beginners project for the Arduino. I am using the Arduino Uno but should work with little or no modification on other arduino models. Setting up the hardware is very easy. This project is more of a training tool for learning how to program a timer list while listening for a button press. Parts

A simple temperature sensor using one LM35 Precision Temperature Sensor , Humidity Sensor and Arduino, so you can hookup on your future projects. The circuit will send serial information about the temperature and humidity so you can use on your computer. I have taken data from my compost. The project is related to an existing
Arduino + Temperature + Humidity Continue Reading
Hi, all! Today I’ m trying to explain you my last project: “The morse code generator by a PS\2 keyboard” I’ ve used an PS/2 keyboard to send input to my Arduino board (like described in here) and transform it in morse code that activate a speaker and a relay. Components: – PS\2 keyboard –
The morse code generator by a PS\2 keyboard using Arduino Continue Reading
This instructable is a quick write-up of my experience creating a multifunctional moodlight. Some basic knowledge of electronic circuits is expected. The project has not yet finished, some adding functionality and tweaking has to be done but it is already functional. If you guys are enthousiast about this instructable I will update it. At the

Interfacing Electronic Circuits to Arduino In this tutorial, I show how to link an Arduino to an ARINC 429 transceiver as an illustration of interfacing an Arduino with circuits, so you can use these methods for your projects. The ARINC 429 bus is commonly utilized for computer to computer communications on aircraft. The ARINC 429

How to use an Arduino to read the signal from a set of digital callipers and send the reading over USB. Why? This might be useful for accurate position sensing in home made / hacked computer aided manufacture systems. Adds USB functionality to your callipers. A great reference on reading digital callipers can be found

UPDATE: Please see Addendum 2 at the end of this article for an Excel automatic logging implementation. There are several good articles on Instructables about building your own Arduino. Depending on your horde of electrical parts, you may be able to build an Arduino clone for as little as $3. I recently built two: one
