Small Arduino DMX controller

Sensor – Transducer – Detector Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

In this post we show you how to make a small and useful Arduino DMX512 controller, which can use by example to handle a smoke machine with DMX, or as test equipment, etc… We can use Arduino Mega, Arduino UNO, and other with small changes. Only a handful of inexpensive components are used. In the

Arduino Project 6: Web-controlled music player

Other Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

Our NetPlay project is built on a standard breadboard. In our previous Arduino masterclass we briefly introduced the Ethernet Shield an Arduino expansion board that adds Ethernet connectivity plus microSD card storage. We used that storage as the basis of a simple one-button digital audio player. It was functional but limited to 8-bit mono WAV

Arduino Garage Controller

Interfacing(USB – RS232 – I2c -ISP) Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

Although there are many garage door projects on Instructable using Arduinos, I needed/wanted something different. Last year, we had a warm summer and when I would come home after work, I would leave the garage door open about 1 foot so it could cool off. The trouble was that several nights I left the garage

Arduino Programming For Beginners: The Traffic Light Controller

LED Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

Last week, we learnt about the basic structure of an Arduino program and took a closer look at the ‘blink’ example. Hopefully you took the opportunity to experiment with code, adjusting the timings. This time, we’ll be writing something from scratch. In fact, let’s make a traffic light. Apart from the basic Arduino, you’ll need:

6 Volt 5 Watt solar charge controller

Electronics News Updates / By Ibrar Ayyub

Introduction The project use a custom printed circuit board for the charge controller power management electronics, and requires an external Arduino pro mini to run the control firmware. The power management board design has the following features: PV input transient and reverse polarity protection Sensing for PV input voltage, converter output current, load current, and

Universal soldering controller

Electronics News Updates / By Ibrar Ayyub

The intention was to build the most universal soldering controller I can think of. It can drive any low voltage (upto 24V) iron with thermocouple or resistive sensor, in series with the heater, or separate. Here is a short list of features: – power: 9-28V, AC or DC – 2 separate heater control channels –

Yet Another Arduino 110v Power Controller

Projects, Solar energy projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

This Instructable shows you how to build a four-gang outlet box in which each outlet is controlled via an Arduino (or any other TTL level signals). It differs from the other relay boxes in that it uses no circuit boards and has very few parts (one chip and 4 relays). Step 1: Assemble Materials/Review Plan Tools
