Arduino UNO project, Power Quality Meter, someone would call it’s PQ Monitor or PQ Analyzer. I had already published one blog devoted RMS voltage measurements on full band 20 – 20 000 Hz audio signals. ( Following my own style, I’d refer to already published materials whenever it’s possible ). This time measurements performed on […]
Power Quality Meter ( PQ Monitor) using Arduino Continue Reading
Being electronics engineers, we consistently rely on meters and instruments to gauge and study the functionality of a circuit. From basic multimeters to advanced power quality analyzers or DSOs, each device serves specific purposes. Many of these gauges are easily accessible and can be bought depending on the measurements needed and their precision. However, there
Arduino Wattmeter: Measure Voltage, Current and Power Consumption Continue Reading
Long battery-life and Low power consumption are usually top on the list of requirements for most hardware devices these days, as the weariness of having to constantly charge a device continues to have significant effect on customers’ choice. Asides from consumer applications, another reason fueling this demand is the growth in the deployment of IoT
SOLAR INTEGRATED ULP FEATHER NEEDS NO BATTERIES Continue Reading
In a previous tutorial we have seen how to run two stepper motors synchronously from a given start position to a defined destination using an Arduino and a very simple “user interface”. That user interface was restricted to some microswitches and LEDs, both installed on a breadboard. As promised, this new instructable shows how to add a
When you see something made from metal that seems like it would be impossible to manufacture, chances are good it was made with some variety of electrical discharge machining. EDM is the method of choice for hard-to-machine metals, high aspect ratio hole drilling, and precise surface finishes that let mating parts slip together with almost
This Power Timer is based on the timer presented at: https://www.instructables.com/id/Timer-With-Arduin… A power supply module and an SSR (solid state relay) were attached to it. Power loads of up to 1KW can be operated and with minimal changes the load power can be increased. The choice of timer duration or program number is set from

This ECG (Electrocardiogram) unit has an integrated display. The display can show individual heart beats in a large format, the train of heart beats in a small format and a Poincaré plot. It is battery powered and can be worn round your neck on a lanyard. It is built from an AD8232 module (£7 with leads), an
Multimeters are suitable for many purposes. But usually, they only measure one value at a time. If we deal with power measurements, we need two multimeters, one for voltage and the second for Ampere. And if we want to measure efficiency, we need four multimeters. Here we will build small and inexpensive meters to do
For this project, I wanted to create a winch that would be functional for use in a show in a theatre. Often, we have to fly in and out small objects, like chandeliers. This unit would be ideal for raising and lowering small objects in spaces that did not have a fly system, or for
I think these RGB LED Matrix displays are one of best displays you can get for your Arduino projects, they are incredibly bright and vivid and are actually pretty easy to use too! They can be used for displaying text, images or a combination of both Check out some of the examples of what can
