This instructable shows how to build a shield to connect devices that send MIDI signals (e.g. a masterkeyboard) to an Arduino. The basic schematic is derived from: http://www.arduino.cc/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1187962258/ Step 1: The schematic Basically the schematic is just an optocoupler with some resistors to decouple the MIDI device from the Arduino. Note that the DIN connector …
Morse code was the breakthrough that made possible long-distance communication in the era of the telegraph. The code represents alphanumeric characters by short and long intervals of signal — those familiar dots and dashes. For many years passing a Morse code test was a prerequisite of getting a Ham license, but nowadays most radio amateurs …
This instructable will show you show to build an Arduino shield which can be used to control 3 servos and 1 stepper motor using 4 potentiometers. You will need: access to a laser printer/cnc router/etching chemicals 7 x 3 pin 3.5mm terminal blocks 2 x 2 pin 3.5mm terminal blocks 2 x 8 pin stackable …
In the two previous projects, the LED turns on and off automatically. Now, you will control the LED manually using a pushbutton. Step 1: What You Will Need The parts you will need are all included in this Maker kit. SwiftIO board Shield Button module 4-pin cable Step 2: Button The button, or pushbutton, is always …

Waveform generators (also called function generators) are useful for testing and debugging circuits. They can be used to test the frequency response of electronic components like op amps and sensors or to characterize and troubleshoot audio effects boxes and pedals. This waveform generator shield is powered by an Arduino. It outputs four waveforms: sine, triangle, …
This Instructable will show you how to build your own FM radio receiver shield to be used with an Arduino board. The radio chip we are going to be using is the AR1010 on a breakoutboard found at Sparkfun or Electrokit and there will be code to get you up and running provided later on. We are going …
In this Instructable, we’re going to be making a Tic Tac Toe or Noughts and Crosses shield for an Arduino that allows you to play against another person or an AI player running on the Arduino. The game board is made up of a 3×3 grid of RGB LEDs that light up green or blue …

This Arduino sketch exercises the standard hardware of the CKS-1-Shield board. It provides a console interface for reading inputs and triggering outputs, and a set of asynchronous state machines for generating test motions. Console Interface static void parse_user_input(int argc, char *argv[]) Process an input message tokenized from a line of console input. New commands may be defined by …
In this tutorial we make an LCD shield for using 20 character by four row LCD modules with Arduino Uno. Updated 18/03/2013 In this article you can follow the process of making another LCD shield for the Arduino Uno or compatible boards. In the past (which explains the word another in this title) I made a 16 x 2 …
If you are looking for a small and low powered Arduino board the Attiny is a really good option, its surprisingly featureful for it’s size. It has 5 GPIO pins, 3 of which are Analog pins and 2 which have PWM output. It is also really flexible to the voltage that it runs off (2.7V …
