In May 2013, I learned about Ward Cunningham’s Txtzyme language – a very simple serial command interpreter which allowed basic control of microcontroller function using a serial interface. I wrote about it here: Txtzyme – A minimal interpretive language and thoughts on simple extensions Tytzyme was about as easy as a “language” could get, it […]

A frequency generator is a very handy device in electronic design, development, testing and trouble shooting. It is such a kind of device which can generate the required frequencies which can be then applied directly to the target device for testing it. There are frequency generators which can generate the required waveform like sine wave,

I’ve built a number of projects that have interfaced the output of the Simple Bat Detector with a microprocessor. The most recent was the BatLogger II. But I hadn’t come up with an easy way for others to experiment with this idea … until now. My friend, Frank, in Germany, had wanted to make a

Dimmer With MOSFET This circuit shows that dimmers intended for use at mains voltage do not always have to contain a triac. Here, a MOSFET (BUZ41A, 500 V/4.5A) in a diode bridge is used to control the voltage across an incandescent bulb with pulse-width modulation (PWM). The power supply voltage for driving the gate is

Hi Everyone! I’ve had a few people ask about creating a simple clap-on/clap-off circuit using Arduino. Well those who are interested are now in luck. The software in this instructable is simple and well commented. The schematic is simple, and the components are easy and inexpensive to acquire! All you’ll need are 6x components, and

We are often asked on discussion boards, about conflicts between IRremote or IRLib and other Arduino Libraries. In this post, we present a sketch for ‘Simple Infrared PWM on Arduino’. This is the first part in a 3 part series of posts. Part 1 shows how to generate the simple Infrared carrier frequency on Arduino,
