Build a transistor circuit board for controlling Air Conditioner remote control with Arduino

I was supporting a group of student on their graduation project. One of the difficulties they faced was on controlling an A/C unit with Arduino microcontroller. The first experiment we tried to work it out was by record the A/C remote control beam signal for each needed button by using the IRrecvDump code with IRremote

Physical Computing and DC Motor Control

Managing a DC motor through an Arduino is a straightforward task. Beyond employing a basic electric switch, there are diverse approaches to engage with a motor. Moreover, the conventional electromechanical relay can be readily substituted with a carefully chosen transistor, enabling software-based speed control. This chapter will investigate multiple strategies for DC motor control, encompassing

Smart Washroom: Experience Hands-Free Lighting with IR Sensors

This Arduino Uno and IR sensor-based system automatically controls the lighting in a bathroom connected to AC mains power. The IR sensors detect when a person enters or exits the room. Upon detection of entry, the light bulb or tube light is immediately switched on. When the sensors no longer detect a presence, the lighting

Rohm claims to have smallest transistor package

Rohm claims to have smallest transistor package

ROHM Semiconductor Ultra Compact MOSFETs & Bipolar Transistors have the smallest transistor package on the market which is optimized for thin, compact portable devices. The VML0806 case type measures just 0.8mm×0.6mm, with a height of only 0.36mm. As portable devices, such as smartphones and digital cameras get smaller and more sophisticated, thinner, more compact components
