Kinetic Watch Winder
In this post I’ll show how to build a basic kinetic watch winder using PIC microcontroller and stepper motor. Kinetic watches do not require changing the battery as frequently as in quartz watch however despite their many advantages they have ...
Basic counter with RGB LED 2812 Pixel Matrix Shield
In this post I’ll show how to interface a Keyestudio 40 RGB LED 2812 Pixel Matrix Shield with Arduino UNO compatible board. Each LED on this shield has an integrated chip WS2812 and can be individually controlled. Attached Arduino code ...
I2C Serial LCD Interface Module Arduino
In this post I’m going to show you how to use a Serial I2C Interface Module to control 2x16 LCD display with Arduino. For similar design using PIC16F876 click this link. Instead of using 8 or 4 bit parallel connection ...
Humidity and Temperature Sensor DHT11 with Arduino
Interfacing Humidity and Temperature Sensor DHT11 with Arduino platform is the topic of this post. I’ve published a number of designs with various temperature sensor, both digital and analog. Here you can see how to use LM75A digital sensor with ...
Response Time Meter
If you ever thought how fast you can react to external stimulus here is the circuit that can measure your response time. It measures the time it takes for you to press the push button in response to turning the ...
Thermocouple Amplifier MAX31855 with Arduino
Interfacing a Thermocouple with Arduino platform can be easily done by integrating a MAX31855 to your project. This IC is a Cold-Junction Compensated Analog to Digital Converter amplifier especially design for use with a Thermocouple. The converter provides 14-Bit of ...
Waveform Generator using Raspberry Pi
