AD9850 Signal Generator PIC16F
This is a modified version of basic wave generator design with AD9850 and Microchip PIC16F microcontroller. A relatively simple assembly code available for download at the bottom of the page. Instead of using a rotary encoder as many other similar available ...
Arduino PWM Fan Controller
This implementation of Arduino based PWM Fan Controller is simple circuit that allows controlling fan speed by varying the duty cycle of the output signal. For PIC16F684 version click here. I’ve tested with Deepcool 120mm fan and it works OK, ...
Digital Clock with LCD Shield Board for Arduino
Arduino clock can be implemented by using LCD Shield Board for Arduino. This shield can simplify the prototyping process of many Arduino based circuits. It incorporates a 16x2 display and a basic 6 buttons keypad thus removing the need for ...
PCF8574 I2C 8-bit I/O expander
In this post we’ll review a simple interface for PCF8574 I2C 8-bit IO expander IC and PIC microcontroller. For similar Arduino based implementation click this link. The format of present post is similar to 2 recently published tutorials about I2C ...
2 Channel PC Fan Controller
Following recently published article about building a PWM Fan Controller here is another simple controller design. This time it’s a 2 Channel PC Fan Controller for standard 12V Fans. It uses software implementation of PWM but instead of directly driving PWM ...
Arduino Ohm Meter
Arduino Ohm Meter is one of the simplest circuits that can be built with minimal number of required components. As can be seen from design schematic a standard 2x16 LCD display and 3 resistors are all you need to complete ...
Arduino Digital Level MPU-6050
In this post a 1 axis basic digital level design will be presented. This circuit is based on Arduino UNO board and MPU6050 accelerometer and gyroscope chip. The communication is done using I2C interface. MPU6050 module address can vary depending ...
Arduino LCD Bargraph Voltmeter
Arduino based LCD Bargraph Voltmeter can be easily assembled with Arduino Mega 2560/Arduino Uno or compatible boards. Arduino LED battery level indicator is here. Similar design based on Raspberry Pi platform is available at this link. This design is basically ...
7-Segment Display Counter with Arduino
Recently I’ve published a basic Binary to Hexadecimal converter design based on Atmega 2560 chip. The same set up can be used for building a simple UP/Down counter with Arduino Mega compatible board. 7-Segment display and its I/O stayed the same ...
Simple Digital Voltmeter
Simple digital voltmeter can be built by using PIC microcontroller and a few discrete components. PIC16F877A 10 bit ADC module was used for this purpose, we’ll work only with 8 upper bits to translate input voltage to digital form and ...
