LM35 Temperature Sensor with Raspberry Pi
Using LM35 temperature sensor with Raspberry Pi is a relatively simple task once you have a way to read and convert analog signals. Fortunately in my previous project I’ve shown how to build a basic Raspberry Pi voltmeter with ADS1015 ...
Basic Arduino Frequency Counter
Basic frequency counter capable of measuring 0-5V square wave up to 100kHz can be built using just 2 components: Arduino MEGA board and 2x16 LCD display. For PIC16F876 version click here. Frequency counter code is also very simple. It uses ...
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 ...
Arduino with 74HC595 and 7-Segment
74HC595 is a discrete shift register IC that can be easily integrated with Arduino platform. Usually shift registers are used to convert a serial data to a parallel output. Additional shift registers can be connected in series extending the number ...
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 ...
Raspberry Pi Digital Clock with 16×2 LCD
Raspberry Pi based Digital Clock with 16×2 LCD display is a relatively simple project.It requires only a small set of components and can be completed in less than an hour. Previously I’ve published similar designs based on other popular platforms ...
LCD Alarm Clock
Due to popular demand I've modified digital clock design to work with LCD display instead of 7-Segment LED as described in this post. For Arduino version click here. All the capabilities of LED version have been maintained in current project. 1 ...
Arduino Ultrasonic Sensor HC-SR04
This post is about building a distance meter using HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Sensor and Arduino MEGA board. For PIC16F877 version click here. Raspberry Pi variant is also available at this link. HC-SR04 module can measure distances ranging from 2cm – 400 ...
Digital Alarm Clock
Digital Alarm Clock design based on PIC16F876A will be demonstrated in this post. Various modules from earlier project were implemented in current design hardware and source code. For example it uses the same 7-Segment Display and multiplexing routing as in ...
LCD Countdown Timer Arduino
This post is about building a 3-digit countdown timer based on Arduino MEGA. Up/Down counter also available at this link. The timer will wait for 3-digit number to be entered via 4x3 keypad and then start counting down to zero ...
