When working with multiple 7-Segment displays a multiplexing scheme is required in order to simplify the design and save Raspberry Pi I/O pins. Such implementations shown in this design. As can be seen from a schematic diagram 2 7-Segment displays ...

Here is another fan controller design based on PIC microcontroller, this time it's temperature controlled and can be used to monitor Hard Drive temperature and adjust the fan speed accordingly or as a case fan controller. This post following recently ...

In this post I'll show a simple running LED circuit. Currently only 2 patterns are available but additional effects can be easily added by slightly modifying the code. This design uses only 16 LED's however PIC16F877 has 5 I/O ports ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Using HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Sensor with Raspberry Pi is a relatively easy task. HC-SR04 is a very popular module that can provide the distance to the object by sending ultrasonic bursts at 40kHz and measuring the time it takes for the ...

Current LED Bar Graph design for Arduino UNO platform uses 16 independently controlled RGB LED’s with integrated WS2812 chip. Similar project is available at this link. In general the voltage is divided into equal intervals equal to the number of ...

Arduino 4 Digit LED 7-Segment Countdown Timer based on Arduino MEGA will be shown in this post.  For LCD version of this design follow this link. Similar project that uses PIC16F876 MCU can be found at this link. Raspberry Pi ...
