RFID Security Access Using Arduino
In this post I’ll show you how to build a RFID reader for security access based on Arduino MEGA board. The code I've used is a modified version of a design that was published at Arduino project hub. I added ...
INA219 current sensor with Arduino
Measuring current is a relatively simple task that can be done by connecting a shunt resistor in series with the load and measuring the voltage on this resistor. The voltage is proportional to a load current according to Ohm’s law ...
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 ...
RGB LED Bar Graph
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 ...
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 ...
Power Supply 2.5 – 12 V
Power Supply is probably the most common electronics project you can build.This is a basic design for digital power supply. It was built around 3 main components. Digital potentiometer – MCP4251-502E/P, Low Dropout Voltage Regulator – MIC29152 and PIC16F877A.The idea ...
8×8 LED Matrix chaser Arduino
8x8 LED Matrix chaser based on Arduino MEGA compatible board will be presented in this post. It uses a LED dot matrix display module with two 74HC595 shift register chips connected in serial to control the LED output. Similar design ...
Simple IR Proximity Sensor
This post is about building a Simple IR Proximity Sensor based on PIC16F877a micro controller. Usually these simple circuits are built using discrete components and include an OP AMP for comparing the photo diode voltage to a preset value. Current ...
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 ...
