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 ...
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 ...
Arduino 4-Digit 7-Segment LED Voltmeter MAX7219
Here is another version of Arduino based voltmeter. This time it uses 4-digit 7-Segment LED display and MAX7219 Display Driver. For similar design with 2x16 LCD display click this link. Also you can look at PIC16F876 implementation in my previous ...
7-Segment LED Display PCF8574 I2C Arduino
Adding a serial data transfer capability to a 7-Segment LED Display can be done by using PCF8574 I/O Port expander with I2C interface. Arduino UNO controls the PCF8574 by sending display codes for each segment. Similar circuit based on PIC16F876 ...
Arduino with DS3231 Real Time Clock
In this post I’ll show you how to interface a RTC module DS3231 Real Time Clock with Arduino. This particular module uses I2C protocol to transfer current time to a micro controller. DS3231 library and header files should be installed ...
7-Segment Display with SPI PIC16F876A
For this project two PIC16F877 MCU's were used, see project schematics below. Slave PIC runs LEDs decoding and multiplexing code on data received from Master. 7-Segment inputs connected to PORTC,B and common digits anodes to PORTB,A via 2N3906 collectors for ...
