Arduino based 3 Digit Timer with LED Display module is a relatively simple design. Recently I’ve published a number of similar projects that essentially perform the same task. You set up an initial value via some kind of user interface ...

Recently I was asked to build an aquarium lighting controller prototype to provide variable brightness during its operation and ability to program  ON/OFF times. 25 blue and white diffused 10mm LED were used to illuminate the aquarium. The main requirement from ...

Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) is very common technique for controlling cooling fan speed in Desktop PC. In this project PIC16F877A based Pulse Width Modulation  controller was built and tested with 2 fans. 80 mm Coolink SWiF2-80P PWM Fan and Arctic Cooling ...

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 ...

Here is a Basic PIC Frequency Counter design. For Arduino version click here. It doesn't not attempt to compete with some advance designs and has a very limited frequency range, however it can be used as a starting point to ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
