For a long time I had a layout for this circuit, but could never build it, because the layout was to small to be made by tonertransfer. So it was the first layout I made with my new exposure unit. It’s quite small, so it fits under the LEDMatrix itself. Therefore only SMD parts are […]

I am presenting one application with the Nokia 3310 LCD: Designing a thermometer using DS1621 temperature sensor IC. DS1621 is 8-pin sensor from Maxim, with temp range of -55 to +125 degree C, which can be interfaced with microcontroller over two-wire serial i2c bus. It has operating voltage range from 2.7 to 5.5v. I’m operating

Due to university and work it has been a while since the last post. But I just completed a little project that’s worth posting. Several old 27C256 EPROMS were lying around unused. So I thought about a purpose for them. As I also had some 8×8 LED matrices, a little animated display came to mind.

Another update on the CNC. The interfaceboards are etched, soldered and tested. IO / Control Boards Step- and directionsignals are generated by an ATmega32 which is controlled over RS232. This is only for testing purpose. In the final version a PC will control the movement. For more Detail: CNC Update 2 Using atmega32 microcontroller

And now for something completely different: A little robotics project for the weekend. The described robot can be build entirely from model making supplies and materials from the hardware store. Also only very few tools are needed. A metal saw, a drill press, a vice and optionally a tap will suffice. And here you can

Here is a very simple project of controlling a small DC-motor (taken from an old personal cassette player) with ATmega8. The ATmega8 is having three PWM channels, out of which two are used here. PWM waveforms are fed to MOSFET (RFD3055) H-bridge. Here, direction is controlled using a two-position toggle switch and speed of the

16×2 LCDs are most commonly used display units in microcontroller based projects. I got much information about LCD, LCD commands, LCD initialization etc from the below link and I hope, it will be very much helpful for beginners. For more Detail: 4 bit interfacing of a 16X2 LCD display to PIC16F877A, Atmega16/32 & MSP430

Introduction: (don’t skip to read the note below) I recently purchased few AVR microcontrollers. I don’t know much about AVR since I am using it for first time. Any way, I have some experience on working with PIC and MSP430. To program AVR using USB, I came to know that USBASP is the best and

Here is a project for beginners to interface a 16-key (4×4) keypad with ATmega32 using 8-pins i.e. one port of the microcontroller. This is useful particularly where we need more keys but don’t want to spend more uC pins for interfacing. The 4×4 keypad is a standard one available in the market. I’ve used here
