Fire Alarm System using AVR Microcontroller
Posted on: 01 Apr 2017
In this project, we are going to make a Fire Alert System using ATMEGA8 microcontroller and fire sensor. Fire sensor can be of any type, however we are using IR (Infrared) based Fire Sensor. Although IR based Fire Sensors have some disadvantages mostly of inaccuracy, it is the cheapest and easiest way to detect fire. IR […]
Alarm Clock using ATmega32 Microcontroller
Posted on: 31 Mar 2017
In this project we are going to design a simple Alarm clock using ATMEGA32 timers. ATmega32A microcontroller has a 16 bit timer, and we will be using that timer to count the seconds and develop a digital clock. All the digital clocks have a crystal inside of them which is the heart of clock. This crystal not […]
Introduction to Octocoupler and Interfacing with ATmega8
Posted on: 30 Mar 2017
In this tutorial we are going to interface an Optocoupler with ATMEGA8 microcontroller. Octocouplers are fascinating devices used to isolate the electronic and electrical circuits. This simple device isolates the sensitive electronics from robust electronics like motors, yet keeping the load in control over the source. Say we want to control the speed of an AC motor […]
How to establish UART communication between ATmega8 and Arduino Uno?
Posted on: 29 Mar 2017
Here we are going to establish a communication between an ATmega8 microcontroller and Arduino Uno. The communication established here is UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) type. It’s serial communication. By this serial communication data can be shared between two controllers, which is a required in various embedded system applications. In embedded systems we must have basic knowledge about […]
8×8 LED Matrix Interfacing with AVR Microcontroller
Posted on: 28 Mar 2017
In this session we are going to design an 8×8 LED display with 8×8 LED matrix and ATmega8 microcontroller, which can show alphabets or names. A 8×8 LED matrix contains 64 LED (Light Emitting Diodes) which are arranged in the form of a matrix, hence the name LED matrix. These matrixes can be made by circuiting 64 […]
Make Your Own Homemade Arduino Board with ATmega328 Chip
Posted on: 27 Mar 2017
Arduino is an open-source development platform for engineers and hobbyists to develop electronics projects in an easy way. It consists of both a physical programmable development board (based on AVR series of microcontrollers) and a piece of software or IDE which runs on your computer and used to write and upload the code to the microcontroller board. Arduino uses a boot loader. […]
Scrolling Text Display on 8×8 LED Matrix using AVR Microcontroller
Posted on: 26 Mar 2017
In this tutorial we are going to design an 8×8 LED Matrix Scrolling Display using ATMEGA32, which will show scrolling alphabets. 8×8 LED Matrix contains 64 LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) which are arranged in the form of a matrix, hence the name is LED matrix. We are going to make this Matrix by soldering 64 LEDs on […]
Atmega 32u4 Based USB Data Logger (Part 23/25)
Posted on: 25 Mar 2017
In this project, a device will be designed that will read analog data from any analog sensor and will send the digitized form of that data to a personal computer on USB interface. On PC, a desktop application will store the data in an excel spreadsheet therefore performing the data logging. For this, the device […]
Controlling a BLDC Motor with an ESC
Posted on: 24 Mar 2017
REQUIREMENTS: 1. Microcontroller (AtMega 16) 2. A Brushless DC motor (BLDC) 3. An Electronic Speed Controller (ESC) 4. Power source to drive the motor (LiPo battery) DESCRIPTION: Brushless motors have much more satisfying results as compared to brushed motors. The basic difference between them is that in a brushless motor, the rotor itself contains the […]
