Today I will present an easy to build Multi channel IR Remote control system. It can control heavy loads (Up to AC 220V 6 Amps or smaller) with a touch of remote control. A total of 5 devices can be controlled from a distance of up to 20 feet. We will be using a standard […]

The tutorial is well planned and executed. I really liked the RGB LED and Sound show given at the end. I will try it and tell how it works. Till then you can read the rest of the article here. Working with Atmel AVR Microcontroller Basic Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Peripheral The article also explain […]

ADC (Analog to digital converter) is a commonly used peripheral. We use it everyday to interface with several analog sensors. Many times a nice visualization of ADC data is required during learning about new sensors. For example you just bought a analog sound sensor, and try to do some fast experiments that how it performs. […]

This reader-friendly guide shows you how to take charge of the newest, most versatile microcontrollers around, Atmel’s AVR RISC chip family. Inside, Electronics World writer and astronomy instrumentation developer Dhananjay V. Contents Introduction 1 Microcontrollers 11 The AVR RISC Microcontroller Architecture 21 The AVR Instruction Set 59 AVR Hardware Design Issues 81 Hardware and Software […]

In this tutorial we will discuss a simple PC controlled robot. The Robot PC link will be a RS232 serial line. The robot will have only five commands. Move forward (RS232 char ‘F’ or ‘f’) Move backward (RS232 char ‘B’ or ‘b’) Turn Left (RS232 char ‘L’ or ‘l’) Turn Right (RS232 char ‘R’ or […]

This book includes 15 programming and constructional projects, and covers the range of AVR chips currently available, including the recent Tiny AVR. No prior experience with microcontrollers is assumed. John Morton is author of the popular PIC: Your Personal Introductory Course, also published by Newnes. Contents Chapter 1 Introduction 1 Chapter 2 Basic Operations with […]

Do you want a low cost way to learn C programming for microcontrollers? This book shows you how to use Atmel’s $19.99 AVR Butterfly board and the FREE WinAVR C compiler to make a very inexpensive system for using C to develop microcontroller projects. Students will find the thorough coverage of C explained in the […]

An interesting project that can be done using Microcontroller is a LED message scroll er. It teaches you a quite lot of things. So I decided to make one. I made the hardware design modular and cascadeble That means the whole display is made up of several 15×7 modules. Each module has everything to drive […]

A PC keyboard is an old and trusted human machine interface. Most peoples are familiar with it. When a text entry is required it is the best method. If we can interface the PC keyboard with an AVR MCU we can create a whole lot of interesting applications! This tutorial will focus on our easy […]

This textbook provides practicing scientists and engineers an advanced treatment of the Atmel AVR microcontroller. This book is intended as a follow-on to a previously published book, titled Atmel AVR Microcontroller Primer: Programming and Interfacing. Some of the content from this earlier text is retained for completeness. This book will emphasize advanced programming and interfacing […]
