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 […]

One of the most basic autonomous robot you can build is a line following robot(LFR). This type of robot is run over a white surface which has an arbitrary path drawn over it by using back paint. The task of the robot is to run exactly along this painted path. You may note that the

Detecting colour of an object can be an interesting and useful electronic application. It can be realized using a colour sensor like TCS3200 and a general purpose microcontroller like AVR ATmega32. TCS3200 Colour Light to Frequency Converter Chip TCS3200 chip is designed to detect the colour of light incident on it. It has an array

This instructable shows, how to do your own development board for Atmega16 or Atmega32 processors.The Internet is full of home made development boards, but I think that, there is room left for another one. This board have been very useful on my projects and I actually designed and made it to serve one of my

There have been several Instructables dealing with outputs from the ATtiny2313 and similar AVR devices. For example, http://www.instructables.com/id/Ghetto-Programming%3a-Getting-started-with-AVR-micro/, http://www.instructables.com/id/Drive-a-Stepper-Motor-with-an-AVR-Microprocessor/. Working on the latest one from The Real Elliot, which showed how to control stepper motors, I found that it would be really helpful to be able to run alternate sections of code in the same

In one of my previous posts, I discussed about Sensirion’s SHT11 and SHT75 sensors, which are capable of measuring both temperature and relative humidity. They are digital sensors and provide fully calibrated digital outputs for temperature and relative humidity. I also illustrated how to interface those sensors with a PIC microcontroller. Shawon Shahryiar from Dhaka, Bangladesh shared this project

Have you played with Arduino’s and now have a taste for microcontrollers? Have you tried to go beyond Arduino but got stopped by the dense datasheets? This is the instructable for you! I was working on an instructable for the epilog contest which would wirelessly link two smoke alarms. I wrote all the code and
