Another version: In this version I took PORTB of the AT90S1200 AVR microcontroller as you can see in the diagram, because this makes it simpler to let 8 LEDs flash back and forth. Set the Data Direction Register of port B as an output, the output will source current. What I did is loading an […]

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

Measurement of light intensity is a prime necessity in several occasions. The diversity of such needs make their way to various branches of physics and engineering as well as in media. For instance, in engineering, such kinds of measurements are needed to design optimum lighting conditions of a room. In photography, light intensity measurements ensure

Controlling temperature has been a prime objective in various applications including refrigerators, air conditioners, air coolers, heaters, industrial temperature conditioning and so on. Temperature controllers vary in their complexities and algorithms. Some of these use simple control techniques like simple on-off control while others use complex Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) or fuzzy logic algorithms. In
