How to Read Binary/Hex Thumbwheel Switch with an AVR Microcontroller using ATmega328p microcontroller

This instructable will show you how to read the number on a binary pushwheel or thumbwheel switch using LED’s or an AVR microcontroller (I’m using an ATmega328p but this can be adapted for any AVR or probably another microcontroller of your choice). Multiple thumbwheel switches can be strung together to make an electronic combination lock,

Power Your Arduino From Your Car using AVR microcontroller

Power Your Arduino From Your Car using AVR microcontroller

The Arduino — and AVRs in general — have a wide range of power supply options ranging from around 1.8V to 5.5V. The choice of voltage is usually determined by the desired clock speed or power consumption requirements. The Arduino and its many variants have power jacks that allow connections from big, clunky “wall warts.”

Using Arduino to communicate with embedded project using AVR ATMEGA microcontroller

Building a stand-alone AVR ATMEGA project sometimes leaves you with no easy to read output from your project. But you can use an Arduino to act as a communications bridge between your embedded project and your PC’s Serial Monitor program! I’m building an embedded multi-channel thermocouple reader/datalogger, which has a lot of connections and soldering,

AVR mini board with additional boards using attiny2313 microcontroller

Somewhat similar to PIC 12f675 mini protoboard, but extended and with additional boards. Using attiny2313. Step 1 Scheme Let us first start with a scheme. The scheme is pretty obvious since it only connects attiny2313 with the pins and the only additional elements are resistors and capacitor for reseting the microcontroller. Step 2 Bottom view
