How to program a 93C66 EEPROM chip with an AVR microcontroller? The 93C66 is a serially (MICROWIRE) Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM (EEPROM) chip with 4 kbit (4096 bit, can be ORGanized as 256 x 16bit or 512 x 8bit) memory space. Here a DIL version (which I will use in my moving message sign project) […]

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

On this page you will find a scrolling LED sign based on the ATtiny2313 AVR microcontroller, which you can build yourself (when finished) Other names for this device can be: Moving message sign, Message crawler, Scrolling message, message display, etc. The idea is to let a text scroll over the LED dot-matrix displays. A dot-matrix
This morning (2009-12-31) I built my 4th AVR programmer. USBasp. I built this one because I wasn’t completely happy with my 3rd programmer and because I want to play with a software USB stack. I do know that it works (I just reprogrammed 2 old projects just to try it out. Programming seems to be
LC Meter: Schematic Source code This is the project I am currently working on (2010-01-23). The LC meter is based on Elmcie or Elsie and other similar LC meters. This project is in a very early prototype stage and is at the moment only capable of measuring inductors. Even though I have build the first
An Atmega128 microcontroller has got 4K of built in static RAM, which is pretty enough for small and medium range projects that do not involve huge amount of data processing. But if you think you need more than that for your application, you can expand it by adding an external RAM chip. This article shows
