So you wana learn how to programme a micro controller? This tutorial has been designed as a next step, following the fantastic tutorial ‘Ghetto Programming: Getting started with AVR microprocessor on the cheap.’ by The Real Elliot link you should read this before progressing onto this next step. Today my friends we are going to make a […]

This tutorial shows how to implement the Analogue to Digital Converter (ADC) function on ATMega32 using C code. It consists of code examples, and the meaning of some nomenclature such as sampling rate, and resolution. However before we get to the code, let us start from the beginning. The ATMega32 has a built-in 10-bit ADC. The input

In this projects 8 different colors are displayed with the use of a RGB LED. The microcontroller that is used is the ATMega8. An RGB LED is a LED which has three LED’s integrated in one packaging. These LED’s have the colors red, green, and blue. Such a LED costs about 1 Euro. With these
In this project we are going to interface LDR with ATMEGA8 microcontroller, and with this we can measure LIGHT INTENSITY in the area. In ATMEGA8, we are going to use 10bit ADC (Analog to Digital Conversion) feature to measure the light intensity. Am LDR is a transducer which changes its resistance when LIGHT falls on its surface

This is basically a knockoff of the Hypnocube, instead of being 64 LEDs, thus costing at least $150 to make, I made a smaller version of 8 LEDs for under $30. The result is a 2x2x2 cube where each light is independently controllable. I’m not absolutely sure how many colors you can get from each
