The project published here is a distance measuring sensor shield for Arduino Nano including power driver BJT transistor to drive a load like solenoid, motor or LED. This project can be used as Arduino shield or as stand-alone sensor. GP2Y0D810Z0F from Sharp is heart of the project, The...

Today we will take a look at using a rotary encoder with Arduino and displaying rotation data on the Nokia 5110 LCD display. A rotary encoder is an Electro-mechanical device that converts angular position or the rotation of a shaft into analog or digital values. By turning the shaft to...

This article is the first of a series detailing the design and build process of an Arduino controlled Dual Mono AK4490 DAC by DimDim: The design goal was to do a dual mono design so as to maximize SNR and channel separation. A 4-layer PCB design was chosen so as to have a very solid,...

This project is simple solution to power Arduino Nano from two 1.5V batteries. Circuit converts 2 X AA alkaline battery power into 6V 100mA using boost topology. Circuit uses SOT223-6 pin TLV61046A boost converter IC. The TLV61046A is a highly integrated boost converter designed for...

In the previous tutorial I showed how to build a weather station using DHT11 and BMP180 with an Arduino. However, the project has a downside which is the power consumption of the 16X2 LCD. If we were building a battery powered project with the desire to last for several weeks and...

Here is another guide from David Johnson-Davies @ technoblogy.com explaining how to program an ATmega328 on a breadboard using the Arduino IDE. The guide is focused on how to use the internal clock of the microcontroller and how to achieve this using the Arduino environment. By default...

DevDuino is a Fully Redesigned and Enhanced Arduino-Compatible Board with Plenty of Must-Have Features. It features a 128x64 OLED display, along with a variety of LED indicators, RTC module, a slot for a micro SD card, and many other convenient features. The project is live on...

Our friends at educ8s.tv uploaded a new video about how to build a ESP32 Wifi enabled weather station: In this video, we are going to make this. It is yet another weather station project I know, but this time we use the new ESP32 chip! We also use the new BME280 sensor which measures...
