Arduino Tutorial: Using a Servo SG90 with Arduino


https://www.electronics-lab.com/arduino-tutorial-using-a-servo-sg90-with-arduino/

educ8s.tv shows us how to use a servo motor with Arduino UNO: A Servo is a small device that has an output shaft. This shaft can be positioned to specific angular positions by sending the servo a coded signal. That’s why we need the Arduino, in oder to send that signal to the servo. Servos […]

Nixie Tube Energy Meter


https://www.electronics-lab.com/46760-2/

John Whittington decided to build a Nixie tube energy meter to measure his house power consumption.  An Arduino would be the microcontroller but I wanted the meter to provide some form of data stream for a web based energy history. To make it an IoT, I a paired ESP8266 with it. I used both together […]

Teensy 3.2: A first look at the powerful Arduino compatible board

theorycircuit @ instructables.com shows us how to use TSOP 1738 IR receiver with your Arduino Board. By using arduino and IR Receiver TSOP 1738 (in our project, you can use any ir receiver available) we can decode any infrared remote code into hex or some other format. Before constructing the circuit check datasheet of IR receiver […]

Arduino MKR1000 – 32-bit board with WiFi


https://www.electronics-lab.com/arduino-mkr1000-32-bit-board-with-wifi/

The MKR1000 development board from Arduino provides a simple way to add wireless connectivity to IoT battery-powered projects. Arduino MKR1000 is based on the Atmel ATSAMW25 SoC (System on Chip), that is part of the SmartConnect family of Atmel Wireless devices, specifically designed for IoT projects and devices. The ATSAMW25 is composed of three main […]

DIY I2C LCD Display


https://www.electronics-lab.com/diy-i2c-lcd-display/

sspence @ instructables.com shows how to interface a character LCD using I2C and only two IO pins. The typical parallel LCD used with an Arduino (16×2 or 20×4) has 16 pins. Only 6 I/O pins are required on the Arduino, but what if you could get that down to two I/O pins, and still have those […]

NerO – An Energy Efficient Arduino UNO Compatible Design


https://www.electronics-lab.com/nero-an-energy-efficient-arduino-uno-compatible-design/

A reference design for an Arduino UNO compatible board based on the FTDI FT231X USB UART, delivers 5V at a full 1A without overheating. The UNO R3 is the staple of most Arduino based projects but it’s been around for a number of years and many of the features have been improved for example by […]
