Minimal I2C for the New AVR Microcontrollers


https://www.electronics-lab.com/minimal-i2c-new-avr-microcontrollers/

This article describes a set of minimal I2C routines for the new 0-series and 1-series ATtiny and ATmega microcontrollers. They allow any of these processors to act as an I2C Master and connect to I2C peripherals. As an example of their use I’ve designed a digital clock circuit based on a 0-series ATtiny402 connected to […]

Room Weather Station Using Arduino and BME280


https://www.electronics-lab.com/room-weather-station-using-arduino-bme280/

We have built quite a number of weather stations in several past tutorials, with each one differing from the other by the use of a different sensor, different display, etc. Today, we are going to build another weather monitoring station using the BME280 Temp and humidity sensor from Adafruit and an OLED display. The BME280 […]

Using a 16×2 I2C LCD display with ESP32


https://www.electronics-lab.com/using-16x2-i2c-lcd-display-esp32/

A few weeks ago, we examined the features of ESP32 module and built a simple hello world program to get ourselves familiar with the board. Today, we will continue our exploration of the ESP32 on a higher level as we will look at how to interface a 16×2 LCD with it. Displays provide a fantastic […]
