Designing and Building a binary clock


https://www.electronics-lab.com/designing-and-building-a-binary-clock/

Parker Dillmann @ macrofab.com has designed a wrist LED binary clock based on PIC16F527 Microchip mcu. The Macro Watch stemmed from those constraints. I picked the PIC16F527 microcontroller by Microchip to be the core of the watch because it was the cheapest MCU I could find that had enough I/O and I knew at least […]

FT900 – flexible bridge between interfaces


https://www.electronics-lab.com/ft900-flexible-bridge-between-interfaces/

FT900 is 32bit RISC MCU developed for high speed, interface bridging tasks. FT900 provides a large amount of connectivity options. To name only a few, FT900 can: ● process data from parallel camera input and send them via Ethernet ● transform data from camera to create bitmap compatible with FT8xx (EVE) and send it through […]

L293D Motor Controller Tutorial


https://www.electronics-lab.com/l293d-motor-controller-tutorial/

Sooncheng @ instructables.com shows us how to control a DC motor using the L293D IC and an Arduino: L293D is a chip that enable us to control two motors together with only one Arduino board or other microcontrollers. However, I was having a project that required controlling four DC motors together. Recently i brought a L293D […]

ESP8266 Weather Station


https://www.electronics-lab.com/esp8266-weather-station/

blog.squix.ch has published there code for a ESP8266 based weather station. More details here: It is not yet working as smoothly as I want it to work but maybe some of you can help me getting rid of the nasty issues that were bugging me for the last few weeks. The README on github contains […]

Build a Simple Toaster Oven Temperature Profile Controller


https://www.electronics-lab.com/build-a-simple-toaster-oven-temperature-profile-controller/

Maurizio @ dev.emcelettronica.com has tipped us about his latest project. In this article he discuss how to build a simple toaster oven temperature profile controller using StickOS and CPUStick. This is the first part of the article. Using a highly-integrated microcontroller running “StickOS BASIC”, it is possible to quickly build a toaster oven temperature profile controller for performing […]

A development board for the STM32F042


https://www.electronics-lab.com/a-development-board-for-the-stm32f042/

Andy Brown designed a development board for the STM32F042 in the TSSOP20 package: This project came about because I’m using the STM32F042F6P6 (32Kb flash, 6Kb SRAM) in another project where I’m creating a USB device and the first thing I did is try to obtain a development board for it. I was hopeful that ST […]

Pixie – 3W chainable smart LED Pixel


https://www.electronics-lab.com/pixie-3w-chainable-smart-led-pixel/

Ytai Ben-Tsvi @ ytai-mer.blogspot.com build a PIC based 3W LED Driver that is chainable. He writes: LED Pixel: The Pixie is a color LED module, allowing an external controller to change its color and brightness dynamically. Chainable: The module is designed so that you can chain many of them and control each one individually. If you […]

Non-Contact Body Temperature Meter


https://www.electronics-lab.com/non-contact-body-temperature-meter/

One of the most commonly used medical instruments nowadays is the thermometer. The thermometer is used to monitor or measure the body temperature of a sick person. The idea of creating a thermometer started from a device called thermoscope, a thermometer without a scale. Several inventors developed it until Sir Thomas Allbutt invented the first […]

RC Servo Driver 0-5V


https://www.electronics-lab.com/rc-servo-driver-0-5v/

0 – 5V Servo Controller project will control a hobby type servo motor connected to it via a preset or external DC source.  This kit will be ideal add on in animatronics and motion control application. This is a simple but a useful circuit to control a single servo motor.  Its an ideal add on […]
