This basically the frequency meter section of the frequency meter/pulse generator based on the AT90S2313 described elsewhere on this site, combined with the 100 MHz RF interface described in the page about the RS-232 to 100 MHz RF desktop channel adapter. Built and align this is the same manner as the 100 MHz RF desktop

Download the firmware: mor040220BBeacon.asm This is a low power signal source I put together one evening to provide 187 KHz RF signals for an anticipated receiver investigation. Under Federal Communications Commission rules inside the United States, one is allowed to operate a transmitter without a license under certain conditions. Here, I have copied the relevant section

This is my first Arduino project aimed at helping me with my other hobby which is growing oyster and shiitake mushrooms indoors. In a nutshell, the controller takes in two temperature readings, 1 Humidity reading and 1 Co2 reading and triggers a set of four relays connected to mains power. Intended to be connected to

My last visit to the dentist convinced me that I should really brush my teeth at least two minutes. I decided to build a special toothbrush timer: it would detect when a brush is taken out, measure two minutes and notify when the time is up. I chose to use Atmega328p, a weight sensor, brass cups,

The aim of this ATmega644-based project is to build a portable device implementing wireless technology and taking full advantage of the wide-spreading Internet to provide a convenient solution to monitor human health. The health information acquired on the portable side transmits to the server wirelessly and can be accessed all over the Internet in real-time. The end device turned out

Due to university and work it has been a while since the last post. But I just completed a little project that’s worth posting. Several old 27C256 EPROMS were lying around unused. So I thought about a purpose for them. As I also had some 8×8 LED matrices, a little animated display came to mind. With each frame

I recently obtained a very old mobile phone from a friend. The battery was dead, so I dismantled it and to my surprise found a display with soldered contacts. In other mobile phones the display was connected via a conducting polymerpad, which was extremly difficult to use on selfmade circuitboards. Googling the name of the display brought up

Here is my project on interfacing of SD Card (microSD). microSD cards are available very cheap nowadays, a great option for having a huge memory in any embedded system project. It is compatible with SPI bus, so the interfacing is easy. SD card adapters are also easily available in market, one can easily make a bread-board adapter by soldering

Building a stand-alone AVR ATMEGA project sometimes leaves you with no easy to read output from your project. But you can use an Arduino to act as a communications bridge between your embedded project and your PC’s Serial Monitor program! I’m building an embedded multi-channel thermocouple reader/datalogger, which has a lot of connections and soldering, thus many

I love the Atmel AVR microcontrollers! Since building the Ghetto Development System described in this Instructable, I’ve had no end of fun experimenting with the AVR ATtiny2313 and the ATmega168 in particular. I even went so far as to write an Instructable on using switches as inputs, and extended the Ghetto Development System concept to CPLDs. During a recent project, I
