Digital oscilloscope GLCD using Atmega32 microcontroller

This project describes how to make a digital oscilloscope using an Atmega32 microcontroller and a graphics LCD. The GLCD used has 64*128 pixel dots (GDM12864A with KS0108 processor) and the AVR runs at 16 MHz using an external crystal oscillator. To enhance the speed further, it uses an external A/D converter chip, ADC0820. The sampling

Oscilloscope

Oscilloscope using AVR microcontroller using Atmega

Designing a professional digital oscilloscope is a pretty complex task wich makes them also pretty expensive. Therefore I concluded it’s nothing more than a daydream to design one of those. It’s far more realistic to limit the design of this instrument to something a bit more realistic. If you connect something like the JYE Tech Oscilloscopeto

Thermocouple Temperature Meter

AVR Thermocouple Temperature Meter using ATmega164 microcontroller

The benefit using thermocouple sensor for measure temperature is it has wide range measurement (-200 °C to +1350 °C / -328 °F to +2462 °F range for Type K), inexpensive, interchangeable, and is supplied with standard connectors. To get temperature value from output of a thermocouple, you need high precision amplifier and proper compensation circuit due to

AVR High Voltage Programmer Using Arduino AVR microcontroller Using Atmega

AVR microcontroller uses fuse bits to set its operational parameters like watchdog timer settings and change speed of the internal oscillator. Most fuse bits can be set or reset without worry. You can flash it into one state and then flashed back again using an SPI programmer. However, some fuse bits like RSTDISBL fuse are
