Waveform generators (also called function generators) are useful for testing and debugging circuits. I often use them to test the frequency response of electronics components like op amp and sensors. This waveform generator is powered by an Arduino. It outputs four waveshapes: sine, triangle, pulse, and saw, each waveshape ranges in frequency from 1Hz-50kHz. The …
Monitor your road speed using the Arduino. This project uses a magnetic switch (also called a reed switch) to measure the speed of one of the bike’s wheels. The Arduino calculates the mph, and send this information out to the LCD screen on the handlebars as you ride. It is compatible with any kind of …
I’m here to show you how to use a HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Range Finder with an ATtiny85 as well as programming the ATtiny85 using the wonderful shield that randofo created. List of materials: ATtiny85 Programming Library Arduino Uno HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Range Finder and Library Jumper Wires Breadboard ATtiny85 Step 1: Program the Arduino Before you connect your shield to the Arduino …

Problem: So my nutritionist (doesn’t everyone have a nutritionist) suggested I should increase my exercise which primarily consists of walking my dog. She even gave me a chart of activities and calories burned. Here’s an example. http://www.nutristrategy.com/caloriesburned.htm Well, being a LAZY OLD GEEK, I decided to monitor my walking electronically. Solution: It was a “long and winding …
Biasing AC input using resistor divider and scaling up / down if necessary; Sampling fast and accurately using direct access to Control Registers of ADC and Timer1; Subtract whatever was added at step #1 from result of Analog / Digital conversion and Square; Average / accumulate, filtering following VU specification; Sqrt – take square root, …
Part 1. Analog Front-End. Opto-Isolator. Looking at the Power Quality Analyzer display, I was wandering, if there is any error in the measurement results, introduced by transformer. Overall THD picture doesn’t change much, suspiciously drawing same chart in the morning and in the evening, when electrical grid load significantly differs. Obviously, to estimate effect of the transformer, …
Arduino projects, make arduino rpm counter with arduino. Instruction; 1) Connect all jumper wire as shown in diagram. 2) Connect IR LED to digital pin 13. 3) Connect IR Phototransistor (dark) to digital pin 2. Make sure shorter lead connected to digital pin 2 and longer lead to Ground. Upload this code to your arduino …
This arduino projects show how to make voltmeter with your arduino. It use voltage divider concept to estimate the voltage input. Instruction; 1) Connect all jumper wire as shown in diagram. Upload this code to your arduino /* Voltmeter Voltmeter base on voltage divider concept. Code based on: http://www.clarenceho.net:8123/blog/articles/2009/05/17/arduino-test-voltmeter Coded by: arduinoprojects101.com */ // include the library code: #include <LiquidCrystal.h> // initialize the library with the numbers of the interface pins LiquidCrystal lcd(7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12); …
This project brings back the old time Analog VU Meter, with the added functionality of a neat looking clock! When you turn off your music the meters automatically swing into to clock mode. Behind it all is the popular and easy to use Arduino. This is my submission for the Make-to-Learn Youth Contest: What did you …
The if() statement is the most basic of all programming control structures. It allows you to make something happen or not depending on whether a given condition is true or not. It looks like this: if (someCondition) { // do stuff if the condition is true } [Get Code] There is a common variation called if-else that looks like …
