In this article, we are going to interface the GY-521 accelerometer with Arduino. The GY-521 has an InvenSense MPU6050 chip which contains a 3-axis accelerometer and a 3-axis gyro meter. This makes it a 6 DOF IMU (6 degrees of freedom inertial measurement unit). The chip also includes a 16-bit analog to digital converter on each channel …
We had a project that required connection to a digital micrometer with a data output jack. The idea was to connect a microcontroller to the micrometer, to read the measurements and make decisions based on the readings. The micrometers that we used are made by Mitutoyo, and have a funky 52 character data stream in …

LED matrix displays can be used to display almost anything. Most modern LED sign boards uses various types of matrix boards with controllers. In this tutorial we are going to interface a single color 8×8 LED matrix with Arduino and display a few characters in it. 8×8 matrix consists of 64 dots or pixels. There is a LED for …
In this article, we are publishing a tutorial on how to interface seven segment LED display to Arduino. Seven segment displays are used in many embedded system and industrial applications where the range of outputs to be shown is known beforehand. Basic 1 digit seven segment display can show numbers from 0-9 and a few characters. 7 …

In this tutorial we are going to interface a seven segment display to ARDUINO UNO. The display counts from 0-9 and resets itself to zero. Before going further, let us first discuss about seven segment displays. A seven segment display got its name from the very fact that it got seven illuminating segments. Each of these segments has …
This project gives you a nice and simple scientific calculator using AVR microcontroller. It has 2 keypads as shown in the circuit diagram and the results are shown on the 16×2 LCD display. You can do sin,cos, tan functions using this project. Read more: Scientific Calculator using AVR Microcontroller
In this project, we are going to learn, How to set up hardware support for Arduino in MATLAB software. How to control an Arduino using MATLAB code. We normally use Arduino IDE to write and upload codes to Arduino. The advantage of MATLAB is, it uses a high-level programming language which is easier than C / C++. The other …
Here’s a simple calculator with the Atmega16 microcontroller. It have an LCD display and a 4×4 keypad. You can also download the proteus simulation file on the downloads Bascom Code $regfile = “m16def.dat” $crystal = 1000000 Config Kbd = Portd , Debounce = 30 Config Lcd = 16 * 2 Config Lcdpin = Pin , Db4 = Portb.4 , Db5 = Portb.5 , Db6 = Portb.6 …

This project turns on and turns off a laser LED after every second. It can also monitor its own supply voltage level. The circuit can be extended for use as an audio-visual alarm system for security applications. Keyes KY-008 laser transmitter module is available at www.ebay.com. But there is a lot of confusion regarding this …
You can’t calculate binary values “as is” on most handheld calculators and using the windows one is just a pain, so i decided to make my very own (binary only) calculator. This calculator supports all the basic functions like : NOT,OR,AND,XOR, addition,subtraction,multiplication,division and modulo. So join me as we are going to enter the world of ones and zeros …
