Beacon Keyer
Lukas Fässler from Soldernerd published a project showing how he built a PIC-based beacon keyer: This is likely the first ham radio related project that I document here on this blog But my very first PIC project was a beacon keyer that I made for my father, HB9BBD. That was in...

FPGA eink controller
Julien @ hackaday.io build a custom board to control e-ink display. He writes: The idea is to control an old broken kindle 3 eink display with a FPGA. I started looking at http://essentialscrap.com/eink/waveforms.html and http://spritesmods.com/?art=einkdisplay since eink constructor...

Magic Mote MSP430G2553 wireless sensor node with NRF24L01+ module
Tom from Magic Smoke writes: This is my first time designing a PCB for MSP430. I really like the NRF24L01+ booster pack but I would like something smaller to use for remote temperature sensors. With that in mind I’ve designed a 24.5 x 50 mm PCB (2 on a 5×5 cm prototype) featuring...

10 or 12-bit DAC from the ATtiny85
David Johnson-Davies @ technoblogy.com writes: This article describes how to get up to two 10 or 12-bit digital-to-analogue outputs from an 8-bit Timer/Counter, such as in the ATtiny85. To test the routine I built a circuit which allows you to vary the brightness of two LEDs with two...
