Accurately simulate an LED
Jon Roman and Donald Schelle have a design idea on how to simulate a high power led to test your driver circuit. Testing the driver circuit using LEDs, although easy, yields only typical results because the tests don’t factor in worst-case LED parameters and often generate...

circuitstoday.com guide us to the basics of LED and bargraph usage in Proteus software. In this post we will be learning on how to use the “Light Emitting Diode (LED)” component in Proteus simulation software. In case you have not got on through the basics of Proteus, here is...
Continue ReadingAVR vs PIC: The case of the candle
A self-igniting candle implemented using AVR and PIC microcontrollers. This project has two variations, one using an ATTiny25, the other using a PIC12LF1822. In a series of minimalistic devices, this electronic candle periodically measures ambient light levels. Once it detects...
