8 PIN SMD PIC development board is a full-featured development board and platform for 8-bit PIC® microcontrollers. This project is a versatile development solution, featuring several options for external sensors, off-board communication and human interface. Additionally, it offers...

Our AT89Sxx Development Board provides a very simple and cost effective prototyping platform.  The compact design provides connection to all the pins of the microcontroller for the user. Features Prototyping solution available for 40-pin AT89xx series microcontroller from...

Ham radio is the use of radio frequency spectrum for purposes of non-commercial exchange of messages, wireless experimentation, self-training, etc. Developing a ham radio project may requires using an antenna analyser, a device that is used for measuring input frequency and...

Hi! Today I'll explain you how to recover your bricked ATtiny microcontroller using your Arduino board. ATtinys are very popular due to their small form factor yet very powerful. While working with them you may accidentally brick the ATtiny. As arduino is extremely popular and really...

rik @ riktronics.wordpress.com show us how to program AVR microcontrollers using an Arduino board. Advanced hobbyists like me (and you, of course 😉) love to play with microcontroller. And the most famous microcontrollers for beginners are AVR series from Atmel™.  Almost...

PIC18F USB Development Board will help you with your prototyping requirement with any 28/40-pin Microchip microcontroller supporting USB interface . The board has been tested using PIC18F4550 40 Pin & PIC18F2550 28 Pin Microcontrollers. Features All ports terminating in...

Ken Shirriff did a teardown of a Sonicare electric toothbrush: The photos below show the top and bottom of the toothbrush internals. I expected to find a simple, low-cost mechanism, so I was surprised at how much complexity there was inside. The vibration mechanism (right) is built...

Scott @ swharden.com show us how to interface an analog signal to a microcontroller that doesn't have an ADC. I recently had the need to carefully measure a voltage with a microcontroller which lacks an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), and I hacked together a quick and dirty method...
