Digital Call Sign Annunciator - In the USA, R/C wireless video hobbyists are required to operate their video transmitters under the FCC Part 97 regulations (amateur radio) . The only exceptions are the Part 15 approved systems, but these low power alternatives are rarely used. Other countries have similar requirements. Playing by the rules will certainly prevent conflicts with government officials, since they can levy substantial penalties to offenders. But more importantly, following the rules is the basis of good amateur radio manners. __ Designed by RC-CAM T. Black

Digital pot adjusts LCD's contrast - 02/04/99 EDN-Design Ideas NOTE
: Page includes
several designs. Scroll to find this one. You can use a digitally controlled potentiometer for many purposes. In this example, you can use the device to regulate the contrast of a standard (such as two lines by 40 characters] LCD. You can use the circuit in Figure 1 in a portable test system, in which you need to change the contrast of the LCD as a function of the viewing angle. You choose the contrast setup Design by Jef Collin, CSE Systems, Turnhout, Belgium
Digital Potentiometer Controls LCD Bias - 03/17/94 EDN-Design Ideas Designers of pen-based computers can easily relegate some controls that were previously mechanical, such as switches and potentiometers, to on-screen icons. For example, the circuit in Fig 1 shows one way that digital logic can control the -24V-dc LCD bias using two general-purpose I/O command lines.

Digital potentiometers enable programmable biquadratic filter - 07/22/04 EDN-Design Ideas Of the many types of analog filters available to designers, few allow easy adjustments of the filter parameters. The biquadratic, or biquad, filter is an exception, however. You can change that filter's corner frequency (ω0], Q, and gain (H] by adjusting the values of three resistors. For that purpose, the lowpass biquad circuit of Figure 1 includes three digital potentiometers configure Design by Deborah Mancuso and Donald Schelle, Maxim Integrated Products, Sunnyvale, CA
Digital Thermostat with LED Temperature Display - I needed to replace two old, unreliable thermostats for controlling the heating and cooling for a large garden shed. Commercial basic digital thermostats are available quite cheaply, but some lack the ability to control heavy loads or have the extra features that I require for saving energy when the door is often left open or to indicate temperature being out of range etc. I like the PIC18F1320 microcontroller used in my previous project, so decided to use it again in a very similar design to drive three multiplexed LED displays and read the temperature from a Dallas/DS18x20 "1-Wire" digital sensor. __ Designed by D. Thorpe, 2006
Digital Voltmeter with LED Display - This is an easy to build, but nevertheless very accurate and useful digital voltmeter. It has been designed as a panel meter and can be used in DC power supplies or anywhere else it is necessary to have an accurate indication of the voltage present.

Discrete LED Color Organ - Here is a new version of the classic color organ, where different color lights are triggered by different frequencies of sound, resulting in a display that flashes along to music. In this case the newer type high intensity LEDs (30005000mcd) were used along with a very simple discrete transistor drive circuit. The design goals included small size and excellent portability, as well as long battery life. __ Designed by Chester Winowiecki
Display bit-map images on small-graphic LCDs - 11/19/98 EDN-Design Ideas NOTE
: File contain several designs. Scroll to find this one. Combining a high-level language, such as Microsoft Windows, with low-level assembly code or C++ code allows you to display perfect bit-map pictures on your small-graphic LCD screen. You can use Microsoft Paint or any other bit-map-generating program to define and edit the picture. Unlike segmented and alphanumeric LCDs, small-graphic LCDs are fully graphical and can display logos, graphs, or any other image in addition to numbers and characters. The main hurdle to upgrading to this type of display is the software necessary to display the bit-map pictures. Design by Todd Fitzsimmons, Densitron Corp, Santa Fe Springs, CA

DVI/HDMI Decoder - From the day i received my beagleboard rev. B7 i was missing an easy way to use the digital video interface with a small LCD screen. Many people seem to have the same problem and often end up with big and expensive adaptors. Further indication that this is a common problem comes from the fact that the latest incarnation of the beagleboard includes a way to directly interface to the OMAPs parallel video interface. Unfortunatately this only provides 1.8v signals and still needs a converter to interface to the 3.3v signals most raw LCD use. __ Designed by Till Harbaum <Till @ Harbaum.org>
