DIY 2^16 encoder based on PIC - This code is WORK IN PROGRESS, use at your own risk. This encoder can transmit the state of up to 16 TTL digital inputs using an RF or infrared transmitter. When enabled, the included modulator automatically generates the 38kHz IR carrier. Containing a PIC microcontroller, the circuit is very flexible. You can decide which transmitter inputs will trigger a transmission. You can control the receiver outputs to be latched or momentary with the LATCH input. __ Designed by Peter Jakab DIY Fast LUX Meter - Lux meters that are capable of measuring high-speed light intensity fluctuations are hard to find. This article describes a DIY lux meter that has a linear relation between the light intensity and output voltage and has a -3 dB frequency range from DC to 350 kHz. The spectral sensitivity is broadly similar to the human eye. __ Designed by Freddy Alferink
DIY Nokia 51xx/61xx data cable - This is a simple project for one winter night when you have nothing better to do. Parts will not cost all that much, so you will save money by building the cable yourself. This also works with everything I tried on my 6150 phone. __ Designed by © Madis Kaal

DIY remote control based on PIC - Control up to 8 devices by this easy constructable remote control. It can work as a radio or infrared remote control, depending on the components. Each device output can be configured to be momentary (turned on while you press the button) or latched. Latched outputs can be toggled on/off by one button per channel, or turned on and off by two buttons per channel __ Designed by Peter Jakab

DIY wattmeter with an Arduino - It is difficult or sometimes even impossible to measure power and energy with ordinary multimeters. To carry out such a measurement reliable and accurate, a special wattmeter is required. Because these meters are very expensive, a cheaper solution is presented here as a DIY wattmeter based on a Arduino Nano board. __ Designed by Freddy Alferink

Door Camera Mount - PIC Project If your front door has one of the peep hole viewers, you can use this method to mount a small video camera in its place. A small project box outside contains the video camera ($25 from Circuit Specialists) . The camera is hard to see in this picture; it is in the top half of the box. A hole just below the center is fitted with a short piece of lamp threaded rod (from your local hardware store) , a big washer, and the matching nut. The metal cover for the box is replaced by some 0.060 lexan and held with 4 screws. __ Designed by Luhan Monat - Mesa Arizona

Driving an LED with or Without a Resistor - In this post I will try to show, why it's a good idea to use a current limiting resistor for an LED. And when it's save to drive the LED without any resistor. If you read about LEDs, you will notice that everyone tells you, that you need a current __ Designed by Radio LocMan
Driving Dot LED - A basic circuit of the 89C2051 shown here can be made easily using point-to-point soldering with a universal PCB. Use an ordinary 20-pin socket, do not use a circle-pin socket. D1 is a small dot LED. U2 can be either 7805 or 78L05. U3 is optional for correcting any polarity DC adapter. Without the 2051 chip __ Designed by Wichit Sirichote
Driving high-power loads with a microprocessor - This tutorial offers suggestions about controlling large loads with a microprocessor. This is often an issue with those building robots who need to control devices such as lights, motors, vacuums, and other accessories found on robots. We will only deal here with devices that need to be switched ON and OFF - not devices that need the power reversed. Obviously drive motors and other devices need to be switched ON/OFF and also have the power reversed in order to reverse the direction of the motors. That normally requires an H-bridge which is a much more complicated circuit. __ Designed by Roger Arrick
Driving LED display matrix from a PIC micro - Driving a 64 LED dot matrix LED display is quite simple and just requires ONE TRICK! Here you can find out how to drive an led dot matrix with 64 LEDs (8 rows by 8 columns - 8x8 display) or less e.g.35 LEDs (7 rows by 5 columns - 5x7 dot matrix) . However the principle remains the same for larger displays - you may need more processing power and driver circuitry though. __ Designed by John Main
Driving LEDs In Parallel & Series using a PIC16c510 - Scroll to find this circuit #6 - If a number of LEDs are required to be driven from a single output, you will need to connect them in parallel or series. There are limitations, however, as you will see. Firstly it is ok to connect two LEDs in series, provided you work out the value of the dropper resistor. __ Contact: Colin Mitchell

Driving More Than 4 LEDs using a PIC16c510 - Scroll to find this Circuit #7 -If more than 4 LEDs are required to be driven, a buffer transistor will be required as shown in fig: 12. This transistor will allow the LEDs to be driven from a 12v supply (or higher) and the number of LEDs can be increased to 6 per column for 12v __ Contact: Colin Mitchell
DS1620 programming tool - I needed thermostat control for my countryhouse that would be precise at low temperatures, so that I can keep the temperature above freezing while I am not there. The winter here is long and cold, so heating more than absolutely necessary makes your wallet a lot thinner. DS1620 chip, originally from Dallas, now Maxim was easy enough to find. It has an ability to run in stand-alone thermostat mode where it only needs power, and will drive output according to set temperature limits. However, what I could not find was PC software for programming the limits. There is a programming tool from Dallas, but that only works for ancient windows versions and DOS. __ Designed by © Madis Kaal

DSC PK5500 keypad fix - After just 3 years since installation LCD panels of both keypads of my home security system failed pretty much completely. It started with one of them developing a lot of 'bad pixels' until the text became unreadable. The other followed the suit few months later. The process from first bad pixels to unusable level took about a year or so. __ Designed by © Madis Kaal
