IgorPlug-USB (AVR) Universal USB interface -  Yes!!! now its possible to connect an AVR  microcontroller direct to USB port of PC, running  windows.  This circuit is infrared (IR) receiver.….(design added 03/09)
Image-capture system uses USB and LabView 24-Jun-10 Issue of EDN  Capturing and processing graphical images requires manipulating data into a form that you can use.  This Design Idea describes an imaging system using a USB (Universal Serial Bus ) image-capturing system that uses OmniVision’s 640×480-pixel, 8-bit-color OV7660 image sensor. The CY7C68013A-128AXC from Cypress Semiconductor provides a USB interface between a PC and the image sensor (Figure 1). The control software is written in LabView from National Instruments.... [Design Idea by Chien-Hung Chen and Po-Jui Chen, National Applied Research Laboratories, Hsinchu, Taiwan]
Interface MIDI instruments to a PC through a USB port -  17-Apr-08 Issue of EDN  You can interface MIDI-equipped musical instruments to a PC via a USB port.... [Design Idea by Stefano Palazzolo, Senago, Milan, Italy]
iPOD Charger -  The circuit's pretty simple, basicly it's just a voltage regulator. Both the LM317 and the REG1117A (LDO) fit the PCB, maybe there are even more types that I'm aware of that can be used on it. I did add one extra thing: a LED that shows if the connected device is consuming power. To do this I used a shunt resistor and a current converter. I choose 0.2 ohm for the shunt, since it's not hard to come by and should only drop 0.1V @ 500mA. Either an INA168 (current output) or an INA193-198 (INA194 is best in this case) (voltage output) will fit as current converter. The trip point at which the LED should start to burn can easily be adjusted by one resistor (in case of the INA168) or by two (in case of the INA193-198). In the schematic it is set at 100mA using an INA168 using a 950k resistor. The Schmit buffer is a Texas Instruments Little Logic chip (1G17). ….(electronic schematic added 11/08)
LCD 2 USB -  LCD2USB is a open source/open hardware project. The goal of LCD2USB is to connect HD44780 based text LCD displays to various PCs via USB. LCD2USB was meant to be cheap and to be made of easily available parts. It is therefore based on the Atmel AVR Mega8 CPU and does not require any difficult to obtain parts like separate USB controllers and the like. …....
LED Light -  A simply and easy-to-make circuit, useful when working with the computer at night. (6/08/2006)
LED Load -  The board supports driving two separate tri-color LEDs. More can be setup inline if desired. Currently the software only uses the second LED and its color represents the CPU load of the system in real-time. Blue for idle and gradients light blue, green, yellow, orange, and finally red indicating heavy CPU utilization. If the system fails to respond, the LED begins flashing RED to indicate a lack of communication from the software.  This lets you easily identify a crashed machine in a rack for example. ….(design added 11/08)
