This device was designed to replace the original digital clock in a Fiat Ducato 1992-1994, mounted just above the inside rearview mirror. The original clock is not very accurate, only displays time and is sensitive to interference (e. g. from Xenon headlights). The replacement device described here does not have these disadvantages, and on top of t

hat also displays the temperature and the car`s battery voltage. It works on the car battery and uses the Microchip MCP9800 as a temperature sensor. This circuit is based around the PIC16F1937 microcontroller. This chip is actually a small computer contained in a single chip, including RAM memory, EEPROM, I/O ports, CPU and so on. When you buy this chip, it comes empty with no program on it. You have to compile the source code and download the resulting machine code into it, using a PC and a small programmer attached to the PC and the chip. To get yourself familiar with this stuff, I suggest you first read this link: Getting started with microcontrollers. - First set the hours. Press and hold the button, the units of the minutes will increase until reached 0, then the tens of minutes will increase until reached 0, then the hours will increase. Release the button when the hours are correct. - Then set the tens of minutes. Press and hold the button, the units of the minutes will increase until reached 0, then the tens of minutes will increase. Release the button when the tens of minutes are correct. - Then set the units of minutes. Press and hold the button, the units of the minutes will increase. Release the button when the units of minutes are correct. 12V power coming from contact or light switch must be connected to PAD8. This is for the backlight, it will be on when the engine is running or when the light is on, by means...
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
