The input signal it is applied to a gate G and then to a counter, for a precisely period of time After this period of time, the input signal it is stopped for a while and then the cycle it is repeated. In the time of break the content of counter it is transferred in buffer memory and then it is displayed. After the load of buffer memory, the con

tains of counter is reset of reason to can begin a new count cycle. The successions of this signals are conform the follows diagram : The signals COUNT, LE, RESET are generated from the base of time. A very simple base of time which contains 2 ICs can be build using the folow schematic: Unfortunately this schematics have a long time of cycle Tc = 2s. In order to make this time shorter we can modified only the times Tle and Treset. But that means to use more CIs or another solution is to use a microcontroller with the necessary software. I have used a PIC microcontroller type PIC16F84A because it is easy to programm and the power consumption is low. The program is written for the PIC16F84A but cheaper PICs (as PIC16C61) can be used. ;= Base of time =18/06/00= ; rb0 1s ; rb1, rb2. 75ms ; internal clock ; standard crystal 4 MHz XT ; ;- ; configure programmer list p=16f84A;f=inhx8m _CP_OFF equ H`3FFF` ;code protect off _PWRTE_ON equ H`3FFF` ;Power on timer on _WDT_OFF equ H`3FFB` ;watch dog timer off _XT_OSC equ H`3FFD` ;crystal oscillator _CONFIG _CP_OFF & _PWRTE_ON & _WDT_OFF & _XT_OSC ;- ; cpu init portb equ 06 count1 equ 0C count2 equ 0D count3 equ 0E ;- ; bit init w equ 0 f equ 1 ;- org 0 ; ;- init movlw 0 tris portb ; set portb as output movwf portb start bsf portb, 0 ;rb0=1 call pause ;wait 1s bcf portb, 0 ;rb0=0 bsf portb, 1 ;rb1=1 call pauza ;wait. 75 ms bcf portb, 1 ;rb1=0 bsf portb, 2 ;rb2=1 call pauza ;wait. 75 ms...
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.....
