PWM Fan Controller schematic
The heart of the PWM Fan Controller is a PIC 12F675 microcontroller. This microcontroller is reading the analog output of a LM35 temperature sensor using a ADC (analog to digital converter). The resulting digital value is converted to a temperature...
DC Motor-Driver H-Bridge Circuit
Physical motion of some form helps differentiate a robot from a computer. It would be nice if a motor could be attached directly to a chip that controlled the movement. But, most chips can't pass enough current or voltage to...
PWM DC Motor Speed Control
This is a circuit for controlling the speed of small DC motors; it works nicely as a speed controller for an HO or N gauge model railroad. More: The left half of the 556 dual timer IC is used as...
Arduino Audio DAC Options
DAC stands for Digital to Analog Converter. This article explores the code created by Michael Smith for a PWM-based DAC. The code has been modified to allow for the testing of various DAC options. A comparison is made between the...
Small DC Motor Speed Regulator
Reverse engineered circuit diagram of a motor speed regulator out of a portable pocket tape recorder containing a single motor for all functions. This circuit works amazingly well, keeping the motor speed constant regardless of shaft load and battery voltage.
The...
Arduino Multiplexing
The Nixie tubes being utilized have 10 cathodes shaped like numerals and a screen-like anode. These are vintage Russian IN-12A tubes sourced from a reputable Ukrainian shop on eBay. Other types of Nixies may feature additional cathodes for displaying a...
arduino based remote control for electric door
A replacement remote control system for an electric garage door was constructed after the original remote failed multiple times. Although the old remote could have been repaired, it was 35 years old and not particularly enjoyable to use.
The replacement...
Another Arduino project for newbies
Electronic devices require precision. When a task is performed multiple times, the outcome is consistently the same. However, there are instances where random results are desirable, such as in gaming applications. This project demonstrates how to create a lottery game...
10 or more switches using a microcontroller
There are several methods to read multiple switch inputs using a reduced number of microcontroller unit (MCU) pins. One approach involves using an analog MCU pin to read multiple switches by assigning a unique voltage to each switch through a...
