“In science and in engineering worlds keeping track of temperature aka (movement of the atoms in thermodynamics) is one of the fundamental physical parameters one should consider almost everywhere, starting from cell biology up to hard fuel rocket engines and …
“This project is microphone based and require minimal external components. 2 x LR44 coin cells are used so that I can have the whole structure working in the confines of a 170 tie-point mini breadboard. ADC10, TimerA interrupt LPM wake-up …
“For a while now I have been thinking about the ability to remotely monitor what is going on environmentally in a location. I have thought about this with regards to the summer, with a cottage more than an hour away …
“This is an electronic game of snake and ladders. The position of the snake and ladders is pseudo random in the sense that the snakes and ladders are not fixed and change every time the switch is pressed(analogous to …
“Finite State Machines (FSM) are widely used in embedded applications and are well suited to controlling things that are event driven. The potential benefits include: A formal method to capture and test all states and inputs, easily defined logic, and …
“This project allows a user to control an RC wirelessly via WiFi through the use of the app, Blynk, which must be downloaded on your phone. This project is a continuation from the Line Follower Robot project I posted previously …
“I wanted to do a follow-up to my last clock build, the MSP430 Analog Gauge Clock, reusing some of the code from that project, and I had an IV-18 vacuum florescent display (VFD) tube that I bought on Ebay …
“The MSP430 is a great little micro, and with some proper marketing, it could easily have provided an alternative to the AVR and PIC. However unclear, obfuscating, archaic documentation, spread very thinly over the web has made this little micro …
