Micro Light Detecting Circuit

“This little circuit measures 10mm x 10mm and is probably one of the smallest and most basic light detecting circuits around. You can use the circuit to detect light levels and for example activate a LED to switch on when …

The MOnSter 6502

“You might have seen my discrete 555 and 741 IC electronics kits. Well, a while back I had this idea about creating a discrete version of a microprocessor, but it just sounded too difficult, time consuming, or impractical. And part …

12V to 28V Step Up DC-DC Converter

“The Step-Up DC-DC Converter project provides 28V, 175mA output with input of 12V DC. The MC34063A IC is heart of the project from On semiconductor. The MC33063A is a monolithic control circuit containing the primary functions required for DC …

3D Printer (RepRap) Monitor

“My wife and I were sitting together in my office recently and as usual the 3D Printer was churning away. Much to our surprise, and this has not happened before or since, the electronics stack started to smoke quite actively …

6 Digit Serial Display Driver with CAT4016

“6 Digit serial display project has been designed around CAT4016 IC from ON semi. The CAT4016 is a 16 channel constant current driver for LED billboard and other general display applications. LED channel currents are programmed together via an external …

Arduino Bottlefiller

“If you are an homebrewer you know how is boring to bottle 60 or more liters. And you also know how a good bottle filler is expensive. When I say a good bottle filler i mean one whith at least …

Automatic cymbals from old printer

“Hi everyone! I want to show you how to make an automatic cymbals from old pinter parts.”

DS1307 RTC Module

“The module based on DS1307, The DS1307 serial real-time clock (RTC) is a low-power, full binary-coded decimal (BCD) clock/calendar plus 56 bytes of NV SRAM. Address and data are transferred serially through an IC, bidirectional bus. The clock/calendar …

master clock driver for antique slave clocks

“Big old wall clocks that were used in facilities such as schools, factories and hospitals are very appealing and will probably never go out of style. They are very durable and almost never break down due to very simple mechanism …

OpenDrop Digital Microfludics Plattform

“OpenDrop is a new design for an open source digital microfludics platform for research purposes. The device uses recent electro-wetting technology to control small droplets of liquids. Potential applications are lab on a chip devices for automating processes of digital …
