DC Motor Speed and Direction Controller

“DC Motor Speed and direction controller project based on L293D H-Bridge and 555 Timer IC. 555 Generate PWM and L293D works as output driver. The 293D provides bidirectional drive current up to 600mA a voltage from 5V to 12V. L293D …

Float a ping pong ball at will!

“I have always been fascinated by things that are controlled wirelessly by hand motions which is probably why I own a Wii now that I’m thinking about it. But I haven’t really gotten to doing any motion control …

PWM dimmer for RGB LED

“In my last post Ive described the design and construction of my LED dimmer project. This project here is similar but a bit more involved. It controls RGB LEDs so it can not only change the brightness but also the …

Attiny25/45/85 PWM generator and Servo tester! Updated Code!

“Hello, in this project I want to show you how to build a PWM generator with a Attiny processor. It is very easy to build and a nice project for starters as also for professionals. You will need some electronic …

Control an LM317T with a PWM signal

“The LM317T from National Semiconductor is a popular adjustable-voltage regulator that provides output voltages of 1.25 to 37V with maximum 1.5A current. You can adjust the output voltage with a potentiometer. The circuit in Figure 1 replaces the …

Make A PWM Motor Speed Controller

“Microcontrollers such as Arduinos are a great way to control your custom electronics projects. Unfortunately the digital pins have a max output of 40mA, and this isnt enough to power most motors. This is where a motor controller shield can …

PWM dimmer for LED lighting

“I have recently moved to a new apartment and was looking for a PWM dimmer to control some 12V LED strips. I thought that should be easy enough nowadays but it proved more difficult than I thought. All I found …

Simple 555 PWM

“This circuit sets up the common 555 timer IC to output a PWM pulse that can be varied by the position of a connected potentiometer. PWM (pulse width modulation) is commonly used to control the speed of motors or brightness …

The perfect Beer with Arduino: OpenArdBir project

“Open Ardbir is largely inspired by the original project formerly Braudino from Stephen Mathison and then upgraded and modified by Mike Wilson under the Mike’s Brewery appellation and is been completely reviewed by Max Nevi and Italian team (Alessio …

PWM Halogen Lamp Dimmer

“High Current PWM Halogen Dimmer controller project is designed around SG3525 IC and High current MOSFET. Project can handle lamp up to 5 Amps (10Amps Possible with big heat sink) and supply 12-24V DC .Ideal for Halogen Dichroic Lamp or …
