In this example we connected a 4X4 Key-pad shield with display interface from http://store.iteadstudio.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=308 Here is a picture of the shield minus the LCD5100 display, as you can see it provides you with a number of keys that could be use…
The HC-SR505 Mini PIR Motion Sensor is based on infrared technology and it can automatic control by itself with high sensitivity and high reliability. Because of the minimum size and low-power operation mode, it widely used in various of automatic…
The bar graph is basically a series of LEDs in a line, this is a common hardware display for analog sensors. It’s made up of a series of LEDs in a row, you simply treat these as you would do…
In this example we will create a Magic 8-ball using an Chipkit Uno and an LCD keypad shield, when one of the buttons is pressed a random message will be displayed. The Magic 8 Ball is a toy used for fortune-telling…
In this example we will connect an RGB LED to our Chipkit Uno and control it via a C# winforms app that will send commands down to the Chipkit via the com port. In this example we keep the commands very simple…
In this simple project we will create a simple morse code flasher, you will use the serial monitor to type in a message and this will then be flashed in morse code on an LED. If you wish to learn…
On one of my recent visits to an electronics website I saw this voltage sensor, intrigued I bought it and wondered how it worked, there didn’t seem much to it. As a Chipkit Uno is limited to 3.3v maximum on…
In this example I wanted to connect a shield that I purchased for Arduino development and use it with my Chipkit Uno 32. The shield is a Nokia 5110/3310 display and is called the SainSmart Graphic LCD4884 Shield For Arduino…
In this example we will connect an LM35 temperature sensor to our Chipkit Uno The LM35 series are precision integrated-circuit temperature sensors, whose output voltage is linearly proportional to the Celsius (Centigrade) temperature. The LM35 thus has an advantage over…
The MAX7219 is a compact, serial input/output common-cathode display drivers that interface microprocessors (µPs) to 7-segment numeric LED displays of up to 8 digits, bar-graph displays, or 64 individual LEDs. Included on-chip are a BCD code-B decoder, multiplex scan circuitry,…
