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…

In previous posts we showed some examples for the 4067 16-Channel multiplexer – http://www.piclearning.net/132/chipkit-uno-and-4067-led-output-example.php The HCF4051 device is a monolithic integrated circuit fabricated in MOS (metal oxide semiconductor) technology available in SO-16 and PDIP-16 packages. The HCF4051 analog multiplexer/demultiplexer is a digitally…

In a previous example we connected a DHt11 sensor and outputted the results via the serial connection, this is reasonable enough for testing purposes but a more practical example would be to display this information on an LCD display for…

This example is like a dark activated alarm using an LDR and a LED, in this case when the value read in drops below a certain level the LED will light. In the real world you could make a dark…
