We previously discussed that Arduino has no Programming Language of it's own. Arduino Basically For the Advanced Hobbyists. It Does Not Take Much Time to Learn Basic C, C++. But Again, How to Learn Arduino Programming So That Others' Projects Can Be Improved OR Own Idea Can Be Realized? Arduino is an open-source prototyping platform for the makers, artists, designers, hobbyists, or anyone … [Read more...]
Troubleshoot Servo Not Working With Arduino (Like TowerPro 5010 Servo)
Made in China, Taiwan Servos Like TowerPro 5010 Servo Not Uncommon to Die. Here is How To Troubleshoot Servo Not Working With Arduino. The tools needed to check a servo is not easy to reach by a common hobbyist. Not all the hobbyists has huge knowledge around PCB inside the servo. Except genuine Arduino board, nothing purchased which are Made in China or Taiwan has … [Read more...]
Which Kind of Multimeter Electronics Beginner Should Buy?
Previously, we talked about basic on the article multimeter for dummies. Technically You Should Know Formulas, Coding and Use Multimeter For Confirmation, Like Resistors Have Standard Coding. Which Kind of Multimeter Electronics Beginner Should Buy? Any Multimeter Which Works. By beginner, we are taking towards hobbyist not an engineering student. $3 multimeter is better to have for a hobbyist … [Read more...]
Arduino 14 Segment LED Display : Driver IC & Library
Among LED displays, it is TM1637 which is popular. When digits become more than 4, we need MAX 7219 IC, which is costly but commonly used. The cost makes 8 digit 7 Segment LED Display less commonly used. 14 Segment LED Display is almost exotic in programmable microcontroller world, because of less availability and higher cost of driver IC. Here is Information About Arduino 14 Segment LED Display … [Read more...]
Breadboard Fuse Holder and Fuse For Arduino Projects
It Prudent to Use Fuse When Basic Matter Around Fuse is Known. Without Knowing Using Fuse Provides False Sense of Security. Here is Basic Details on Breadboard Fuse Holder and Fuse For Arduino Projects. It is practical to read our previous article on Types of Fuses, Fuseholders Used in DIY & Household to get an idea about what are the names of fuses. In this article, we will talk about … [Read more...]
Prototype Board : How To Use
In our one previously published article, we discussed about Prototype Boards. Prototype Board - How To Use is a Common Question. At least, that is what one commonly searched question on our website. The Answer Depends on Type of Prototype Board (like Adafruit has a breadboard looking prototype board), the Need, Components and Of Course the Circuit. It is not that soldering is the only way, we can … [Read more...]
What Will Make Arduino To Read Data From Electronic Device?
It actually has no direct answer. What Will Make Arduino To Read Data From Electronic Device is Common Question, like one may want to read data from a BP instrument. We Hope We Will Clarify the Basic Theory and Practical Around What to Do. Unfortunately, understanding the total thing will need understand minimum theory, performing lot of web searches, test and adapt to proceed or quit. We may need … [Read more...]
Arduino TFT Touch Screen Calculator (MCUFRIEND) : Part 2
May be, reading the Part 2 of Arduino TFT Touch Screen matter will help you. The touch screen shield I got has ST7789V (0x7789), which is somewhat uncommon. This article is Part 2 of Arduino TFT Touch Screen Calculator By MCUFRIEND. These cheap China used-display stuffs basically have some risk of purchasing. If the driver is rare, you do not have much options. Identifying driver not also that … [Read more...]
What is Thermistor : Basics on Thermistor Using Arduino Project
In 1833, Michael Faraday discovered the first NTC thermistor. In high school, you were taught metal couple get bent with temperature. That thing is more old. Here is Basic Theory and Practical Basic Example on Thermistor Using Arduino Project With Circuit Diagram and Code. What is Thermistor? Thermistor is a basic electronic component like LDR, it is also a type of resistor whose resistance is … [Read more...]
Cheap, Small Arduino Projects With ATtiny 13, ATtiny 10 (Basics)
For the past few years, Atmel manufacturing smaller microcontrollers. ATtiny 85 is quite known. You Can Create Cheap, Small Arduino Projects With ATtiny 13, ATtiny 10. They cost $1 or lesser per unit and needs no external components. Basic problem is that - you probably can not get ATtiny13 or lower in local shop. So, ordering one unit not going to worth the amount of work. Among ATtiny 13 and … [Read more...]
Is Learning 8051 Microcontroller Needed Despite Having Arduino?
8051 is an older microcontroller than Atmega (which Arduino boards commonly use). 8051 has developmental board or one can build from basic electronic components. Now, after a certain point of learning, one may ask - Is Learning 8051 Microcontroller Needed Despite Having Arduino? Sadly, there is no easy answer. We talked about Von Neumann Architecture, ARM architecture etc. Good engineer, good … [Read more...]
