In this article we look at the A look at a DsPIC30F4011 Development Board again. This time we will use the SPI OLED fitted to the board Lets look at the DsPic and the OLED on the schematic. You can see…

In this article we look at the A look at a DsPIC30F4011 Development Board again. This time we will use the buttons on the development board and light the LEDs Lets look at the DsPic and the LED’s on the schematic.…

In this article we look at the A look at a DsPIC30F4011 Development Board and we will do a hello world type example where we simply flash the LEDs on the board Lets look at the dsPic and the LED’s on…

In this article we look at some new hardware that I recently purchased, in this case I was looking at the DsPic controllers. In this case we look at the  DsPIC30F4011 Lets have a look at the DsPIC30F4011 controller, here…

I bought the QL200 PIC development board a long time ago, its a great resource. This is the board 1) Switch between power supply thru USB or external power supply. 2) 128*64LCD and 16*2 LCD module 3) 32 LEDs are…

The ADXL335 is a small, thin, low power, complete 3-axis accelerometer with signal conditioned voltage outputs. The product measures acceleration with a minimum full-scale range of ±3 g. It can measure the static acceleration of gravity in tiltsensing applications, as…

In the last post we looked at a magnetometer example this time we will look at the default accelerometer example The LSM303 3D Accelerometers/Magnetometer Models are a system-in-package featuring a 3D digital linear acceleration sensor and a 3D digital magnetic sensor.…

The LSM303 3D Accelerometers/Magnetometer Models are a system-in-package featuring a 3D digital linear acceleration sensor and a 3D digital magnetic sensor. These best-in-class eCompass devices enable superior PDR or unique use cases in emerging applications, including drones and personal navigation systems.…

In this example we connect a Chipkit Max32 to a L9110 fan module. This is a commonly found, basic low cost module which consists of an L9110 chip and a small motor attached. You need 4 connections between the arduino…

Another sensor reaches the desk, this time it is a Si1145 sensor, we will connect it to an Chipkit Max32 and test it out First the sensor The Si1145/46/47 is a low-power, reflectance-based, infrared proximity, ultraviolet (UV) index, and ambient…
