What’s Science for a small child ?At that age, no one of us is aware about the vast branches in science ,yet we are very curious to know.There will be lots of Why’s and How’s in our mind which makes the elders irritated.By seeing a toy car,we always get wondered. Without knowing any robotics or elec...

Here is a simple, versatile project which indicates the level of water and automatically controls it by using PIC Microcontroller. The Water Level Sensing Section senses the level of water in the tank and sends it (wireless) to the Receiver Section. Receiver Section is connected to the Controlling S...

The thirst for new sources of energy is unquenchable, but we seldom realize that we are wasting a part of the electrical energy every day due to the lagging power factor in the inductive loads we use. Hence there is an urgent need to avoid this wastage of energy. Before getting into the details of P...

Microchip’s PICKit2 is much more comfortable,reliable and powerful than the other programmers that we can find all over internet. It is a USB based ICSP (In Circuit Serial Programming) programmer. Since it is a first release, Microchip published all the resources of PICKit2 public, which includes ha...

A Digital Thermometer can be easily constructed using a PIC Microcontroller and LM35 Temperature Sensor. LM35 series is a low cost and precision Integrated Circuit Temperature Sensor whose output voltage is proportional to Centigrade temperature scale. Thus LM35 has an advantage over other temperatu...

Introduction Hi friends…………….my first step in the field of microcontrollers is blinking an LED using PIC microcontroller and MikroC. I used PIC 16F877A for that. It is the one of the most popular PIC microcontroller and comes in a 40 pin DIP pinout. I use MikroC Pro for PIC as the C compiler because...

The electronic product construction technique for many is the printed circuit board, or PCB. There are a number of ways to build a custom printed circuit board. Good quality copper clad should be used for manufacturing of printed circuit board. Materials that you use to make printed circuit boards c...

Blinking LED will be the maiden step you guys might have taken while stepping into microcontroller programmings. We have already discussed led blinking in PIC section. Now lets have a look at ARDUINO development board, which is an open-source electronics prototyping platform. I am using Ardiuno uno ...

Usually a microcontroller comes with a limited number of IO ports called General Purpose Input Output (GPIO) ports. But some applications require more IO ports than that available on a microcontroller. In these cases we can use IO Port Expanders to increase the IO capability of a microcontroller. MC...

This demo program helps you to interface a 16×2 LCD display with ARDUINO board. This tutorial is provided assuming that you have basic knowledge in ARDUINO programming. If you didn’t have basic idea about ARDUINO programming. This programmer displays “Hello World!” on the LCD screen and also shows t...
