AD7705/AD7706 Library Revisited
About a year ago, I wrote a simple library for interfacing AD7705/AD7706 with Arduino. The library works, but it requires […]
Interfacing LTC6904 With Arduino
LTC6904 is a programmable oscillator which is capable of generating frequencies from 1kHz to 68MHz. The oscillation frequency can be […]
Using MSP430 LaunchPad As Programmer
In this blog post, I will show you how to program an MSP430G2 series chip outside the MSP430 LaunchPad (MSP-EXP430G2) […]
A Self-Balancing Robot – III
In part one, I went over the theory behind the self-balancing robot and in part two, I showed you my […]
A Self-Balancing Robot – II
In my previous post, I explained the theory behind the self-balancing robot at a high level. Here, I will discuss […]
A Self-Balancing Robot – I
Building a self-balancing robot is one of those things that every hobbyist and engineer want to do. But there are […]
So Why I like Arduino
You probably know this already from just reading some of the posts in my blog. Like millions of others, I […]
Simplifying MSP430G2 Programming
I just started playing with TI’s MSP430 LaunchPad (MSP-EXP430G2) a few weeks ago and have found it surprisingly capable so […]
ATmega328 Fuse Bit Setting for 3.3V Vcc
By default, ATmega328 used in Arduino (such as Uno or Duemilanove) operates under 5.0V. Sometimes though it is necessary to […]
MSP430G2 DCO Frequencies
MSP430 LaunchPad (MSP-EXP430G2) is compatible with many of the TI‘s Value Line series of microcontrollers. For these MCUs, both the […]
Adding Off-Screen Buffer to Serial LCD Display
Since the current Arduino tools do not support in-circuit debugging, you will have to rely heavily on the serial print […]
A Short Guide On Motor Electrical Noise Reduction
This topic is nothing new and there are already quite a few good articles on the web on this. But […]
My Renesas Demo Boards Arrived
Last week, I received two of the demo boards from Renesas. One is a YRPBRL78G13 and the other is a […]
Using FRAM as Nonvolatile Memory With Arduino
One of the biggest advantages of FRAM (or FeRAM, Ferroelectric RAM) over EEPROM is that FRAM has a much higher […]
Interfacing MMA8453Q With Arduino
MMA8453Q is a rather inexpensive accelerometer. It is significantly cheaper than many other 3-axis accelerometers (such as the popular LIS3LV02DL) […]
