When working on a project, plenty of us will reach for an Atmel microcontroller because of the widespread prevalence of the Arduino platform. A few hackers would opt for a bit more modern part like an ...

Many PIC processors require 5-V power while being programmed, yet battery-powered systems may contain low-voltage devices that will be damaged at voltages above their maximum voltage ratings. In ...

We could all use a new hobby in 2021, especially after tiring of our old ones over the past year. If you're hoping to expand your interests and happen to have some free time on your hands at home due ...

For years, Microchip PIC microcontrollers dominated; PIC16F84 hacks and projects are everywhere. The 8-bit 16F and 18F lines are supported by several coding environments and easy-to-build serial port ...

The objectives of assembling this robot include following a line, going over the ramp and memorizing a track. To achieve the objectives of this line-following robot, a firmware was written for it and ...
