Below section covers a list of simple microcontroller projects to learn and work with the concepts of various microcontrollers and architectures. These microcontroller based projects are covered with detailed explanation of working of hardware, circuit diagrams, software and codes.
Microcontrollers are widely used in various industries, electronic products, automobiles etc.. to perform computing or logical operations. With this huge importance the demand of microcontrollers in industries is prominent and hence as electronics engineers it is important for us to learn how to use them. There are a large number of semiconductor companies manufacturing a variety of microcontrollers, the most popularly ones are 8051 microcontrollers, AVR microcontrollers, PIC microcontroller, TI Microcontrollers, Arduino, Raspberry Pi etc.
We know that ESP-01 is the best and cheaper module available in the market. As the title suggest, in this tutorial, we are going to interface a separate Wi-Fi module with the Raspberry Pi Pico. We will learn how to connect and program the ESP01 module with Raspberry Pi Pico using Micropython and ESP8266 library.
The ESP8266-01 module comes…
Raspberry Pi camera module is a tiny board that can be interfaced with Raspberry Pi for capturing pictures and streaming videos. In our previous tutorials, we used Pi camera module with Raspberry 3 & 4 to build many OpenCV based projects. In this tutorial, we are going to interface the Pi camera module with Raspberry Pi Zero W and try taking pictures and record…
With the hope that you are enjoying our Raspberry Pi Pico tutorial series, we are here with another interesting tutorial. In this tutorial, we are going to control a servo motor with Raspberry Pi Pico using Pulse Width Modulation in MicroPython. So far, we have learnt how to interface an OLED and LCD. Along with that, we also got to learn how to implement the…
Kodi is one of the most popular media centre applications available today. It comes with many features like Live TV, PVR/DVR, video player, audio player, image, comic book and games, etc. Talking about Raspberry Pi Zero series, it is ideal for building media centre applications as it is the cheapest Raspberry Pi microcomputer range that costs…
Hey everyone, in this tutorial we are going to interface a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) module with the Raspberry Pi Pico using Micropython. By the end of this tutorial, you will be able to display strings, characters on the LCD using Micropython. Before beginning this tutorial, I'm presuming that you've already followed our tutorial series on Raspberry Pi Pico.…
AI has been a buzzword this entire decade. People have been applying the concepts of AI in all possible fields – Agriculture, Medical Imaging, Autonomous Driving, Biometrics, encryption, Data Analysis, FinTech, and what not. However, because it is a rapidly emerging field there is a lot of changing and upcoming technologies. Frameworks get old within months and libraries…
E-paper, often known as electronic paper, is a type of technology that imitates the look of ink on paper. Electronic paper displays differ from LCD panels in a way that they reflect rather than emitting light, similar to paper. In this tutorial, we will see the brief introduction and working of E-Paper display and we will interface this small E-paper display with Arduino UNO…
Hello! everyone, this tutorial will be extremely exciting for electronics makers because we will be designing our own touch-capacitive Piano with Arduino Nano. We will include a recording and replay feature on our Piano. So far, we've made a few piano projects using Arduino, but this one is quite different because we are going to use capacitive touch keys for our piano…
The Raspberry Pi Zero W is the new and improved upgrade of Raspberry Pi Zero family. In this getting started series for Raspberry Pi Zero W, we have previously controlled an LED with Pi GPIO, interfaced a 3.5-inch TFT display with Raspberry Pi Zero W and in this tutorial, we are going to interface I2C 16x2 LCD and 4x4 keyboard with Raspberry Pi zero W. Throughout…
In this tutorial, we are going to interface a 3.5-inch TFT display with Raspberry Pi Zero W development board. Although Raspberry pi zero itself has an HDMI output that can be directly connected to a Monitor, but in projects where space is a constrain, we need smaller displays. This TFT touch screen display can be easily interfaced to the Raspberry Pi to display…
Ever wondered why do you need Node-RED with Home Assistant? It looks like that both Home Assistant and Node-RED do the same things but they excel in different areas. Home Assistant’s main power is its ability to interface and control any smart device existing at the moment. The main method of creating automation in Home Assistant is by using…
Hello electronics makers, this tutorial is going to be very exciting for you because at the end of this tutorial you will be able to program a new super low-cost microcontroller. I am always being curious to try new kinds of development boards and microcontrollers. If you are a regular reader of our website, then you might have seen our previous tutorial series on the…
