Servo Motor Control using Arduino In this tutorial we are going to control a servo motor by ARDUINO UNO. Servo Motors are used where there is a need for accurate shaft movement or position. These are not proposed for high speed applications. These are proposed for low speed, medium torque and accurate position application. These motors are used in robotic arm machines, flight controls and control systems.… |

GSM Module Interfacing with 8051 Microcontroller GSM module is used in many communication devices which are based on GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) technology. It is used to interact with GSM network using a computer. GSM module only understands AT commands, and can respond accordingly. The most basic command is “AT”, if GSM respond OK then it is working good otherwise it respond with “ERROR”. There are… |

How to Use Shift Register 74HC595 with Arduino Uno In ARDUINO we have 20 I/O pins, so we can program 20 pins of UNO to be used as either input or output. Although there are more pins on ATMEGA328P controller than on UNO, this is because while designing the board some pins are defaulted.
Now for some applications we need more than 30 pins, say if we want to… |

Stepper Motor Interfacing with 8051 Microcontroller A stepper motor is a brushless DC motor, which can be rotated in small angles; these angles are called steps. Generally, a stepper motor interfacing with 8051 uses 200 steps to complete a 360-degree rotation, which means it rotates 1.8 degrees per step. Stepper motor control using 8051 microcontroller is used in many devices which need precise rotational movement, like… |

Distance Measurement using HC-SR04 and AVR Microcontroller In this tutorial we are going to discuss and design a circuit for measuring distance. This circuit is developed by interfacing ultrasonic sensor“HC-SR04” with AVR microcontroller. This sensor uses a technique called “ECHO” which is something you get when sound reflects back after striking with a surface.
We know that… |
