TTL Tilt Sensor via Accelerometer
Posted October 14, 2011 by Chris
Time for more accelerometer stuff! Since the 7400 logic competition is allowing more than one entry, I figured why not build something else? This tilt sensor was designed using only 7400 TTL discrete logic parts, so there is no software involved. It uses an accelerometer sensor’s output for X and Y axis to show you how much the board is tilted on an 8×8 LED matrix display.
