At Home PCB Solutions

Posted January 16, 2009 by Chris

There have been other at home PCB projects posted here, but this one really tells it like it is, easy! All on one page with necessary parts listed out (just like my write-ups) and then the simple procedure for making a PCB step-by-step, done in an hour!

AVR FM Stereo Transmitter

Posted January 15, 2009 by Chris

The AVR FM Stereo Transmitter shows you how easy it is to build wireless projects. The math to get there can be a bit daunting but lucky, it’s already done for you in this project. The write-up includes hardware schematic and in-depth explanations.

Cheap DC Power Supply

Posted January 14, 2009 by Chris

This project is a great start for anyone interesting in the world of power electronics. There is nothing too special about the circuit except that it does what it is suppose to and is completely analog. The hardware circuit diagram is in the project write-up along with all details necessary to build this one.

Microcontrollers: Increase Data Space

Posted January 13, 2009 by Chris

One of the drawbacks to embedded devices is they never have enough memory. A very simple trick to get around this is to make use of program memory space as well as RAM memory space. Most modern microcontrollers allow writing to program memory while the program is running.

A Simple 5v Power Supply

Posted January 12, 2009 by Chris

For people who are new to anything related to microcontrollers or digital circuits you will quickly learn that 5v is the digital standard. Because of this, we have many devices with the sole task of generating 5v output for your project. This tutorial gives you the necessary intro to the infamous 7805.

Sawed Off USB Cable

Posted January 11, 2009 by Chris

This is a very simple project that shows you how to build a usb memory stick within the casing of a “sawed off usb cable.” No real engineering at work here, just careful disassembly & re-assembly, but it’s impressive!

Eee PC Car-Charger

Posted January 10, 2009 by Chris

The Eee PC Car-Charger is a very simple yet versatile project. The basic circuit from this project can be used to facilitate making a charger for almost any device. The charger itself is very easy to make, take a look!

StickDuino – Arduino Clone

Posted January 9, 2009 by Chris

StickDuino is a completely open source custom USB stick for an Arduino. If you’ve ever wanted to learn how to interface Arduino to USB or Build a PCB for your Arduino, this is a great place to start.

1E Disco Dance Floor

Posted January 8, 2009 by Chris

Dance Floor of the Future, Now! Although you’d probably rather have a machine do this kind of repetitive work, the outcome is pretty damn cool; 128 square feet of disco dance floor. This project has a very professional website devoted to showing you how to make one.

Self-Balancing Skatanova

Posted January 7, 2009 by Chris

Anything electronic that is capable of self-balancing is an amazing sight to behold. One step beyond that is anything electronic that can move a human around while still balancing. Skatanova does just that and with a very modest budget.
