Electromechanical components such as relays and switches often must undergo endurance tests that verify their reliability and safety. Regulatory standards typically have compliance criteria that ...

Many microcontroller designs typically mix multiple interfacing methods. A microcontroller (µC) system can be viewed as a system that reads from inputs, performs processing and writes to outputs.

Members can download this article in PDF format. In this design idea, you will learn how to interface two PIC microcontrollers using a wireless 433-MHz RF transmitter/receiver pair to control up to ...

It looks like [Michal Zalewski] is raising the next generation the right way. First, his eldest son asks for help building a one-bit computer from discrete transistors. Not to be left behind, his ...

How many remote controls do you have in your home? Don’t you wish all these things were better integrated somehow, or that you could add remote control functionality to a random device? It’s a common ...

If you're curious about the function of a relay in the context of home automation and the Internet of Things, here you go. In this piece, we'll explain the practical applications of many different ...

Makers, developers and hobbyists who enjoy making projects from home automation using different Arduino microcontrollers, Raspberry Pi mini PCs or anything else that can connect to the Internet of ...

In this paper, the authors purpose remote electrical parameters like voltage, current and frequency and send these real time values over GSM network using GSM modem/phone along with temperature at ...

In this design idea, you will learn how to interface two PIC microcontrollers using a wireless 433-MHz RF transmitter/receiver pair to control up to six relays and monitor two analog signals. The ...
