In this post we elaborately study how to make an Arduino based PWM signal generator circuit, which can be set or adjusted with a potentiometer or a pot to any preferred duty cycle ratio. WHAT IS PWM? pwm or pulse width modulation as the name itself suggest is modulation of width of the pulses i.e. […]
Newly Updated Circuit Projects:
High Current Motor Control Circuit using Arduino
In this project, I have explained how to control motor speed using Arduino PWM circuit, and how to implement reverse forward or direction control in a DC motor using Arduino through a couple of push button switches. Any high current motor upto 30 amp can be controlled using this set up. Introduction Motor is a […]
Using Digital Potentiometer MCP41xx With Arduino
In this project we are going to interface a digital potentiometer with arduino. In this demonstration potentiometer MCP41010 is used but you can use any digital potentiometer of MC41** series. By Ankit Negi INTRODUCTION TO MC41010 Digital potentiometers are just like any analog potentiometer with three terminals with only one difference. Whereas in analog one […]
Password Controlled AC Mains ON/OFF Switch
In this post I will show how to construct a password based mains ON/OFF switch circuit, which can turn ON and OFF the AC mains supply, only when correct password is entered. This prevents the danger of electrocution of the technician who might be currently working with the high voltage lines and equipment. Password Protection […]
Over Current Cut-off Power Supply Using Arduino
In this post I will show how to construct a battery eliminator / DC variable power supply which will automatically cut-off the supply, if the current flow through the load exceeds the preset threshold level. Main Technical Features The proposed over current cut-off power supply circuit using Arduino has 16 X 2 LCD display, which is […]
Introduction to EEPROM in Arduino
In this post I have explained what EEPROM is, how data is stored on built in EEPROM on Arduino board’s Microcontroller and also practically test how to write and read data on EEPROM by a couple of examples. Why EEPROM? Before we ask what EEPROM is? It is very important to know why EEPROM […]
