In this post I will show how to construct a digital capacitance meter circuit using Arduino which can measure capacitance of capacitors ranging from 1 microfarad to 4000 microfarad with reasonable accuracy. Introduction We measure value of the capacitors when the values written on the capacitor’s body is not legible, or to find the value […]

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 […]
Make this Advanced Digital Ammeter using Arduino
In this post I will show how to construct a digital ammeter using 16 x 2 LCD display and Arduino. We will understand the methodology of measuring current using a shunt resistor and implement a design based on Arduino. The proposed digital ammeter can measure current ranging from 0 to 2 Ampere (absolute maximum) with […]
5 Simple Electronic Dice Circuits Explained [Digital Dice]
We all know what a dice is and how manually a dice is shuffled and thrown to get a random number. In older times when we did not have computer games or mobile games, we used to play with various indoor games that required tossing a cubical thing called dice having 1 to 6 dots […]
Simple Digital Water Flow Meter Circuit using Arduino
In this post I will show how to construct a digital water flow meter using Arduino and 16 x 2 LCD display. We will be taking a look at YF-S201 water flow sensor, its construction and working and how to interface with Arduino to extract some useful readings. The proposed project can measure the rate […]
Digital Weighing Scale Using Load Cell and Arduino
In this post I have explained about strain gauge based load cell. We will be exploring what Strain Gauge is, what Load Cell is, temperature effect on strain gauge, temperature compensation with Wheatstone bridge and Load cell amplifier HX711, and finally I have explained how to build an Arduino based weighing scale machine by implementing […]
