Digital Up/Down Volume Control Circuit
In this post I have explained a simple digital volume control circuit using the IC DS1668 which can be used in amplifiers and all audio equipment for achieving a push button press up/down volume control facility. What are Electronic Rheostats The DS1668 and DS1669 Dallastats are electronic rheostats or potentiometers. These devices present 64 possible […]
Digital Clock Activated Water Level Controller Circuit
An automatic clock time triggered water level controller circuit which responds to a real time clock input is discussed in the following article. The design also includes a water detection stage which makes sure the initialization takes place only in the presence of water in the tank or the pipe. The idea was requested by […]
2 Digital Potentiometer Circuits Explained
In this post I have explained a 2 simple, single chip digital potentiometer circuits which can be controlled through a single pushbutton, a dual pushbutton (up/down) or even through external digital (CMOS/TTL) input triggers. 1) About DS1869 Dallastat TM is a rheostat or potentiometer. This unit delivers 64 conceivable consistent tap outputs over the over-all […]
Converting Analogue to Digital (Analogue Read Serial) – Arduino Basics
In this Arduino basics I have explained the code implementation procedure wherein an external analogue signal is fed to the Arduino analogue input and translated or converted into a correspondingly proportionate digital readout. Here we employ a variable resistance in the form of a pot as the analogue signal source. Analog Read Serial In this […]
Monitoring State of a Switch (Digital Read Serial) – Arduino Basics
This Arduino basics discusses the method of implementing a code through which the ON or OFF state of an external push-button could be read or monitored within the Arduino. Digital Read Serial Here I have explained through an example how to monitor the state of a switch by performing serial communication across your Arduino and your PC via USB. In excess to your […]
