TCS3200 is a color light-to-frequency converter chip which can be programmed through a microcontroller. The module can be used for detecting all the 7 colors of white light with the aid of an integrated microcontroller such as Arduino. In this post we are going to take a look at RGB color sensor TCS3200, we will […]

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 […]
Introduction to I2C LCD Adapter Module
In this post we are going take a look at “I2C” or “IIC” or “I square C” based LCD adapter module, which will reduce wire connections between Arduino and LCD display to just 2 wires, also saving tons of GPIO pins for other sensors / drives etc. Before I have explained about I2C LCD adapter […]
SMD Resistors – Introduction and Working
Resistors which are based on SMT technology are called SMT resistors which are one of the members of the SMD family or surface mount device family. By: S. Prakash The electronic equipment of various types such as televisions, commercial communication equipment, cell phones, research equipment of high technology and MP3 player uses the SMD resistors. […]
Introduction to Schmitt Trigger
Almost any digital circuit used in modern high-speed data communications needs some form of Schmitt trigger action on its inputs. Why Schmitt Trigger is Used The main purpose of a Schmitt trigger here is to eliminate noise and interference on data lines and provide a nice clean digital output with fast edge transitions. The rise […]
