Five Ultra Bright LED Flasher Kit


Five Ultra Bright LED Flasher Kit - DIY

This CMOS VLSI single chip-on-board is designed for electronic toy and warning light applications.  Five LEDs flash on/off in a pseudo-random or sequential mode, depending on whether a switch is open or connected high.  Continuous flashing mode or toggle on/off is selectable by another switch.  The flash rate is controlled by a trimpot.

3 1/2 Digital LED Panel Meter Kit - DIY


Kit 61 has been designed as a versatile 3 1/2 digit panel meter with these considerations in mind. Also in this Kit we have used small, monoblock capacitors rather than the much bigger mylar or metallized types. This saves space as well as making the meter look better.

Big PIC Clock Kit - DIY


Big PIC Clock Kit - DIY

The Big PIC Clock is based on a PIC16F84 microcontroller (uC.) The software in the uC allows for very accurate timekeeping. For visibility at a distance it uses 2.3/57mm super large, hi-efficiency red LED displays for the hours and minutes and smaller 0.56 LED displays for the seconds. The circuit incorporates a dimming feature so that at night the reduced ambient light is sensed and the display is dimmed.

Introduction to LCD's Kit - DIY


Introduction to LCD's Kit - DIY

Learn how to connect a 2x16 LCD to a PC parallel port. First this kit will show you how to write keystrokes from the PC keyboard to display on the LCD. It will show you how to process this data (rotate the string left and right.) All the code is provided. Second, there is an on-board DS1620 to measure temperature. The temperature is displayed in F or C. Just press a button to display either. With the DS1620 you may set breakpoints to turn a thermostat on/off. We provide all the code to do this. Once the DS1620 is programmed it may be removed and placed in another device for temperature control. Many web references are provided.

PROGRAMMER FOR SERIAL EEPROMs KIT - DIY


PROGRAMMER FOR SERIAL EEPROMs KIT - DIY

Serial eeproms are finding more and more use in electronic devices these days. These small 8 pin devices offer non-volatile data storage and require minimal I/O lines to connect to them. This makes them ideal in many microcontroller based applications.

The programmer connects to the PC parallel port and is controlled by driver software running on the PC.
