Ever since I started playing with the Arduino I knew I wanted to get further into how they worked and even start forging ahead with my own designs. Fortunately there is a fantastic community of… Learning Eagle PCB Designer: My First Custom Arduino Board Layout
A few weeks ago I setup my Arduino to power a simple single digit 7 segment LED array. It took lots of pins from the Arduino (one per segment) to power it. Nice simple setup… Getting Started with MAX7219 LED Driver: Arduino 7-Segment Display Tutorial
I got an order in from Jameco yesterday and inside found a long awaited sensor! I had ordered a couple of the Allegro linear hall effect sensors. These are different than the others I purchased… Using Allegro Hall Effect Sensors with Arduino: A Proximity Switch Tutorial
I decided today after I got home from work, I’d try to get my next quick project done. I wanted to control a hobby servo using a standard TV remote. I had a RadioShack IR… Control a Servo with a TV Remote and Arduino: IR Receiver Project
I was waiting on an order I had placed with Tayda Electronics (they rock) for my One-Wire temperature sensors. If you haven’t heard of One-Wire or these particular sensors you need to check them out. They… DS18B20 One-Wire Temperature Sensor with Arduino: A Budget-Friendly Thermometer
I decided on Saturday that I’d try my hand at building a setup with the Arduino to detect sound. I found the perfect schematic online here from the guys over at SparkFun.com. They have a really… Build a Sound Level Detector with Arduino and Electret Microphone
