Programming The Attiny45 With An Arduino As ISP Programmer
In this post, I’ll show you how to program the Attiny microcontrollers via the Arduino IDE using an Arduino board as an ISP programmer.
ESP32 WiFi Camera
In this post, I’ll show you how to program the ESP32 Camera board to live stream the video feed to your browser.
Attiny 85 Digispark Board
In this post, I’ll show you how to use and program the Attiny 85 Digispark board with the Arduino IDE. I’ll demonstrate how to add the board to the Arduino IDE and how to install the drivers. Finally, we’ll make an example sketch that simply blinks an LED.
Arduino SD Card Reader
In this post, we’ll see how to make an SD card reader shield for the Arduino. It’s pretty simple as it’s just a matter of connecting the proper Arduino pins to the correct pads on the SD card adapter. Additionally, resistors need to be added for certain pins. These will form voltage dividers that will drop down the signal voltage for the SD card from 5V to around 3.3V.
DIY SMD Vacuum Pickup Tool
In this post, I’ll show my DIY SMD vacuum pickup tool. I bought this vacuum pump SMD pickup but it had no way to be turned on/off. There is only a hole on the vacuum “pen” that you can cover with your finger to make or release the vacuum. I decided I would mod it and make it operable with a footswitch. When pressed the vacuum pump is turned on and when you let go the vacuum pump is turned off while the valve is opened at the same time to release the vacuum and instantly drop the SMD part from the nozzle.
8-Bit Computer Arduino Programmer
This post is about the Arduino programmer I made for the 8-Bit Computer in an FPGA. I will show how to use it, connect it, and briefly explain how it works. If you are interested in the source code you can get it all here on Github. This programmer should also be compatible with a normal breadboard computer like the one Ben Eater made in his video series.
Arduino TVout library Image Output
In this tutorial, you will learn how to output video from an Arduino and display it on a TV. Here we will specifically, see how to output an image. If you would like to know how to make the adapter or know more about the other functions available(outputting text, shapes, pixels) in the TVout library see this post.
Arduino RCA Video Output to TV
In this tutorial, you will learn how to output video from an Arduino and display it on a TV. We will make a board/cable adapter that will connect the Arduino to the TV through the RCA input. Then we’ll look at some of the functions available to us in the TVout library and use them to output something to the screen.
Sending multiple values over serial to Arduino
This is a tutorial on how to send/receive multiple values at once over the serial port with an Arduino.
Windows C# app Arduino control over serial port
We will be using Visual Studio to make a Windows Forms Application that will communicate with the Arduino over a serial port and switch an LED on or off.
