Input Attenuator for the Digital Audio Millivoltmeter - If you'd like to be able to use our Digital Audio Millivoltmeter to measure AC voltages up to 140V RMS, this add-on project is the answer. It's a simple switched input divider which lets you add 40dB, 20dB or 0dB of attenuation ahead of the meter at the touch of a knob.__ SiliconChip

Interfacing Sony Control Stick to Empeg - After discovering that others had interfaced wired remote controls to their Empegs (including Sony control sticks) I decided to try to do it with the fewest components possible. You may find that there are too few, if your power is very noisy (as can happen in a car environment) it may help to place a 0.1uF and/or 10uF capacitor before and/or after the voltage regulator. At the moment I'm not using these but at this point I've only tested it on the bench, not in the car. I'll update this web page after it's all installed. __ Designed by charlie @ armory.com
Interfacing the PIC16c508 - Each of the output lines of a '508A microcontroller can deliver a maximum of 25mA.
What does this mean? It means any device connected to the line must take 25mA or less. If it takes more than 25mA a buffer transistor (also called an amplifying transistor) must be used and this will be discussed in a moment.
However, if it operates on less than 5v, and requires less than 25mA, a current-limiting resistor must be included. __ Designed by Prepared Colin Mitchell
Intrusion Detector-Video - This device uses a PIC16F819 and an LM339 to detect motion on a video signal. The incoming video is 'clamped' using one section of the LM339, the sync tips are detected with another section, and a 3rd section can detect VBI or other data. __ Designed by Luhan Monat, Mesa, AZ

IR Digital Thermostat for FAN - This circuit measures temperature in Celsius scale and displays it on an alphanumeric LCD screen When temperature rise to 40 C an alarm is activated and at the same time a relay is also activated which drives a fan to keep the temperature at a level __ Contact: IQ Technologies
IR Security - PIC Project This unit uses one TSAL6100 IR/LED emitter from Digi-Key. This IR diode has a narrow (10 degree) radiation pattern at 940 NM. It is driven via 2n2904 transistor for maximum current pulses. The detector is a Vishay TSOP4838 38Khz integrated receiver module. The 38Khz signal for the emitter is generated in software. __ Designed by Luhan Monat, Mesa, AZ

Key-Reading Saves I/O Pins - 6-Mar-03 EDN-Design Ideas Amplifiers perform precision divide-by-2 circuitSome microcontroller applications usually use too many I/O pins to read keys or onboard switches; in many cases, few pins remain available for other uses. Some alternative ways to read keys yieldfree pins. First, consider some ways to effect key reading.
