Microcontroller Watches, Controls AC Power - 06/22/95 EDN-Design Ideas - Circuit allows an isolated microcontroller to both sense and control ac power to an externally plugged-in device - For monitoring and controlling a power circuit from a microcontroller  (µC) , Fig 1 replaces the conventional technique of a low-value resistor and differential amplifier  (with gain set for the expected current value) .  A control line turns TRIAC Q1 on and off via optoisolator IC2.  When an appliance is plugged into J1 and turned on, the voltage drop across Q1 is independent of the current value and sufficient to turn on optoisolator IC3.  The phototransistor current of IC3 charges C1to a logic 1, which is sensed by the µC.   Design by Samuel Kerem, Infrared Fiber Systems, Silver Spring, MD

Microcontrollers Can Be a Snap - Thanks in no small part to the SILICON CHIP promotion over the last five years, popular and cheap PICAXE micros are widely now considered the best value educational microcontroller.  However, motivated pre-teens and fuzzy-eyed seniors who are "keen to learn about micros" may find PICAXE PC board soldering or breadboard circuit assembly too fiddly.  So here's a nifty approach that fits a PICAXE-08M micro-controller into the gutted sound module from a colourful "Snap Connector" electronic kitset.__ SiliconChip

Microcontroller-Temperature Measurement Uses Only a Diode & a Capacitor - 12/05/08  EDN-Design Ideas - Discharging a capacitor through the reverse leakage of a PN junction allows you to measure ambient temperature.  Using a PN-junction diode for temperature measurement usually depends on its 2‑mV/K temperature  coefficient.  Conventionally, you must amplify and digitize this voltage with an ADC before you can use the value in a microcontroller.  Less well-known is the fact that the reverse current of a PN-junction diode shows a good exponential dependency over temperature; increasing the temperature by approximately 12K doubles the leakage  (Figure 1) .  An easy way to measure current over such a large range of two to three decades is to charge and discharge a capacitor and measure the time or frequency Design by Andreas Grun

Microprocessor RS-232 Reset - This circuit allows a remote microprocessor to be reset by a controlling host over a remote RS-232 or similar protocol serial line.  With the use of a program loader on the remote host, a program may be downloaded and run.  This allows a target processor to run different code in RAM, thus getting rid of the need to burn multiple EPROMs.  The circuit is usually used for developing code on a target processor, but it can also be used for permanent applications where the target program lives on a host system's disk __ Designed by G. Forrest Cook

Micro-Spy with TTL - This circuit is old  (70's) but since the 74LS13 is from the regular 74xx series and easy to obtain, I decided to keep the circuit in place until components are no longer available.  Not much to tell here.  Performance is based on the 74LS13, a 'Dual 4-input Positive-Nand Schmitt Trigger'.  This circuit was experimental and so has no real purpose other than tinkering.   __ Designed by Tony van Roon  VA3AVR

Mini 3 digit display, an inexpensive digital voltmeter - We build a simple and inexpensive three digit display.  It's a voltmeter module but it has also general purpose digital IO pins.  You could use it as well to read a digital sensor and display the value.  It can be freely programmed, calibrated and even be programmed with a non linear formula.  It's a display where you can define the relation between the measured value and the displayed number.   __ Designed by Guido Socher

Mini dice-PIC10F200-based electronic dice - This project describes a PIC10F200-based electronic dice.  The reason I made this was that I had a small corner left over when ordering a panel with a couple of other PCBs and thought I would rather use the corner for something interesting than leave it unused, so I made a dice project.  The PCB is quite small, so it is hard to etch it yourself __ Designed by Collin Mitchell
