Parallel Port PIC Programmer with ICP - This programmer is built for Free Windows Software called WinPicProg developed by Nigel Goodwin and uses a 74HC14 instead of 74LS05 used on other parallel port programmers.
Parallel port replaces embedded µC - 07/08/98 EDN-Design Ideas - Many applications use an embedded processor, which has certain needs: software, RAM, ROM, board space, and others. Frequently, another host computer, usually a PC, controls the application. Using a single CPLD, you can dispense with the embedded processor[File contains multiple circuits.

PC Serial Port Receiver CMOS
-16 Bit - This circuit was designed to control a 32 channel Christmas light show from the PC serial port. Originally designed with TTL logic, it has been simplified using CMOS
circuits to reduce component count. It is a fairly simple, reliable circuit that requires only 4 common CMOS
chips (for 8 outputs) , an optical isolator, and a few discrete components. __ Designed by Bill Bowden

PCB countdown timer - This is a countdown counter based on ATtiny2313, primary developed for my PCB exposure box, but it can be used for other purposes too. The counting range is between 1 and 90 minutes and it can be adjusted with up or down buttons (high and low in the pictures) . After the desired time is set, the countdown starts by pressing the start/stop button (on/off in the pictures) . By pressing the same button we can interrupt the counting at any time we want. __ AVR Projects Dim

Phoenix Programmer - This circuit will allow you to place a phone call on hold and if you wish to have them listen to music while they are on hold. The circuit operates as follows: The RED wire from the phone jack.
Phone Intercepter 1 - PIC Project This device connects between the phone line, an answering machine, and your phones. When a phone call comes in, the answering machine picks up the call and informs the caller to enter the access code to ring the phone or to wait for the beep and leave a message. If the correct code is entered, the answering machine is immediately disconnected while the device generates phone ringing tones on an external speaker. Picking up any phone causes the device to return to its initial state. __ Designed by Luhan Monat - Mesa Arizona
Phone Interceptor 2 - PIC Project This unit is an upgrade of the previous phone call interceptor. Instead of using an answering machine to provide the outgoing message and recording functions, it uses the ISD4004 (from Windbond Electronics) . The ISD4004 records up to 8 minutes of audio. I use the first several seconds for outgoing message prompts. The remaining time is used to record up to 30 messages, depending on message length. __ Designed by Luhan Monat - Mesa Arizona
