Phone recorder - How many times have you wished that you recorder your recent telephone conversation? I have, many many times.  So I finally decided to make this happen by using PC and a piece of hardware  (powered from USB) to record audio from phone line to MP3

Phone Screener with Voice - 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

Jones

PIC based WWVB clock - There are many DIY versions of WWVB clock designs available on the web.  Commercial atomic clocks are inexpensive and widely available, but I wanted to try my hand at designing one to gain insight into WWVB reception and to __ Designed by Bruce Craig

PIC Caller ID - Caller ID circuit displays name and a telephone number of the person that is calling you.  Information is decoded using MT8870 DTMF decoder and PIC16F628 microchip and is displayed on 2x16 LCD.  

PIC Clock - Last summer vacation, I had an opportunity to be in dad's hobby workshop and decided to have a look at my pending projects.   (I am no longer a science student but now in School of Fashion Technology for my BS Degree) I realized that I had a lot of parts in boxes that I ordered and must be utilized!! I decided to complete one more project as all that was to be done was to design a board. __ Designed by Nina Gajjar

PIC Debugging routine reads out binary numbers - 12/07/00 EDN-Design Ideas - The “burn and learn” method of firmware development excludes an in-circuit emulator and a serial port.   With this method, it is common practice to use spare I/O pins on a mC as a debugging aid.  By strategically placing instructions to set and clear these I/O pins in the codePDF contains multiple circuits, scroll to find this circuit Design by Brad Peeters, Theta Engineering Inc, Costa Mesa, CA

PIC Die - Built using a PIC16F84, about 4 hours worth of code and a few bits on a breadboard.  This was the first time I've worked with PIC's so it was a learning exercise.  I started with the 'Hello World' microcontroller equivalent i.  e.  Blinking LED, then tried the 'Knight Rider' sequencing LEDs, and then

PIC diode Tester - This is a simple use of the PIC 16F84 about a diode tester.   __ Designed by Manolis Xenias

PIC Dual Temperature Meter - Dual PIC Temperature meter that allows to measure temperature in two different locations at the same time.  Never before such a useful and powerful circuit could be built with so little components and yet provide endless possibilities.  This is all possible thanks to the use of PIC16F628 microcontroller and 2x16 character LCD display that act like a small computer which can be customizable thanks to upgradeable hex firmware.  

PIC Freq Meter/ Voltmeter - Measurement of the frequency up to 50MHz Measurement of power supply voltage in the range of 0.0 V, 25.5 V Measurement of the input voltage at two analog inputs, simultaneously displayed as bar graph  (PWR/SWR or S) indicator.  The input sensitivity could be chosen between 0.25V, 0.5V, 1.0V and 2.0V for maximum bar graph indication.  This is a successor of the PIC16C71 4-digit LED f-counter & V-meter.  

PIC Fun & Games - Want to get in to microcontrollers? Here's an easy, low-cost way.__ SiliconChip

PIC In-Circuit Programming Add-on - Does your PIC programmer have provision for in-circuit programming? Some such as Microchip's PICSTART Plus don't but you can add this useful function to your programmer by building a simple adaptor!__ SiliconChip

PIC IR/ RF Remote Control - This is a general purpose remote control project with using programmable PIC microcontrollers  (PIC16F628, PIC16F630, PIC16F684) .  Schematics are shown for using infrared  (IR) or radio  (RF) media.  If you are not familiar with microcontroller programming, you can use fixed encoder and decoder integrated circuits instead.  Well-known such IC-s are Holtek HT-12D, HT-12E and Motorola MC145026, MC145027, MC145028.  

PIC Logic Probe with Pulser - This project is a combinationLogic Probe and Logic Pulser.  It is capable of testing all sorts of digital and microcomputer projects.  You will find it extremely handy when designing a project as the golden rule is totest everything in steps and stages during the design-and-construction process.  If you are not sure how a Logic Probe or Pulser works __ Designed by Prepared Colin Mitchell

PIC Micro LED Projects - Here is a neat PIC Project  that I created using the 16F84 chip and a neat little bi-color LED from Radio Shack.  The LED can be red or green depending on the bias of the diode.  By using two of the PORT B pins, I can control the bias of the LED.  If the LED is on PORT B, Pin 0 and Pin 1, I can set Pin 0 HIGH and Pin 1 LOW, this would make __ Designed by Jason KE4NYV from Roanoke, Virginia

PIC Micro Multiple Servo Motor Interface - Using a modified version of the last program, we can control as many servomotors as we have I/O lines on port B.  In the next listing, we will control two servos in the same manner as we controlled a single servo in the previous program.  The circuit is shown in figure 4  (below) .
