CD-ROM Audio Adapter

Ever wanted to use an old CD-ROM drive as a CD player for audio playback? Now you can do it, with this nifty CD-ROM Playback Adapter. It can control one or two CD-ROM drives and has an infra-red remote control. A 16×2 line LCD screen provides track information and other data. WE have often been asked how to interface a hard drive or computer CD-ROM drive to a microcontroller

3-Channel UHF Rolling-Code Remote Control

This high-security 3-button UHF transmitter and receiver can be used for keyless entry into homes and commercial premises and for controlling garage doors and external lighting. Three separate outputs on the receiver can be used to activate various electrical devices such as a door strike, a motorised garage door and 230VAC lights. Up to 16 transmitters can be used with the one receiver so it's even suitable for a small business.

Bike Wheel POV Display

This project uses POV to produce a spectacular glowing display on a rotating push bike wheel as you ride along.So what is POV? It stands for ‘Persistence Of Vision’. It’s a term that’s applied to devices that rely on the human eye’s tendency to ‘see’ an image for a short time after it has disappeared.

Battery Monitor

The circuit uses an LPC2103 microcontroller connected to a 22-bit analogue-to-digital (A/D) converter to measure charge and discharge currents, battery voltage, charge status (or available capacity) and the instantaneous power being supplied to or drawn from the battery.

Simple Data Display

Thinking about incorporating an LCD in your next design? It isn’t too difficult, especially if all you’re looking to do is display your data as a set of numeric digits. Driving LCDs with Microchip and Atmel Micros.
