Looking for a simple circuit to control the light intensity of Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) or similar lighting sources? Here is an Arduino based circuit with three independent pulse width modulated ...

This article should acquaint you with basic Arduino programming and show you how to write programs that interact with objects in the real world. (A mandatory disclaimer: the last time I really studied ...

Learn how to easily adjust the contrast of a 1602 LCD display using Arduino. In this quick tutorial, I’ll show you a simple trick to control the contrast electronically, without relying solely on the ...

Makers, of course, use it to build many of the projects exhibited at the Maker Faire, for example. Arduino is a key tool to learn new things.

Last week I explained how to use a motion sensor to trigger an event with an Arduino. The event we triggered was a simple blinking of an LED. You can do a lot with a bunch of LEDs if you use your ...

Hi, I'm Bill. I'm a software developer with a passion for making and electronics. I do a lot of things and here is where I document my learning in order to be able to inspire other people to make ...

For breadboarding your next great Arduino-powered robot, maybe not so much. If you remember Circuits123 (or circuits.io), this is the same underlying technology.

When first learning about and building electronic circuits, the first things all of us come across are passive components such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors. These have ...

Delve into the nitty-gritty on advanced Arduino circuit boards and learn how to choose the right one for your projects when Arduino Uno doesn't fit the bill. This class also includes lectures on ...
