The system presented in this application note implements a simple digital thermometer that includes a built-in LCD and RS-485 communicate ion Port. It is designed around Atmel’s AT89C2051 processor, a digital thermometer/thermostat from Dallas Semiconductor, a small 8 X 2 LED backlit LCD, and an RS485 line interface. The system, shown in Figure, can be [...]
Here’s a alarm clock circuit based on PIC Controlled. Two circuit boards put together a simple PIC based design comprising of two interlinked vero-board cards. The larger of the two circuit boards holds the 5V power regulator, the display processor (a PIC 16F74), the real time clock (Dallas DS1307), 3V backup battery and buzzer. See [...]
