This is an interesting voltmeter project that display the measured voltage on a TV screen, in giant digits as well as with analog bar. It also records the maximum and minimum values of measurements. The project was built by Alberto Ricci Bitti and was published in the May 1999 issue of Elektor Electonics.

This device is interfaced with a Windows PC to display the measurements. The PC software is developed in VB 6. The function generator is based on a MAX038 IC that can provide sine, triangle or square wave, with adjustable duty cycle, from about 1 Hz to > 20 MHz.

The seven segment LEDs glow bright white and are multiplexed through PORTB pins, whereas the segments are driven by PORTA pins. The time is normally shown in hh.mm format but it can be switched to display mm.ss too. The time setting can be done with two push button switches.

Such devices include Bluetooth, WiFi, Zigbee, wireless USB, cordless phones, wireless mice and keyboards, etc. This project describes a wireless spectrum analyzer to examine the surrounding radio frequencies in 2.4 GHz band. The project is based on the Cypress’s CYWUSB6935 radio module. It is a complete radio module with PCB trace antenna and it operates in the unlicensed Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) band (2.4 GHz- 2.483 GHz). The radio module is interfaced with an Atmega8 microcontroller, and the recieved spectrum is

This project describes how to make a digital oscilloscope using an Atmega32 microcontroller and a graphics LCD. The GLCD used has 64*128 pixel dots (GDM12864A with KS0108 processor) and the AVR runs at 16 MHz using an external crystal oscillator. To enhance the speed further, it uses an external A/D converter chip, ADC0820. The sampling rate is 650K samples per second. The maximum range of frequency display is 60 KHz. The input impedance of the oscilloscope is about 1 M? and the voltage range of input signal is ± 0.01 – 250V. Read More
