This PIC16F877A microcontroller-based quiz controller, designed for up to six players or teams, is suitable for school and college quiz competitions. It is similar to a fastest-finger-first system in which the player who presses the button first gets the...
Today, there are many gadgets available with GPS technology. GPS stands for ‘global positioning system.’ It provides the data corresponding to the position of the GPS receiver itself on international-standard latitude-longitude basis, in addition to the standard coordinated universal...
RS232 signals cover a much longer distance than standard TTL and I2C signals. Also, RS232 signals have better noise immunity. RS232 is a well-known standard supported by many popular integrated circuits (ICs) and therefore is still widely used. Sometimes...
Despite being more expensive than standard permanent outdoor toilets, portable toilets (Fig. 1) have several significant benefits as these are self-contained and can be placed almost anywhere. These days portable toilets are frequently seen at outdoor areas like construction...
Fastest finger first system are used in school, college and TV contests. The team which presses their push-button switch first is entitled to answer the query. When two or more teams press their push-buttons within a very small time...
We often face problem while reading the values of ICs and miniature SMD components, detecting cracks or shorts in tracks in a PCB, or reading a finely-graduated vernier scale. Here is a solution to the problem in the form...
Presented here is a simple circuit for switching your CCTV camera outputs sequentially.It switches four video and audio channels sequentially, one at a time.
Circuit and working
Fig. 1 shows the circuit diagram of the four-channel video and audio sequencer. It...
Solar streetlights can be easily integrated with a dusk-dawn controller by simply employing a pnp transistor and a few resistors where the solar panel itself works as the sensor. But what about other lighting sources that do not employ...
Federal and international regulations require boats to carry lights between sunset and sunrise and during conditions of restricted visibility. The number and colours of the lights vary with the size of the vessel.
Many commercial vessels carry special lights that...
In most electronic systems, it is necessary to provide information in the visual form for a convenient user interface. The most commonly used displays in electronic systems are LED, LCD and TFT. Amongst these, an LCD display is the...
