Machine movements are generally made either by pneumatic valves or by
electro-magnetic motors. Omitting the pneumatics for now, the
electro-magnetic motors generally further divide to alternating-current or
AC in short and direct-current, or DC in short. So far so good.
Anyway, A…
When the need to drive a stepper motor arises, one can turn to the
microcontroller. For the task, I am currently using
M-Duino AR38+
and I have already written something about it a few days back, link
here.
Note that an Arduino based controller is suitable for the task because it…
When wiring the Arduino based Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) from
Industrial Shields, I have become
stuck for a little bit due to trouble understanding how to enable the
outputs.
Currently using their
Ethernet range
based on Arduino Mega 2560. Its internals seem to be quite …
The AT24C32 EEPROM that comes with the DS3132 RTC module has 32kbit of
space, meaning it can store 4096 bytes or 4096 characters when using an
8-bit character encoding like ASCII.
To save some useful data on it, we need to divide it into equal blocks that
would contain the data. …
After a previous few
days of struggling to
get the Arduino Pro Micro 3.3V version to
get to sleep and wakeup I've
finally had an epiphany and got the desired result to surface up. It was
made possible by the massive amount of documented work I have finally
stumbled upon. Links ar…
