The block control project now incorporates “all” solid-state components controlled by an Arduino microcontroller. I refer to this updated article as “CTC Signals 2.0.” ...

Regardless of whether you love it or hate microcontroller documentation, you still have to negotiate it. In the first part of this article series, we looked at what is found in a microcontroller ...

Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) and Programmable Automation Controllers (PAC)are process and control implementations that cover everything from test labs and fabrication plants to military and ...

Data is converted from an internal diode temperature-sensing element to a digital format that can be directly interfaced to a PICmicro® microcontroller unit (MCU). The MCP9800 sensor offers many ...

Ironically relying on a block diagram for a commercial boost controller chip, which is probably the “right” tool for the job he put together the final circuit from a largish handful of components.
