The simple circuit interfaces a 1-Wire temperature sensor (DS18S20) to a Cypress microcontroller (CYBC26443). But the technique can be extended to any other 1-Wire device with little modification ...

Ultra simple circuit of the tilt sensor alarm presented here can be fabricated using readily available inexpensive components. The circuit is a true transistor based design. Home made Tilt sensor for ...

He had the idea to create a simple tilt sensor based circuit that would light whatever LED was at the bottom. He’s using an Analog Devices ADXL202E accelerometer chip to sense tilt and an ...

It doesn’t have to be that complicated, though, as this simple two-wire ... a power supply and decoder circuit, which sends 9 volts up the line to power the PIC sensor. The decoder is based ...

MIT chemists have devised a new way to wirelessly detect hazardous gases and environmental pollutants, using a simple sensor that can ... an electric current in the circuit on the tag.

General purpose circuit of the simple pressure sensor alarm is built around a couple of readily available cheap components. Working of this circuit is straight forward and self-explanatory. When the ...

To help designers of such systems, this circuit accurately measures ambient light intensity over four decades of measurement. The design is highly cost effective and, with the sensor mounted in a ...

The act of turning on your PC is a simple one, but pressing the power button isn't the only way to do it. In fact, I would argue the power button is archaic, and there are significantly more ...

The resulting optoelectronic sensor incorporates eight photosensitive "memtransistors" which are made out of a layer of molybdenum disulfide, and laid out in the form of a circuit. It measures ...

But this conundrum could soon change with a new, origami-inspired paper sensor that can detect diseases without the need for electricity or even specialized equipment. All it takes is a special ...
