Arduino & Co Measure, Control, and Hack (eBook, PDF)

Clever Tricks with ATmega328 Pro Mini Boards

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

With a simple Pro Mini board and a few other components, projects that 20 or 30 years ago were unthinkable (or would have cost a small fortune) are realized easily and affordably in this book: From simple LED effects to a full battery charging and testing station that will put a rechargeable through its paces, there's something for everyone. All the projects are based on the ATmega328 microcontroller, which offers endless measuring, switching, and control options with its 20 input and output lines. For example, with a 7-segment display and a few resistors, you can build a voltmeter or an NTC-based thermometer. The Arduino platform offers the perfect development environment for programming this range of boards. Besides these very practical projects, the book also provides the necessary knowledge for you to create projects based on your own ideas. How to measure, and what? Which transistor is suitable for switching a certain load? When is it better to use an IC? How do you switch mains voltage? Even LilyPad-based battery-operated projects are discussed in detail, as well as many different motors, from simple DC motors to stepper motors. Sensors are another exciting topic: For example, a simple infrared receiver that can give disused remote controls a new lease on life controlling your home, and a tiny component that can actually measure the difference in air pressure between floor and table height!

Autorenporträt

Robert Sontheimer was immediately on board when the first home computers arrived in our living rooms some 40 years ago, with his ZX81 and C64. Back then, he converted a plotter into a scanner, among other quirky and original ideas, and today he uses Arduino Pro Minis to control entire CNC laser machines and has even invented a matching suction system: his "self-changing toilet paper filter." In his office, he has a magnet that's been levitating for years - controlled by a Pro Mini, of course. Just a regular freak.
