How to Build a Robot - Design and Schematic

Part one of a series of articles on building a robot that can follow lines or walls and avoid obstacles!


An ATMega328-based Data Acquisition System

An ATMega328-based Data Acquisition System

In this article I will show you how to use the internal EEPROM of an ATMega 328P microcontroller. I will use a USB-to-serial converter, and an LM35 temperature sensor. I will also give you some tips and tricks when designing a PCB.


Your Guide to Home PCB Fabrication

Your Guide to Home PCB Fabrication

Use a program like Kicad and a few cheap or common supplies to fabricate your own PCBs at home. Breadboarding is fine for testing a circuit, but it never looks good to have fifty wires coming out of a circuit.


Getting Started with PSoC®

Getting Started with PSoC®

Getting started with PSoC®, the Programmable-System-on-Chip by Cypress Semiconductor for developing and testing embedded systems.


Build a Thermocouple Amplifier and Custom KiCad Libraries

Build a Thermocouple Amplifier and Custom KiCad Libraries

Building on skills developed in the introductory KiCad tutorial, this article will focus on creating custom parts and adding them to a local library, expanding the default libraries to include community repositories, and contributing parts back into the open source ecosystem. The end product will be a MAX31855 K-type thermocouple amplifier which can be used for a huge array of temperature sensing projects.
