For a new project, I was, once again playing around with Kicad, the new version has received a lot of changes, improvements and additions again. For my current project I need a Raspberry Pi Zero W template that is not included in Kicad as standard. So time to make it …
In one of my previous posts (ATTiny85), I detailed an ATTiny85, or in my case the ATTiny85 SMD chip. These chips are al the same only the package is different. In this blog I will use a ATTiny that is breadboard friendly in combination with a I2C OLED. I2C OLED …
I have some Philips® hue lightning bulbs in my home. To operate these lights they need permanent power, wall switches have to be always on. So when I go to bed and turn off the wall switch the light will never shine again if the hue bridge try to switch …
Recently I was working on a new project here. For this project I need an Arduino Nano V3.0 Clone. After I had finished my code, I wanted to upload the code to the Arduino Nano with Arduino IDE. However, this did not work. After having a search on the internet, …
In my previous blog I installed Apache 2 on a raspberry Pi. To display more than simple HTML pages, you need to install and configure additional software such as a database server and scripting language PHP. For more convenience and security you can still arrange things like SSL. You do …
Through some researches I did online on how to minimize components use, I stumbled with using an ATTiny85 chip to be used in the project. And through some more researching, I decided to have my new project done using the ATTiny85 Chip. ATTiny85 Chip I bought these chips from Ali-Express. …
Handy, such a ready-to-use hosting package, but to have complete control over your web server, it’s best to roll up your sleeves yourself. For example, you can install your own Apache web server. The necessary components can be installed with the help of the command line. Also useful as a …
For an upcoming project I need and Arduino. Arduino is awesome. The boards are solid, the programming language and IDE are easy, and the community is awesome. But for a lot of electronics projects, an standard Arduino is overkill. If you’re just blinking a few LEDs, and reading a single …
This is one of my “shelf” projects that I want to make . I use a Arduino Nano to connect all the sensors to. Arduino is a very inexpensive platform and comes in different sizes and configuration you can choose it as per your need. I did this project as a …
To Keep track of the current time you need a seperate module, because the arduino can’t do this for you. Therfore I found a DS3231 this is an “Extremely Accurate I²C-Integrated RTC/TCXO/Crystal”. This Real Time Clock (RTC) is the most precise you can get in a small, low power package. …
