Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing great. In today's lecture, we will discuss one of the most advanced Embedded Microprocessors i.e. Raspberry Pi 5. At the time of this writing, Raspberry Pi 5 is the latest board designed in the Raspberry Pi series.
Raspberry Pi 5 is designed by a UK-based charity foundation named Raspberry Pi Foundation. Initially, these boards were designed for students and hobbyists but because of their compact design and advanced features, they became popular among embedded engineers, especially for IoT Systems. Raspberry Pi boards can be used for simple tasks i.e. word processing, web browsing etc., and in the complex fields of robotics, multimedia centers, home automation, etc.
In today's lecture, we will first discuss the basic features of the Raspberry Pi 5, its pinout, history, release date, price etc. in detail. After that, we will install the Raspbian Operating System on the Pi board and run it for the first time. So, let's get started:
As compared to its predecessor(i.e. Raspberry Pi 4), it has a better CPU, memory, graphic performance, connectivity etc. that make it more powerful and better in performance. Similar to other boards in this series, the Raspberry Pi 5 is a credit card-sized board with an affordable price and low power consumption. By looking deep into its features, experts comment that it has a significant upgrade over the previous versions.
Before going forward, let's have a look at the evolution of Raspberry Pi boards from 1 to 5:
The first Raspberry Pi board was introduced in 2012 for educational purposes to learn programming. This Pi board gained fame because of its simplicity, ease of use, and low cost. The first release was so successful that it sold out within hours, and according to reports, 40 million units were sold at that time. The huge success motivated the Raspberry Pi Foundation to design more models. Raspberry Pi 1 variants are as follows:
Raspberry Pi 1 Model A has a 700 MHz ARM11 CPU and a Broadcom BCM2835 system-on-chip (SoC). 256 MB of RAM is present on this board, but it is no longer in production.
Raspberry Pi 1 Model B has a 700 MHz ARM11 CPU and 512MB of RAM. It has a better performance as compared to Model A and has two USB ports. This model is also not in production.
Raspberry Pi 1 Model B+ is quite similar to its predecessor Model A in functionality, though it has an improved form factor.
It is a small and affordable board that has built-in WiFi and Bluetooth. It has 512 MB of RAM and an extended 40-pin GPIO header. It is an ideal option to use with a camera because of the CSI camera port.
Raspberry Pi was used extensively; therefore, Raspberry Pi presented these models. The Raspberry Pi 3 model B has a 1.2 GHz quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 CPU, and at that time, it was the ideal choice for IoT projects.
Moreover, the Model B+ had a slightly different structure and characteristics. It has a slightly more powerful processor. In this, the designers have taken more care of thermal management.
This is the most powerful board on the Raspberry Pi. It has a 1.5GHz quad-core ARM Cortex-A72 CPU and lower power consumption. The 8GB of RAM of this board makes it ideal for low-cost desktops, media centers, etc. This board has a 4K display and more RAM and processor speed, making it more useful for better desktop use. It is a better option for desktop replacement than the other predecessors of Raspberry Pi boards.
It is the smaller and more versatile version of the Raspberry Pi. It has a 1GHz ARM Cortex-A53 CPU and a more powerful structure. It has a micro USB and Bluetooth 4.1. The Mini HDMI port and micro USB On-the-Go (OTG) port are the prominent features of this board.
This version has the same specs as the previous one, but it has built-in WiFi and Bluetooth. This made it perfect for the projects of IoT and related fields.
This is a small board that is specially designed for small projects that use low power and require versatility. It has a 133 MHz dual-core ARM Cortex-M0+ CPU, and it is a microcontroller. It means it is not a full-fledged single-board computer but is designed for small projects and embedded system applications for low-level programming; therefore, it has only 264KB of RAM to accommodate the changes.
This is not the end of the list; there are multiple other boards, such as the Raspberry Pi 400 and Raspberry Pi Pico, that are also important to understand. The following table will show you the features and information about the Raspberry Pi boards:

The user can purchase these components from the Raspberry Pi Foundation or third-party retailers. Notice that all the components are not compatible with the Raspberry Pi 5; therefore, the users have to buy them. Here are the details of the essential components required for the Raspberry Pi 5.
The case of this board is similar to the previous case (the Raspberry Pi 4), but this time, the foundation has made a little change to elevate the thermal management and new usability. The case is integrated with a 2.79 (maximum) CFM fan. It has fluid dynamic bearings to provide better noise resistance and an extended lifetime. This fan is used to eliminate air through the 360-degree slot under the lid of the case. A four-pin JST connector is present on the board to connect it with the fan.
The size of the Raspberry Pi 5 is larger than other boards; therefore, the case is longer than the previous ones. Moreover, the retention feature of this case allows the user to insert the Raspberry Pi 5 board without removing the SD card.
Remove the top of the case to stack multiple cases or mount HATs on the top of the fan. For this, there will be a requirement for spacers and GPIO header extensions. These cases are available in different materials that have varying prices according to the material.
For users who do not want to have the case, an active cooler is designed to maintain the Raspberry Pi 5 temperature. This board is designed to handle a heavy workload, and if the user wishes to have it uncased, it is important to use the active cooler for the best performance. The board has two new mounting holes that place the active cooler in its fixed place. The connection of this fan is made with the same four-pin JST connector that we have mentioned before.
Both the fans (active cooler and case fan) are effective in maintaining the temperature and exhausting the extra heat from the board, but the active cooler has better performance.
The official power supply for the Raspberry Pi 5 is a 27W USB-C PD. These are designed to work with the charger that provides 5 volts of power at 3 amps of current. This makes it compatible with many power supplies, but it is always advisable to use a 27W USB-C PD. The experts have analysed that using the specified power supply not only provides the long life of the board but is also responsible for lower power consumption and high-speed results.
The Raspberry Pi 5 has a new MIPI connector to connect the cameras and other display devices. It's up to the user whether they want to use the third-party cameras here or the official camera launched by the Raspberry Pi. These are connected to the board through cables of different sizes and provide the versatility to use cameras with their boards.
Once you have all the components that I have mentioned before, you are ready to use your Raspberry Pi 5. Here are the steps to follow:
The Raspberry Pi provides consistent improvements in every model it represents, and this foundation has proven this once again through this latest model. The structure and simplicity of this board allow the designers to provide better functionalities at a low cost as compared to other types of boards.
The Raspberry Pi 5 PCIE 2.0 connector allows this board to connect with other hardware and transfer 500 MBs per second. Hence, this board can easily be connected with other hardware with the ribbon connector and there is no need to add the additional cable or port.

There were two groups performing the above activities. One of them could use two leading generative AI tools, while the other had to work without AI assistance. The study collected quantitative timing data, task surveys, code quality assessments, and participant feedback.
The results reveal that when properly utilized, this technology can markedly quicken numerous everyday coding jobs. IT specialists reduced code documentation time by almost 50% through collaboration with intelligent software. They were also about 35-45% faster at writing new code and about 20-30% faster at improving existing code.
Yet, McKinsey found that getting productivity gains requires thoughtful implementation. The time savings declined for demanding tasks, especially among junior developers. But with the right human oversight, code quality did not suffer – it even slightly improved in some areas like readability.
The study highlights the importance of generative AI for developers but sees is as a tool rather than a replacement. To ensure quality, prompt engineering skills are essential to guide AI properly.
While speedy code generation grabs headlines, McKinsey found major productivity gains across documentation, refactoring, and more. However, the technology is still most suitable for basic prompts, not complex coding challenges.
McKinsey's research indicates that generative AI in software development promises to significantly boost the productivity of IT professionals if thoughtfully leveraged. But realizing this potential will require investments in prompt engineering skills, use case selection, risk management, and more.
Let's focus on coding tasks where generative AI demonstrates particular promise. Smart tools excel at handling repetitive manual work – quickly generating boilerplate code so that developers can focus on higher-value challenges. AI also facilitates drafting new code, giving hints on how to overcome writer's block. For updating existing code, it can rapidly implement iterations when given proper prompts.
When software engineers encounter unfamiliar coding challenges, AI ensures quick upskilling. It can provide explanations for new concepts, compare different pieces of code, and deliver tutorials on frameworks to help engineers quickly grasp the required knowledge. This enhanced knowledge helps IT professionals to take on more complex assignments.
Four prime areas where smart technology is of great help are:
AI quickly creates standard code, functions, and documents, saving developers from boring work and making them much faster and more productive.
Starting new projects
Smart tools help get past the problem of not knowing where to start. They suggest code when you describe what you want to do. This makes you more creative and helps you work faster.
Simplifying changes
With specific modifications in mind, developers can use AI to improve existing code rapidly. This speeds up improvements.
Learning new things
When working on something new, AI offers tutorials, examples, and explanations to help you learn quickly. This makes you more productive on new projects.
In simple terms, generative AI in software development makes humans better at coding.
It’s hard to question the usefulness of generative AI for developers. However, human expertise is critical in several key areas. These are:
Error detection
Human programmers remain indispensable in scrutinizing code for bugs and errors. Researchers identified situations where smart tools gave inaccurate suggestions and even made critical mistakes. Thus, one expert had to input multiple prompts to rectify an erroneous assumption made by AI. Another programmer described the need to painstakingly guide the tool through the debugging process to secure coding accuracy.
Contextual insight
Ready-made smart tools possess coding knowledge, but they lack awareness of the unique requirements of specific businesses. Understanding such context is vital for qualitative work to ensure seamless integration with other software solutions, adherence to key standards, and the fulfillment of users’ requirements. Professional human developers furnish AI with contextual information. They specify how the code will be used, who the end-users are, the systems it will interact with, data considerations, and more.
Complex problem-solving
AI in software development excels at handling straightforward prompts, including code snippet optimization. However, when faced with intricate coding requirements, like merging multiple frameworks with distinct code logic, human professionals demonstrate their superiority. Generative technology becomes less useful as problems become more intricate and require a holistic approach.
So, high-quality coding still demands human intervention.
As the tech world keeps changing, there emerge many AI tools for developers. Let’s look at the most popular solutions:
ChatGPT
This no-cost application is a prime example of the vast potential of generative AI. While it may not be the ideal choice for coding-related assignments, it excels at generating boilerplate code, translating code into various languages, and automating routine tasks. It provides an excellent starting point for those looking to delve into the world of generative AI in software development.
GitHub Copilot
When talking about AI for developers, GitHub Copilot is one of the prime options. Powered by OpenAI Codex, which has undergone extensive training on diverse codebases, this tool provides precise code recommendations tailored to your project's requirements and stylistic preferences. It proves particularly useful for programming in languages such as Python, JavaScript, and more.
Google Bard
This application is compatible with 20 programming languages, capable of producing code based on your inputs and comments, elucidating code, and aiding in code modifications. Moreover, it comes at no cost.
Auto-GPT
This tool aims to make GPT work more independently. It breaks big tasks into smaller ones and uses multiple GPT instances to handle them. This can make it more efficient for complex projects.
Amazon CodeWhisperer
Amazon's tool recommends code by analyzing your prompts, comments, and project code. It excels when it comes to coding that involves AWS APIs such as EC2, Lambda, and S3.
Tabnine
Tabnine is an additional AI coding companion leveraging OpenAI Codex. It is good at auto-completing lines of code or even entire functions, and it seamlessly aligns with the code style of your project. What sets it apart is its compatibility with a wide array of applications.
CodeWP
This tool is highly effective for WordPress development, producing PHP, Javascript, and jQuery code that seamlessly integrates with WordPress, its associated plugins, and databases. Despite its relatively recent introduction, it receives regular updates to enhance its capabilities.
What the Diff
This tool streamlines the process of code review and documentation by examining disparities in code and producing concise summaries using simple language. It proves beneficial for keeping non-technical team members in the loop and enhancing documentation quality.
Text-to-image tools
Applications such as DALL-E 2, Stable Diffusion, and Midjourney are capable of producing images based on textual prompts, a valuable feature for crafting front-end design components and creating image placeholders.
Remember to be cautious, though. Many big companies have concerns about how GPT and similar tools handle sensitive data, and these tools aren't completely independent yet. While they boost productivity, they don't replace the role of human engineers, at least not right now.
Generative AI in software development has the immense potential to transform workflows and significantly boost productivity. However, realizing these benefits requires thoughtful implementation tailored to each organization's unique requirements.
Professionals involved in the development of custom solutions should emphasize ethical AI practices, continuous training, and the adoption of new approaches to smart technology. Implementing robust human oversight mechanisms is crucial. When human developers and AI tools work together diligently, we can boost productivity and reduce risks. The future looks good for those who use generative AI carefully and responsibly.

I hope you found this article useful. The Arduino library for Proteus V3.0 is more stylish, error-free, and easy to use. I have created other libraries, such as the Raspberry Pi 4, that are useful for embedded engineers. Feel free to ask any questions if you have any confusion.
Casinos, known for their luxury and excitement, have always drawn our curiosity towards a special group of gamblers who wager sums larger than most people earn in a month or even a year. What motivates these high rollers? What makes them take such enormous risks at the table? In this exploration of their world, we aim to uncover the secrets behind their winning mindset, and perhaps find inspiration that can be applied to our own endeavors.
In the casino industry, there are individuals known as high rollers or "whales" who are willing to place large bets on a single wager. But what motivates them? It's not solely about the money; it's also about the thrill of adrenaline, a genuine love for the game, and at times, the desire for recognition. Consider this: in life, isn't it often more than just reaching our goals? It's about embracing the journey, cherishing experiences, and having stories to share.
Every high roller has their game of choice. For instance, many opt for games like roulette online , a live casino game that not only offers excitement but also requires a combination of skill and luck. Why roulette? It's straightforward yet unpredictable. A single spin can change one's fortune. And isn’t unpredictability what makes life so interesting?
Have you ever seen a player getting VIP treatment at a casino? That's likely a high roller. Casinos pull out all the stops to attract these players, offering perks like free suites and exclusive gambling tables. Wondering why? It's because these gamblers bring in substantial revenue. This is similar to how airlines have first-class cabins—a small section, but it contributes significantly to their profits.
Taking risks can lead to great rewards, but the appeal of high stakes doesn't always stem from the desire to win. It's about the excitement of the game itself, the close calls, and the strategic thinking involved. Have you ever found yourself in a situation where taking a risk felt like the right move, even if it went against logic? High rollers thrive on these moments. And while they may experience losses along the way, as the old saying goes: "You win some; you lose some." It's all part of the game.
There are valuable lessons that we can learn from individuals who are known for taking risks and making big bets, beyond just their reputation for being high rollers. It's not just about their willingness to take risks, but also about adopting the right mindset and approach. This includes taking calculated risks, fully understanding the potential consequences, and having a genuine passion for what they do. These principles are applicable not only to entrepreneurs or artists but to anyone in any profession. It's about accepting the circumstances and challenges that life presents and tackling them with strategic thinking and unwavering determination. By embracing these qualities, we can navigate through the ups and downs of life and achieve success in our chosen endeavors.
So, what can we learn from the world of high rollers? It's not just about fancy experiences and luxury. It's about having a certain attitude - being willing to take risks, strategize, and pursue your passions. Have you ever taken a leap of faith that ended up paying off? Or perhaps had a close call that taught you an important lesson? Life, much like a casino, is full of unpredictability. But with the right mindset, a well-thought-out plan, and maybe just a bit of luck, you have the potential to come out on top. So are you ready to embrace your inner high roller?
Hi readers! I hope you are having a creative day. Today, I am sharing the list of the top embedded proteus libraries in V1.0 especially designed for engineering students. Till now, you have seen blogs on different projects, components, libraries, and simulations. Yet, I am sharing the list of the first versions of these embedded libraries that will help the students throughout multiple projects. These libraries are highly useful in multiple domains of engineering, and if you don’t know how to download the new libraries , then you must see the link provided.
This is the list of all new proteus libraries for engineering students . The zip files are present in the link to the related manual, which has details on how to download, install, and use these libraries. Now, let’s start learning about these libraries.

The involvement of microcontrollers like Arduino makes the embedded system more versatile and easy to use. Users can now install the Arduino library for Proteus and design multiple types of embedded system projects. The zip file of the Arduino library contains multiple Arduino versions. Here is the list of Arduino boards designed by TEP:
The Arduino has developed another class of microcontroller named Geniuno that is sold under the umbrella of Genuino Labs. These are Arduino-compatible microcontrollers and have more affordable working mechanisms. These can be used with the Arduino software and hardware platforms and have a variety of models, as you can see in the below link:
Once installed successfully, you can access the following boards:
The embedded system libraries are highly useful for engineering students for projects related to the actuation, display, sensing, and communication of data. These libraries act like real components and help the students design real-time projects easily. Here is a list of the embedded libraries that you can download instantly:
There are multiple options to present the output of a circuit in an embedded system, but among these, an LCD is the most presentable and easy to understand. Proteus has multiple built-in libraries, but this LCD library provides the users with the best experience because it is easy to use and its pinouts are clean and easy to design. In the zip file, there are two versions of LCDs:
Both of these are extensively used in embedded circuits. Here is the download link for the new LCD:
This library can be easily programmed with Arduino code and hardware for embedded system projects. It is an alphanumeric LCD; therefore, it can show the numbers and alphabets based on the programming in the Arduino software.
The Global Positioning System library is a useful component that provides versatility in embedded systems. Real-time GPS systems use satellites in space to provide information about the position of a particular object. In Proteus, the GPS allows the user to design projects, such as testing the performance of real GPS-based projects or simulating projects where the position of an object like a vehicle or a person is to be identified. Here is the link to download and install the GPS library:
The design of this GPS system resembles the real GPS module. This library provides the system with two pins:
When the circuit is designed and the simulation starts, the module starts sending the NMEA data to the TX pin. At this moment, this data can be seen in the virtual environment connected to the GPS module. This is just a simulation module, so it does not provide clear longitude and latitude values. Therefore, there are some dummy values, but these are helpful to test the simulations.
The GSM module is used for communication between the devices within the GSM network. This library allows users to work on projects related to the positioning and communication between the devices. The working of this GSM module is controlled with the help of Arduino software, where it can be programmed according to the requirements. The Arduino has the IDE manager library to be programmed with this module. Here is the download link for this:
This library is designed in three colors and the user can choose any one or more than one according to the complexity of the project.
It is another communication module that is used for wireless communication and configuration. This is a trending topic for engineering projects; therefore, I have designed it. This does not work exactly like the real XBee, but it helps a lot to provide the basic functioning in the simulation. Here is the link to download this library:
This has two pins, TX and RX, and these are used to send and receive the data within XBee. The RX is usually connected to the output device, or Arduino, according to the circuit.
The Bluetooth library has been one of the most demanding components of embedded systems for years; therefore, I have designed this to make it easy for students to use in Proteus. These modules are used for Bluetooth connectivity. This is the zip file for the module:
This has two modules of Bluetooth, which are:
Both of these have a similar structure, but their work is a little bit different. These modules have a limited range; therefore, they do not work well where communication is required for long distances.
This library provides the functionality of a real-time clock (RTC). it is used in projects where the current time is required, so it is a clock in the circuit that can be programmed once and used throughout the project implementation. This is the download link for the zip file in this library:
Proteus has such libraries by default, but I have designed this library because it is more suitable for embedded projects and has different ways of working. The design is very similar to the real DS1307 library as it has a total of seven pins and a bright red colour with details on it. Out of these seven pins, X1 and X2 are used to add the crystal oscillator. This is used with devices like Arduino and PIC controllers.
The L298 motor driver is designed to accept standard TTL logic levels and to drive the inductive loads. It is a dual full bridge driver that can bear high voltage and high current. It can drive relays, solenoids, stepping motors, etc.
The module has been designed with bright colours and has small details just like the real driver. It is designed to control two motors at a time just like the real module. The link to download the zip file is given here:
L298 Motor Driver Library for Proteus
Two sets of output pins are on the left and right sides used to connect the motors, while the input pins are at the lower right corner. Some other pins are also there to connect this module to the power source.
The main purpose of the SIM900D module is to control the GSM module with the help of a microcontroller so make sure you install all of these. This library has multiple functions that help provide the functionality of sending and receiving SMS messages, setting up the calls, and managing the GPRS data. Here is the link to install and use the SIM900D:
It is relatively more complex than other experiments and requires more information about the component to work properly.
The C945 is a transistor library and as you expect, it has three legs named emitter, collector, and base. The first letters of these pins are mentioned on the module, and one must know it is an NPN transistor. It is a general-purpose transistor and is the main component of several electronic components. The installation of this module can be done through the following link:
The simplest way to see the workings of this transistor is through the simplest output devices, such as an oscilloscope or LED.
It is a safety component used with the microcontrollers and prevents the burning of the microcontroller because of the back EMF. It is an optocoupler/optoisolator that is used for the isolation of signals in electronic circuits. It is an important safety component of multiple embedded systems. Here is the download source for this library:
Just like the real PC817, the library has four pins, but to indicate the difference and directions of the pins, I have shown the symbols, so you will see the design is different from the real PC817.
Embedded sensors are devices that are used to interact with the physical world by sensing changes in the environment. The students can download multiple types of proteus sensors that are useful for creative engineering projects. These libraries have multiple pins; one is a TestPin through which the user can stimulate the sensor. Some of these are digital sensors, and some are analogue. We have made digital and analogue versions of sensors to provide more versatility in the student’s projects. These are the Version 1.0 of all the sensors:
The ultrasonic sensor is a device that measures distance with the help of sound waves. These send the sound waves in a particular direction and then measure the time it takes for them to strike any object, which is then reflected. The module is designed on the same principles. It is an analogue sensor, and usually, it is controlled with the help of a microcontroller. Here is the download and installation process:
This library allows the students to create more creative projects because it can be used for projects like proximity detection, distance measurement, liquid level measurements, etc.
Now we are moving towards the specialized sensors particularly important for the Internet of Things (IoT) projects. The flame sensor is a basic need for almost every project of home automation. This sensor provides the signal at the output when it senses the flame. As a result, it can alarm the users, and it may be lifesaving. With the help of this library, it is now possible to test the simulation of such projects in Proteus. Here is the link to download it:
During the simulation of the project, the indication of flame is done with the testPin and the sensor responds according to the signals at this testPin.
This sensor detects the vibration and is useful in projects like security management because any vibration in a particular object can be sensed well. These are also used with mechanical products such as heavy machines because the continuous vibration can cause errors in performance or create other issues. This is the link to get this library:
It is a digital sensor, and as soon as the input of this sensor is turned HIGH, it indicates the presence of the sensor.
The capacitive touch sensor is named so because it can detect the presence of the human finger on an object by sensing the change in the capacitance of the sensor. We know that capacitance is the measure of the ability to save charges, and when the finger touches the sensor, the values of the capacitance change, and as a result, the sensor indicates this change. Here is the link to get this library:
Capacitive Touch Sensor Library
I have made this digital sensor because, in real time, the capacitive sensor is very sensitive and can detect a slight change in the capacitance when the user touches it.
The purpose of these libraries is to enhance creativity and allow students to reach more domains. This is an important sensor in medical science because it counts the heartbeat of humans and provides the results. The starting and ending points of the heartbeat testing are controlled with the help of digital input. Here is the download and install link:
The output of this heartbeat sensor can be shown with the help of an LCD or other suitable output devices. Students can use this output in different components of the projects. As a result, the output of the sensor may be used to stimulate other components such as when the heartbeat is high. The results are sent to the user or a document that displays the preventive measures.
This is another ideal sensor library for projects like the automation of places. This module senses the presence of harmful gases in the surroundings and is one of the most important sensors for safe living standards. These are used in homes, offices, industries, and other places where there is a risk of gas leakage so they may indicate the danger. This library has a simple structure with all the basic pinouts. Here is the way to download and install the library.
I have designed eight sensors for gases ranging from MQ2 to MQ9 because I have followed real gas sensors. The design and working of each of them resemble those of real sensors, as you can see the colour and components are the same.
This library is particularly suitable for engineering students who have to create projects related to the magnetic field. This library is used to detect the presence of magnetic fields in the surrounding area. Magnetic fields affect the working of sensitive components; therefore, this library can save the whole circuit in some cases. To install this library, follow the link below:
Just like the real magnetic reed switch, it has two versions with red and blue colours. The real magnetic reeds have a difference in the number of pins, but I have designed them to work perfectly in the simulation and provided all the necessary features.
The working principle of an infrared sensor is similar to that of an ultrasonic sensor, but here, infrared waves are used to detect any obstacle or object in the way of these waves. A transmitter and a receiver are used in the structure of these sensors. This is a digital library; therefore, there is no need to attach the Arduino to test the basic workings of this library. Check the details of the infrared library through the link given below:
This sensor can be used in various projects with a microcontroller because the coding process allows the student to use the output of this sensor for multiple processes.
This is another sensor that uses the waves to measure the distance to the presence of the object at a particular distance. The transmitter sends the infrared radiations to a certain direction and when these strike an object, these reflect to the receiver and it measures the distance between the object and itself through multiple calculations. Here is the link to approach this sensor:
I have designed the same sensor in two colours and tried to make it easy to use. This is the digital sensor; therefore, the emission of infrared rays and their receiving time are controlled by the TestPin.
This is another infrared sensor that does not simply sense the distance; it measures the movement. The infrared waves are emitted from the sensor when it touches the object; it remembers the values and emits the waves again. In this way, the multiple emissions of the waves and their reflected angles are measured and compared. As a result, it can measure the change in the position of the same objects. Here is the download and install process:
This is an important sensor that can be used in robotic line followers, security systems, gesture recognition, etc.
The automation of places like homes, agriculture, and security systems are important Internet of Things( IoT) projects, and this is one of the most basic sensors in all the projects related to the same princess. This is a digital sensor and can detect the presence or absence of rain. Here is the link to fetch this sensor:
The process to use this sensor in the projects is simple and easy, and students wanted to use it in their projects; therefore, I created this to provide them with more options in the Proteus simulation.
The sound sensor is one of the most basic sensors in embedded systems and other branches of engineering that catches sound signals and converts them into electrical signals. As a result, these electrical signals are then presented as the output of the sensor. Here is the link to download and install this library:
This sensor may be part of many interesting and trending engineering projects such as voice recognition, sound level measurement, robotics, etc.
This is the most basic sensor of the IoT projects related to agriculture, landscape, and related fields. This sensor measures the amount of water in the soil and indicates the values. The basic principle of working with this sensor is to measure the electrical conductivity of the soil because water is the best electrical conductor. As a result, it provides information about the amount of water in the soil. Here is the link to get this sensor:
There are multiple types of such sensors, and the one I designed has the exact design of a soil resistance measurement. It has two probes and is an analogue sensor; therefore, it provides the exact amount of moisture in the soil.
Just like the digital vibration sensor, this version also measures the vibration in an object, but I have tried to provide a more versatile working method; therefore, I made this analogue vibration sensor. The working of an analog vibration sensor is a little bit complex but it can be used with great versatility. Have a look at the installation process for this sensor:
Projects like musical systems, game controllers, robotics, and other such projects influence vibration. Students can easily design the limits of values using the microcontroller.
The water sensor is the basic sensor in different engineering projects. Water has the best electrical conductivity, and this sensor works by measuring the electrical conductivity of the water. As a result, it provides the amount of water in a tank or any other container.
Students are using this sensor in different creative projects such as water leakage detection, pool level monitoring, automatic irrigation systems, etc.
It is the passive infrared sensor that detects the infrared radiation around it. The main job of this sensor is to sense the IR and then convert these signals into voltage. I have designed the digital PIR sensor as well, but this sensor has more functionalities. The following is the link to download and install this library:
It has applications in different fields and projects like security systems, motion detection systems, and multiple medical devices.
The flex sensor is used to measure the bend of an object and is useful in multiple fields of mechanical engineering. Another use of this sensor is in the field of robotics where it is used with multiple components and provides basic information about the bend. You can download and install it from the link below:
This is a digital library, and it simply checks for the presence of a bend in an object containing this sensor. The checking of the basic workings of this sensor does not require a microcontroller, but a simple LED is enough.
The analogue flex sensor is the second version I have just discussed. This can measure the values of a bend of the component, and it is important information in multiple projects. As a result, this sensor has great scope in multiple fields. Download and install this through the link below:
Just like other analogue sensors, students can provide the limits of the flex values and automate the project to work on a particular value of flex.
This sensor is used to measure the magnetic fields around the sensor. For this, it uses the Hall effect and successfully measures the density of the magnetic field. The basic sensor in this regard is KY-024 and it is used in multiple types of sensors related to the detection and measurement of the magnetic field. I have used the same sensor in this design; you can see it in the link given below:
Magnetic Hall Effect Sensor(KY-024) Library
This library is present in four different colors but the design and other specifications are the same.
This library is particularly useful for embedded systems and robotic projects that measure the total current flowing through the circuit. The electrical and electronic circuits use this module in their projects but require the module in Proteus to test the possibilities. Therefore, I have designed this library, and here is the link to use it in the Proteus simulations:
The drift linear hall sensor in the real current sensor WCS1600 allows it to provide precise and accurate results. In this sensor, I have used the same design and worked to provide the best output.
The chemical properties of the liquid are important to know when dealing with liquid experiments. Therefore, I decided to create a pH level sensor in Proteus to provide the chance to enhance the domain of projects for engineering students. As it is a simulation, the input will be provided by the user, but this can be designed as a project to show the results on the output device. Here is the download and installation process for this library:
This file has four versions of the pH levels with different colours.

Download the zip file and follow the procedure mentioned in these articles to use Arduino in the simulations.
Sensors are the most important components to make the embedded project versatile. Real-time sensors are used to detect changes in the environment and provide the output in different forms. Just like the first version of these sensors, there are multiple pins to connect the sensor to the circuit. The most important one is the TestPin which is used to make changes to the sensors. Here is a list of some sensors with a brief description of each:
The sound detector is used to detect any kind of sound frequency and then convert it into electricity. The real-time sound detector has a mic that converts the vibrations of the sound into electrical signals. These signals go through the amplification process, and as a result, these sounds are detected. In proteus, the presence of the sound or the change in the surrounding frequency is indicated by changing the values on the input pin of the detector. Following is the link to download the sound detector library:
Sound Detector Library for Proteus V2.0
Embedded systems have applications in all fields, and those who want to create projects in the medical field can use the heartbeat sensor in the simulation to provide versatility and uniqueness to their projects.

This sensor library has four sensors that are the same in functionality but have different colours to make them attractive.
Analog PIR Sensor Library for Proteus
The properties of all these sensors can be changed through the property panel. Just like all other analogue sensors, the variable resistor is used at the input pin to change the values of the sensor and get the required output.
The vibration sensor detects the vibration of an object by sensing the change in mechanical energy. The real-time vibration sensors convert the change in mechanical energy into electrical energy that is fed into any type of indicator, such as light or sound. The sensor in the proteus is an analogue sensor that closely resembles, in design, the real vibration sensor. In vibration sensor V2.0, there are four types of designs available for the students. Here is the download link for the zip file:
Vibration Sensor Library for Proteus V2.0
The components in each sensor are the same, but the base and capacitor colours are changed.
There are multiple ways to display the results, and Proteus and the LCDs are the easiest and most effective ways to do so. This version of LCD resembles the real LCD used in embedded projects. The pinouts are more clean, and the size and display are better than any other LCD libraries in Proteus. This version has two sizes of LCD, which are:
As a result, when students use it in their simulation, they are able to get the required output with minimum effort. Here is the link to the description for downloading and using the LCD V2.0 in Proteus.
The installation process for this library is the same as it was for the LCD library V1.0.
Next on the list is the solar panel library, which helps the students work on more creative projects with renewable energy sources. The solar panel V2.0 has a better design and is easier to design. The students have to simply download the zip file, follow the instructions given in the following link, and connect it to the project.
Solar Panel Library for Proteus V2.0
There are two designs for the solar panel in this version. Both of these work alike, but students can choose the best design according to their circuit. By default, both of these work on 12V because it is standard, but the user can change the voltage values from the properties panel.
The embedded system is an important field in engineering, and we have designed the second version of some proteus libraries. These libraries are extremely useful in testing the designed simulations related to multiple fields. The Arduino, solar panel, LCS, and different sensors are loved by the students, and we have made these versions with better design and results. I hope you like it. Stay with us for more useful libraries.
