In today's post, I am gonna share a new Arduino Library for Seven Segment Display. In my recent project, I got a chance to work on seven segment displays, I have worked on them using PIC microcontroller but haven't got a chance to use them with Arduino. So, now as usual when I started working on them, I started searching for Arduino Library but I kind of got disappointed after getting quite heavy libraries for seven segments, and after a lot of search I thought of designing my own Arduino library for seven segment display, which I am gonna share in this post. :)
It's not very advanced library as we know seven segment displays are not too complex, so its quite simple and using it you can quite easily display any numerical digit on the seven segment ...
Hello friends, hope you all are having fun and enjoying life. In today's post we are gonna see how to send data to serial port in MATLAB. Its a requested tutorial, asked by a follower and after giving him the code, I thought to share it on our blog so that others could also get benefit from it. We have discussed serial port many times and have seen how to communicate with it using different software but we haven't yet discussed how to send data to serial port in MATLAB. So, in today's post I am gonna share the complete code for sending data to serial port in MATLAB.
Serial port is most common way of communication, we can send or receive data using serial port. Normally, in engineering projects there's a need to send or receive data from microcontr ...
Hello everyone, in today's post we are gonna have a look at how to interface temperature sensor Dallas 18B20 with Arduino. There are many temperature sensors available in market like LM35, DHT11 etc but personally I like Dallas18B20 most of all, as it gives the most accurate result up to four decimal points. It operates on single wire and sends all data through this wire. Another advantage of this wire is you can interface multiple sensors with a single data line. You should also have a look at How to use 18B20 in Proteus ISIS.
In today's post, we are gonna get value from this sensor and then print it over the Serial Terminal as well as LCD. We will get the values in degree centigrade. Its not much difficult to interface 18B20 with arduino and als ...
Hello friends, hope you are having fun and enjoying life. Today, I am gonna post about interfacing of multiple Ultrasonic sensor with Arduino. In the previous post, we have seen Interfacing of Ultrasonic Sensor With Arduino and in this post I have interfaced single ultrasonic sensor but in projects especially related to robotics, we have to interface multiple ultrasonic sensors. For example you have an obstacle detection robot, now in order to detect obstacle in front of robot you have to place once sensor on the front side but now you can't detect any object present on left or right side of your robot, so you have to place two sensors one on the left side of robot and one on the right side so in this project you need to use total three ultrasonic ...
Today, we are gonna have a look on How to Interface Ultrasonic Sensor with Arduino. Few days ago, I have posted a complete tutorial on How to Use Ultrasonic Sensor Library in Proteus and later I have posted different examples on How to Simulate Ultrasonic Sensor in Proteus. Those posts were about Proteus Simulations and weren't about hardware interfacing, so I thought today let's interface it in hardware.
Simulation is a good starting point for projects but they are really far away from real world. It happened to me a lot of times that my simulations are working perfectly fine but when I design the same circuit in hardware then it says no I am not gonna work. :) So, the bottom line is never trust simulations, unless you properly test it on hardwar ...
Update: I have updated the code and removed the bug. Thanks for informing. Now this code will work perfectly.

Hello friends, hope you all are fine and having good health. Today, as the name suggests, I am gonna post on how to Receive SMS with AT Commands using Sim900 and Arduino. I have already posted a tutorial on How to Send SMS with Arduino UNO and Sim900, so now we are gonna check the opposite. Sending SMS is quite easy, you just need to write some AT commands and write the message you wanna send and hit the Cntrl + Z and it will be sent. But receiving a text message on your SIM900 shield is a bit difficult because now you need to place a check when user will send a message. So, ideally whenever anyone send a message to yo ...
Hello friends, a few days ago I posted an Ultrasonic Sensor Library for Proteus, using which one can easily simulate ultrasonic sensor in Proteus. The post was highly praised by the reader and I have received quite good feedback from the followers. So, I thought of sharing some more examples related to it so that users can get a complete understanding of how to use Ultrasonic sensors in Proteus. Today, we are gonna have a look on different Ultrasonic Sensor Simulation in Proteus. If you haven't read the previous post then first have a look at it because without the installation of Ultrasonic Sensor Library in Proteus, you won't be able to use these examples. Ultrasonic Sensor is used widely in Embedded Systems.Today, I am gonna share three examples of Ultrasonic Sensor Simulation in Proteu ...
Hello friends, hope you all are fine and having good health. In today's post, I am going to share an Ultrasonic Sensor Library for Proteus. A few days ago, I posted a tutorial on Arduino Library for Proteus, and today I am going to share the new Ultrasonic Sensor Library for Proteus. Using this library, you can easily interface Ultrasonic Sensors with different Microcontrollers like Arduino, PIC Microcontroller etc.First of all, let's have a brief introduction to ultrasonic sensor. In an ultrasonic sensor, there are two nodes available, one is the transmitter while the other is the receiver. The transmitter sends an ultrasonic wave and this wave strikes any hindrance present in front of it and then bounces back. This bounced ultrasonic sensor is th ...
In the previous post Logical Gates in Ladder Logic for PLC, we had an overview of what is Ladder Logic programming and we have also implemented three basic Logical gates in Ladder Logic form. Today, we are gonna have a look at some complex Logical Gates in Ladder Logic for PLC. So, I hope till now you guys have basic knowledge of Ladder Logic and can implement complex logical gates in it. If you haven't read the previous post then must read because without that knowledge you won't understand this post.
In today's post we are gonna implement few complex logical gates. Its not gonna be much difficult if you have the basic concepts. I am just pointing out few important points here. While implementing any gate in ladder logic, always consider rung as ...
Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing great. In today's tutorial, I am going to share the detailed fIn the previous post, we have seen Introduction to PLC, which was quite simple and has the basic introduction to PLC. To day we are gonna have a look at Getting Started With Ladder Logic For PLC. Ladder Logic, also named as Ladder Logic Programming, is the programming language for PLCs. Its normally considered as the most difficult language among the engineers because of its complex structure, but if you ask me then I will say its the most interesting programming language.
Ladder Logic is different from the usual programming language of Microcontrollers like Arduino, PIC Microcontroller etc. Microcontrollers programming usually compiled from top ...
