Today we will talk about an extremely powerful tool in the use of microcontrollers. The Serial communication, specifically the USART (Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) standard.
The system works using two wires. RX (Receiver) and TX (Transmitter), connecting two devices. The RX of one is connected to the TX of the other. If the choice is for a synchronous connection, it may be necessary to add one or two more pins to operate as a “traffic light”. But most current microcontrollers can operate asynchronously, which saves us the expense of pins. Data is sent, as the name implies, in a series of bits.
ESP8266 provides us with two ports, one of them converted to USB in the NodeMCU module.

Hello friends, i hope you all are fine and enjoying in life. On a friends request, today i am going to share a new tutorial which is 'Getting Started with Arduino Software'. Previously i have uploaded a large no of project tutorials made on 555 timers and some MATLAB based Simulations. Now we are going to touch the next level and from now on we will work on mostly projects containing Arduino microcontroller.
To get started with Arduino microcontroller, we first need to learn the operating software of Arduino microcontroller. This tutorial is very informative and i will be using Arduino software 1.0.5. It is a very basic level software and very easy to learn. IF you have already worked on Arduino software then you don't need to go through it. This ...
Hello Friends! Hope this finds you well. I welcome you on board. Thank you for clicking this read. In this post today, I’ll walk you through the Introduction to BD140.
BD140 is a medium power bipolar junction transistor that is mainly used for switching and amplification purpose. It belongs to the PNP transistor category and comes in the TO-126 package. It is made up of silicon material with collector current 1.5A which indicates it can support loads under 1.5A. The collector-base and collector-emitter terminal voltages are 80V and emitter-base voltage is 5V which is used to bias the transistor.
In this post, I’ll be detailing the complete introduction to BD140 covering pinout, working, absolute maximum ratings, physical dimensions, alternatives ...
Hey Everyone! I hope you all are doing great and enjoying life. I am back to give you daily dose of some valuable information so you can progress and grow in your relevant field. Today, I am going to unlock the details on the Introduction to 2n2905. It is a PNP (Positive-negative-Positive) bipolar junction transistor (BJT) which is mainly used for general purpose and switching applications. In this transistor, N doped semiconductor exists between the two layers of P doped material. I am going to give you brief details about this transistor. Let's get started.
Introduction to 2n2905
2n2905 is a PNP bipolar junction transistor which is mainly designed for general purpose, small signal and switching applications.
It comes in TO-39 casing an ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. In today's tutorial, we will simulate our First Electronics Project in Proteus ISIS. It's our 2nd tutorial in Proteus series. In our previous tutorial, we have seen a basic Introduction to Proteus and today, we will design a simple electronics circuit in it and will also simulate it.
If you want to work on Proteus, then you must have some prior knowledge about electronics. Proteus doesn't provide any suggestion about circuit designing so if you don't have electronics knowledge then you can't work with Proteus. Throughout this series, I will keep on explaining electronics circuits as well and will also embedded related components' links. So, if you are new to electronics then no need to worry and just ...
Hello friends, hope you all are fine and having fun with your lives. Today, I am going to share a new project named LPG Gas Leak Detector using Arduino in Proteus ISIS. Before reading this tutorial, you must first download the Gas Sensor Library for Proteus because we are gonna use that Library and will simulate the Gas Sensor in Proteus.
In this library you will find eight sensors and all of them works exactly the same so that's why we are gonna use one of them. For LPG Gas Leak Detector Project I have used MQ-2 sensor which is used for detection of LPG gas. I have also used Arduino UNO board which you can simulate in Proteus using Arduino Library for Proteus. Moreover, I have also placed an LCD which will display either LPG gas Leak Detected or ...
Hello everyone, hope you all are fine and having fun with your lives. Today, I am going to share 8051 Microcontroller Projects. Recently, I have shared quite a lot of tutorials on 8051 Microcontroller which are not much arranged as a whole. So, today, I thought to arrange all those tutorials and place them here so that you can get all of them quite easily. I will upload more 8051 Microcontroller Projects and I am gonna add their links in this post so stay subscribed to this post if you are interested in learning 8051 Microcontroller.
8051 Microcontroller, as we all know, is another Microcontroller series just like PIC Microcontroller or Arduino etc. The benefit of 8051 Microcontrollers is that they are quite cheap and easily available so if you ar ...
Hey Fellas! We always strive to keep you updated with best and valuable information so you keep coming back for what we have to offer. Today, I am going to uncover the details on the Introduction to 7805. It is a positive voltage regulator used for providing constant output voltage over a wide range of input voltage.
Before we move on, you must be clear what is voltage regulation? Voltage regulation is referred as the measure of voltage change between input and output.
The IC 7805 does the same thing. It provides constant output voltage when a range of different voltage is applied at the input terminal. This component comes with three terminals called input, ground, and output.
This is called positive voltage regulator because it generates posi ...
Hi Guys! Hope you’re well today. I welcome you on board. In this post, I’ll walk you through How a Hobbyist Can Work on Electronic Projects in America.
Working on electronic projects is a bit inundating.
From selecting the topic to research work and development to execution, you need to hustle, grind and drill to keep your final product up and running.
When you are new to the electronic field, you must not be afraid to get your hands dirty in diving deep into the nitty-gritty of the project. This means that no matter what kind of technical project you pick, you need to spend a significant amount of your time and money to reach your final goal. It's not just about making sure that whatever it is you're looking for is done well—it's also about making sure that your project is done ri ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. Today, I am going to share the Raspberry Pi 4 Library for Proteus. In our previous tutorial, we shared the Raspberry Pi 3 Library for Proteus and as we mentioned in that tutorial, these Raspberry Pi libraries will have dummy modules i.e. We have just designed the exterior but these boards won't be able to read the Python code. Although just for fun, we have added the Arduino firmware in these boards, so we can upload the Arduino code in it. As the legends say, something is better than nothing. We have given these boards an unofficial name "Arduino Pi".You can use these Pi boards to design your circuit diagram or can also use it in your presentation/demonstration of your projects. I hope you will enjoy these simulated Raspberry Pi boards. Befor ...
