8Bit Product

Do you know what this is?

Yes, it is an etch-able image, but of what? This comes straight from the minds of my Microcontroller Club's members. It's the first in a line of 8Bit products, the GhostRemote. What it is a tiny device into which you program a television remote command, which the board replicates at random intervals, annoying whomever is watching the TV. So far, I have the schematic and BOM made up, and I'm going to until I finish writing the code before I publish all of the materials. I also plan to make a kit available to those who want it.

New Logo

I may not be the artistic type but I think I've outdone myself with this.

Learning AVR-C Episode 3: Digital Input, Pull-Ups and Binary Math

Arduino Tutorial #3 (Digital Input)

Today we have our third Arduino tutorial where we go over digital inputs and internal pull-up resistors on the Arduino. Because of some problems I had with the video enhancement software, this tutorial, I'm afraid, isn't quite up to my standards, so sorry about that.
