FREQUENCY MEASUREMENT USING AVR ATMEGA8

     Often frequency measurement is needed, but one cannot afford a DSO or an appropriate meter for that. So we have designed it in AVR microcontroller which is easily available and much easier to program.

    This frequency measurement uses Input Capture module in Timer1 via ICP pin PB0. For ease of programming, we have designed a low frequency measurement for frequencies lesser than 1KHz, but can be increased upto several 100KHz, through prescalar.

       The circuit diagram is

LCD 4 BIT INTERFACING WITH AVR MICROCONTROLLERS ATMEGA8,16,32,64

LCD 4 BIT INTERFACING WITH AVR MICROCONTROLLERS ATMEGA8,16,32,64

   This is the header file for LCD 4-bit mode interfacing with AVR Microcontroller series such as Atmega 16, 32, 64, 8, etc. It is coded in GCC & supports all AVR GCC compliers.

   This is designed for 16×2 LCD, but can be exteneded upto 20×4 LCD.
   Contains all functions with different cursor styles, string display from ram & flash rom, bcd, signed & unsigned  integer 8-bit and 16-bit numbers, shift left, shift right, etc.

FREE ELECTRONIC ANDROID APPS



          Electronics has much more complex calculations than basic maths. More tools are available for these electronics calculation but they are mostly windows or linux based application.



          Android, an opensource smartphone OS, enables anyone to design an app for it. So it is easy for any common person who knows the electronics & basic programming can build an app.

          Lets see the commonly available free Android apps for Electronic designs, such as ohm’s law, KCL, KVL, resistor colour code calculations, series-parallel calculations, etc,etc,etc,,,,

·         Ohm's Law
Ohm's law calculator and the Watt's Law calculator.

12V BATTERY HEALTH INDICATOR

This circuit is simple and easy to build & has only a few discrete components.
This indicates the 12V battery safe operating voltage.




Diode D1 protects the circuit when the battery polarity is reversed.
The LED glows with full brightness when the battery voltage is above the set threshold.

The threshold is set with the zener diode D2. for this circuit the threshold will
 Vds+VBEq1 ~= 11.5V

When the Battery voltage is above 10.8V the LED glows with very little brightness & increases with increase in battery voltage.
When it is above 11.5V the LED glows with full brightness.

The resistance R1 limts the current flow through the LED, R2 limits base current.
The current consumption is very less. Approx 10mA for battery voltage above 13V & very lesser current consumption (in few uA) when battery voltage drops below 10.5V.

Rectangular Wave - PWM Waveform - Generation using 555

This simple circuit that produces a rectangular waveform using the most commonly available analog timer IC 555.

The on time and off time are controlled by the resistances Ra & Rb, which are variable to get the required value.

The formula for the time calculations are
The Circuit diagram is


The rectangular/pwm output is at pin 3 of the IC.
Resistance R1,R2 protects the device from shorting the terminals to VCC and ensure a minimum resistance available between the terminals.

The time delay depends on C2, RV1 & RV2. Change the values for desired output.

To get a square wave output, the condition is Ra=Rb. To get this, set the both pots to extreme left of right.

VHDL - JOHNSON & RING COUNTER CODE -
VLSI LAB MANUAL


Here is the code for  Johnson & Ring Counter in VHDL. This is the synthesised code in Xilinx ISE.

The working is simple..
reset, clk are the inputs
x is data out
if reset is '1', then all register are loaded all zeros
else for every rising clock edge, the count is advanced.
