An Antenna Rotator Controller

An Antenna Rotator Controller
The controller consists of a small circuit board which fits inside the rotator control box .With this unit the rotator gains automatic heading seeking, computer control, and even heading control by clicking on a map or selecting a country prefix.The controller could also form the basis of a self-contained replacement controller, for rotators with faulty or missing controllers.

LED Patterns with AVR micro

LED Patterns with AVR micro

This AVR Startup Project will create a rolling display pattern using up to 8 Light Emiting Diodes. But more importantly, this page demonstrates how to set up and run a basic program using the power ATMEL AVR development kit. It was one of my very first AVR programs, and one might say it is the hardware world’s equavalent of the “Hello world” program.[more]

Dreamcast serial port adaptor

Dreamcast serial port adaptor
This website describes how to build an adaptor for the Dreamcast serial port that will allow you to connect it to any computer using a standard 9-pin DSUB connector. The main component is a MAX voltage converter, since the Dreamcast serial port uses CMOS (3.3V) voltage levels, whereas normal RS232 uses +/-12V levels.[more]

Digital Automotive tachometer

digital tachometer
Automotive tachometers provide a measure of how fast the engine crankshaft or main shaft is turning. Exceeding this is obviously quite bad for the engine, and in a performance application the tachometer is the most important tool a driver uses. Flexibility and absolute accuracy in how this tool operates was the driving force behind developing the tachometer board. [more]
