Digital Thermometer and the RS232 Interface to PC

Digital Thermometer and the RS232 Interface to PC
This digital thermometer was built by using the temperature sensor LM35DZ, PIC16F877 microcontroller and MAX232 IC. Temperature measurements can also be viewed on a computer program which can monitor the state of COM ports of a PC. Sample measurement data received through COM2 is being viewed on the SERIAL WATCHER program which is distributed freely on the internet.[more]

EnerJar

EnerJar
The EnerJar is an easy-to-build device that accurately measures the power draw of electrical appliances. The EnerJar was the winner of the Greener Gadgets design competition. The design is still being optimized, but preliminary schematics and source code can be found on this site by following the “Hardware” and “Software”.The EnerJar is designed based on PIC16F877.[more]

DTMF Remote control with software DTMF decoder for PIC 16F87X

DTMF Remote control
This project is a simple DTMF Remote control. The DTMF detector is integrated in software. All the logic requested to receive and decode DTMF Commands over the phone line is integrated in the PIC16F877 chip, only few external components are used. As soon as possible he plan to switch to a PIC16F629-20 Pic and like that will be a Single Chip DTMF Remote Control. [more]
