BUILD THE STROBODUINO Traditional stroboscopes that used photoflash tubes have been expensive enough that very few hobbyists could own them. The StroboDuino is a hobbyist-grade stroboscope that stops the motion of rotating or reciprocating objects. It uses some of the latest very bright LEDs that rival photoflash tubes. For around $50, you can have your own Stroboscope to use for testing and experimenting with stopping motion. Read It Now! SEVEN COMMON WAYS TO GENERATE A SINE WAVE The sine wave is a naturally occurring signal shape in communications and other electronic applications. Many electronic products use signals of the sine wave form. Audio, radio, and power equipment usually generates or processes sine waves. As it turns out, there are literally dozens of ways to generate a sine wave. Here are some popular methods you should be familiar with. Read It Now!

While I use it with a model IS550, it should work with many other Genie models as well. Read It Now! ALL ABOUT PIC COMPARATORS Analog comparators, though not particularly sexy, must surely rate as one of the more useful building blocks for a wide variety of circuits. They can be used to generate pulse width modulation, monitor under- or over-voltages, shape up ugly signals into nice crisp pulse waves, act as logical inverters, help with interfacing mechanical switches, and more.
