BUILD THE GRAPHING THERMOMETER

 

This project joins an Arduino CPU, some temperature/humidity sensors, and a real time clock (RTC) module to a large (3.5 inch) high-resolution color LCD graphics display to create a fun and useful graphing thermometer.

 
 

SETTING UP A TEST BENCH

 

I can hardly imagine an electronics enthusiast without some sort of test bench. This can be as simple as a folding table and a couple of hand tools, along with a cheap DMM (Digital MultiMeter). Or, it can be as elaborate as a spare room just loaded with TE and a full complement of tools and accessories to go with it.

NEW! PicoScope 9404-05 SXRTO

The PicoScope 9404-05 SXRTO (Sampler eXtended Real Time Oscilloscope). The 9404-05 features four 5 GHz 12-bit channels, each supported by real-time sampling to 500 MS/s per channel and up to 1 TS/s (1 ps) equivalent-time sampling. Both the voltage and timing resolution specifications are characteristics of the highest performance broadband oscilloscopes.

UNDERSTANDING HARMONICS USING SIMULATION

 

Harmonics form a base line for testing, comparing, and explaining various circuits. This short tutorial shows how you can systematically look at the structure of complex circuits using a simulation program and building block approach.

 

R&S®RTB2000
Digital Oscilloscope –

More Than Just an Oscilloscope

The R&S®RTB2000 Oscilloscope is the perfect tool for design debugging. Get 10-bit ADC, 10 Msample memory, and 10.1" touchscreen plus a smart user interface. It's the Power of 10 at an unexpected price.

MAKERPLOT — THE DIY SOFTWARE KIT

 

If you use microcontrollers in your projects, imagine how helpful it would be to see the data in a graphical format, rather than just a series of numbers — especially when debugging! MakerPlot does all of this and connects directly to your microcontroller's serial port to display analog and digital data in graphical form; it's DIY software for your microcontroller projects.
