This project describes the use of a M32C/84 as an embedded internet appliance, capable of hosting a website over a standard dialup connection. When this device connects itself to the internet, it announces its allocated IP address to a dynamic DNS service, allowing a fixed domain name to point directly to HTTP and FTP servers. […]

Lighthouse Model Controller

April 22, 2012 By: admin Category: Control, LED, Project, Renesas No Comments →

The presented project is a tiny controller for lighthouse based on R8C/13 microcontroller. The hardware design is very simple. The only external components other than resistors and capacitors are: LED used as a light source, CdS photoresistor used as ambient light level sensor, 74AC14 used as very low cost (false) RS232C driver and quartz oscillator […]

RS232 Analyzer, QuickComs

With RS232 quickly being replaced by USB, the nightmare of incorrectly wired appliances and forgotten baud rates will be a thing of the past. Unfortunately RS232 will still be with us for a long time to come and as it becomes used less frequently the exact parity and baud rates for devices can easily be […]

Digital Instrument Panel for Diesel Engines

April 16, 2012 By: admin Category: Interfacing, Microcontroller, Project, Renesas Comments Off on Digital Instrument Panel for Diesel Engines

This project serves as a ‘black box’ which interfaces with the pressure, temperature, RPM and other sensors of a Diesel Engine to generate serial packet data for a ‘Digital Instrument Panel’, which can be viewed on a PC, on an operator’s HMI (Human Machine Interface) console or wirelessly via the Bluetooth link on a PDA.
