Teach-In
2000 Part 2 - Our flagship electronics tutorial series is ideal for
younger students or those wishing to train (or re-train) in electronics.
It provides a practical way in which electronics fundamentals can be explored,
and by using the free interactive BASIC program which accompanies the series,
computer users can develop their skills even further.
PIC
Micro-ProbeThis handy gadget helps debug most PIC-based projects, by listening for any valid debug words generated by embedding special "target" code in the application, in order to flag output pins. Designed for programs being assembled through MPASM
Magnetic
Field DetectorThis easy starter project is perfect for beginners to try their hands at electronic project construction. It detects fixed magnetic fields and displays a simple reading on a meter, or those that vary at audio frequencies, sounding via a crystal earphone. Based on the UGN3503U Hall Effect Sensor, our project also introduces readers to the Hall Effect principle.
Ginormous
Stopwatch(Part 2) Our Giant Enormous Stopwatch described last month, can be upgraded to include a large l.e.d. display, each digit being 7" high! Perfect for quiz matches, public events, sports, competitions, etc.
