A seismometer, is an instrument used to detect and record ground motion caused by seismic waves, such as those generated by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or other sources of ground vibration. Basically, the seismometer consists of two parts,...
I've had a microscope for a while now, and I find it an invaluable tool. But I have to be honest -- most of the time, it's in the way. That's mostly because the cheap stand I bought with it is -- well, cheap. The base is awkward and precludes using the...
The MCU is a MSP430G2231 which is extremely small and limited but it comes in a PDIP package and is easy to program (see my last project). It is well suited for this application because I only need 1 shift register, 1 output pin, and a 1 MHz clock...
Introduction Today I want to tell you what one of the biggest problems is in electronic projects involving the Internet of Things and low energy consumption. In addition to telling you about this problem, we will show you how to avoid it in your projects....
