3rd Edition – Fully updated for Raspberry Pi 4 The Raspberry Pi is a very cheap but complete computer system that allows all sorts of electronics parts and extensions to be connected. This book addresses one of the strongest aspects of the Raspberry Pi: the ability to combine hands-on electronics and programming. Combine hands-on electronics and programming After a short introduction to the Raspberry Pi you proceed with installing the required software. The SD card that can be purchased in conjunction with this book contains everything to get started with the Raspberry Pi. At the side of the (optional) Windows PC, software is used which is free for downloading. The book continues with a concise introduction to the Linux operating system, after which you start programming in Bash, Python 3 and Javascript. Although the emphasis is on Python, the coverage is brief and to the point in all cases – just enabling you to grasp the essence of all projects and start adapting them to your requirements. All set, you can carry on with fun projects. The book is ideal for self-study No fewer than 45 exciting and compelling projects are discussed and elaborated in detail. From a flashing lights to driving an electromotor; from processing and generating analog signals to a lux meter and a temperature control. We also move to more complex projects like a motor speed controller, a web server with CGI, client-server applications and Xwindows programs. Each project has details of the way it got designed that way The process of reading, building, and programming not only provides insight into the Raspberry Pi, Python, and the electronic parts used, but also enables you to modify or extend the projects any way you like. Also, feel free to combine several projects into a larger design.

Understanding and Using Them Effectively What happens in electronics is invisible to the naked eye. The instrument that allows to accurately visualize electrical signals, the one through which the effects of electronics become apparent to us, is the oscilloscope. Alas, when one first ventures into electronics, it is often without an oscilloscope. And one is left fumbling, both physically and mentally. Observing an electrical signal on a screen for the first time is a revelation. Nobody wishes to forgo that marvel again. There is no turning back. In electronics, if one wishes to progress with both enjoyment and understanding, an oscilloscope is essential. This marks the beginning of a period of questioning: how to choose one? And no sooner is that question answered than a whole string of others arises, which can be summed up in just one: how does one use the oscilloscope in such a way that what it displays truly reflects the reality of the signals? Rémy Mallard is a passionate communicator with a gift for making complex technical subjects understandable and engaging. In this book, he provides clear answers to essential questions about using an oscilloscope and offers a wealth of guidance to help readers explore and understand the electrical signals behind electronic systems. With his accessible style and practical insights, this book is a valuable tool for anyone eager to deepen their understanding of electronics.

Het is altijd interessant te weten wat er zich onder de motorkap afspeelt, wanneer er iets met uw auto niet in orde is. Het in de auto aanwezige diagnosesysteem helpt de fout te lokaliseren en de reparatiekosten te drukken. Zo hoeft u niet telkens wanneer een waarschuwingslampje gaat branden meteen naar de garage te gaan. Slechts met een passende interface voor het uitlezen van de foutcodes en de talloze meetwaarden van elektronische sensoren valt bij moderne auto's nog vast te stellen waar zich een fout voordoet. Naast een praktijkgerichte beschrijving van moderne diagnosemogelijkheden voor de ambitieuze autoliefhebber wordt in dit boek een goedkope zelfbouw-diagnoseinterface beschreven, en kunt u lezen wat er zoal aan kant-en-klare oplossingen op de markt is. Een ander zelfbouwproject betreft een multifunctioneel instrument dat continu en zelfstandig relevante meetwaarden in de auto aangeeft. Het onderwerp OBD (On Board Diagnose) wordt verder uitgediept door een uitvoerige beschrijving van de gangbare diagnoseprotocollen conform ISO 9141, ISO 14230 (K-lijn) en SAE J1850 (PWM, VPW). Oudere voertuigen van het Volkswagenconcern kunnen via KW 1281 aan de tand worden gevoeld en zelfs opnieuw worden geconfigureerd. Gewapend met deze kennis bent u na lezing van dit boek in staat eigen diagnose-toepassingen te ontwikkelen.

Met behulp van de lessen in dit boek leert u hoe u zelf een microcontroller kunt programmeren. We maken daarbij gebruik van JAL, een gratis maar uiterst krachtige programmeertaal voor PIC microcontrollers, die in de hobbywereld erg populair is. We starten aan het absolute begin, en bouwen vandaar de kennis op. U heeft dus geen voorkennis nodig: iedereen kan met dit boek aan de slag. Wanneer u alle lessen volgt (dat wil zeggen: de oefeningen ook daadwerkelijk maakt) dan kunt u wanneer u het boek uit heeft zelf PIC microcontroller programma’s schrijven, en programma’s van anderen lezen. JAL opdrachten U leert de functie van JAL opdrachten zoals include, pin, delay, forever loop, while loop, case, exit loop, repeat until, if then, en het gebruik van functies, procedures en timer- en poortinterrupts. JAL programma’s U laat een LED knipperen, maakt een tijdschakelaar, meet de stand van een potmeter, maakt geluiden, voorkomt contactdender en regelt de helderheid van een LED. En uiteraard leert u debuggen: hoe u in uw programma’s fouten kunt vinden en oplossen. Hardware U leert verschillende onderdelen zoals PIC microcontroller, potmeter en kristal herkennen, en hoe u een PIC microcontroller aan moet sluiten en met uw PC moet verbinden. U maakt hierbij gebruik van een steekbord zodat u de opstelling gemakkelijk kunt aanpassen om verder te experimenteren.

1-Wire ist die Bezeichnung für eine serielle Schnittstelle, die mit nur einer Datenader auskommt. Es ist ein Master-Multi-Slave-Kommunikationsprotokoll. Verfügbar sind integrierte Bausteine zur Temperaturmessung, Akkuüberwachung, Echtzeituhr und beispielsweise Hotelschließanlagen. Eine Besonderheit von 1-Wire-Geräten ist die Spannungsversorgung aus der Gegenstation, hierbei erfolgt die Versorgung der Slaves über die Datenleitung. Der Leser erhält mit „Das 1-Wire-Praxisbuch“ eine umfassende Einführung in die 1-Wire-Technologie. Das Buch zeigt anhand praktischer Projekte zum Nachbauen, wie man verschiedene verfügbare 1-Wire-Chips in eigene Mikrocontroller-gesteuerte Anwendungen integrieren kann, und zwar mit Assembler-Software-Implementierungen für PIC-Mikrocontroller und mit Sketches für den Arduino. Die 1-Wire-Technik kommt in dem Buch praxisnah bei einem elektronischen Schloss zum Einsatz, das von einem PIC-Mikrocontroller gesteuert wird. Ein weiteres Praxisprojekt erläutert Schritt für Schritt, wie beispielsweise eine ständige Temperaturmessung mit 1-Wire-Bausteinen möglich ist.
