Read (+) (–)

This book contains 50 fun and exciting projects for PIC microcontrollers such as a laser alarm, USB teasing mouse, eggtimer, youth repellent, soundswitch, capacitive liquid level gauge, 'finger in the water' sensor, guarding a room using a camera, mains light dimmer (110-240 volts), talking microcontroller and much more. Several different techniques are discussed such as relay, alternating current control including mains, I²C, SPI, RS232, USB, pulse width modulation, rotary encoder, interrupts, infrared, analog-digital conversion (and the other way around), 7-segment display and even CAN bus. You can use this book to build the projects for your own use. The clear explanations, schematics and even pictures of each project make this a fun activity. For each project the theory is discussed and why the project has been executed in that particular way. That means you can also use this book as a studybook, or as basis for larger and more complicated projects. All projects use a breadboard so modification and expansion is easy. Three PIC microcontrollers are used, the 16f877A, 18f4455 and 18f4685. It is also discussed how you can migrate your project from one microcontroller to another – 15 types are supported - including two example projects. All software that is used in this book can be downloaded for free. That also applies to the open source programming language JAL. This powerful and yet easy to learn language is used by hobbyists as well as professionals. This book can also be used as a reference guide. It explains all JAL commands, as well as the expansion libraries. Using the index you can easily find example projects that illustrate the use of these commands. Even when you have built all projects in this book you will still want to keep it within arm's reach.

Electronic devices increasingly come with glued displays and batteries. And while the adhesive seal serves as a protection against dirt and water, it complicates the opening procedure of the device and hence its repair. The iOpener: Warm it through, unstick the glue! With the help of our iOpener, you can easily and quickly loosen adhesive without risking damage to your device due to overheating with a heat gun. Originally designed for opening Apple iPads, the iOpener is just as suitable for Samsung tablets, Sony smartphones, and devices from any other manufacturer who prefers adhesive over screws. How it works Heat the iOpener and place it on your device: Simply heat up the iOpener in the microwave or a pot of boiling water and position it on the edge of your device. The heat will soften the adhesive without damaging your gadget so you can insert an opening pick between the display and the case. Repeat this procedure for all glued areas, the iOpener is reusable any number of times. Use opening tools to remove adhesive residue: With the right tools, you’re now ready to open your device without hassle. The opening picks are sharp-edged enough to cut through the adhesive strips. Complete the opening procedure by prying up the case with an opening tool or lift your display with a suction cup or an iSclack. A must-have for electronic repairs The most annoying part of your repair is done, the rest will be almost a cinch. Whether you are a beginner or a professional, the iOpener should be part and parcel of every toolbox worthy of its name. Your advantages Loosen adhesive fastenings Uncomplicated to heat up in the microwave or boiling water Reusable Optionally available with opening tools Contains food grade glycerine Saves money and the planet Included iOpener Spudger iFixit Opening Tool 6x iFixit Opening Picks iFixit Battery Isolation Pick Plastic Cards Suction Cup Angled Tweezers Plastic bit driver with magnetic bit socket (4 mm), rubberized handle and swivel cap Precision bits (4 mm) Phillips #00 Flathead 2.5 mm

Het boek “Sensoren aan de Raspberry Pi” richt zich tot iedereen die zich wil verdiepen in een Raspberry Pi in combinatie met Windows 10 IoT Core. Dit besturingssysteem biedt samen met een RPi weliswaar veel rekenkracht, maar voor de communicatie met de buitenwereld zijn nog externe modules en sensoren nodig. Daartoe wordt in dit boek gebruik gemaakt van een sensor-kit met 35 modules die nog geen 60 euro kost. Auteur Florian Schäffer begint zijn boek met de introductie van de Raspberry Pi en hij beschrijft welke hardware u nodig hebt om met de RPi te kunnen werken. Dan volgt een eerste kennismaking met Windows 10 IoT Core. Daarna wordt dieper ingegaan op het gebruik van Visual Studio 2015 en worden de eerste programmeervoorbeelden beschreven. Ook wordt uitgelegd hoe een MySQL-databank kan worden aangestuurd via een app en hoe de als webserver kan worden ingezet. In het tweede deel worden de sensoren stuk voor stuk beschreven met hun eigenschappen en worden er veel toepassingsvoorbeelden gegeven. De source-codes van de programma’s zijn als download bij het boek beschikbaar. Tot slot wordt nog aandacht besteed aan het gebruik van druktoetsen en schakelaars, en het werken met digitale uitgangen en analoge ingangen.

As demand for solar panel installation has risen sharply, especially for installations larger than balcony power plants, the order books of solar companies are full. If you ask for a quote today, you may have to wait a while, if your request isn't simply postponed indefinitely. Another consequence of the solar boom is that some companies are charging very high prices for installations. Yet there is an obvious and radical solution to the problem of excessive prices: Do it yourself, as the English say. The price of materials is currently affordable, and it's the ideal time for those who do the work themselves. They couldn't save more. Add to this the satisfaction of doing something useful, both economically and ecologically, and the pleasure of building yourself. In this special issue, you'll find a wide selection of Elektor assemblies, from solar panel controllers to solar water heaters and solar panel orientation systems. The issue also contains practical information on solar panel installation and the technology behind them. Finally, there are a number of articles on the subject of balcony power plants, from how to install them to how to connect them to the Internet...
