    Optocoupler as current sensor

    I actually misunderstood the concept. The resistor that will be added at Vin will convert current to voltage. I did not pick up this and hence throughout I thought it was a voltage sensor and NOT a current sensor. Finally I realized it. - - - Updated - - - (I took a break from working on this...

    Optocoupler as current sensor

    My question is what configuration I should use with my IL300 to use it as a current sensor. You mentioned that I should scale the current using a shunt since the input amps range for coupler is quite low, should I be using a variable resistor? How should I select that shunt value? - - -...

    Optocoupler as current sensor

    Hi. I am using IL300 optocoupler for my voltage isolation (except 1 output voltage value rest all linear to the input). I want to use the same for current sensing and connect it to my ADC. I am not sure if for the current sensing its the same circuit as mentioned in the datasheet under typical...

    [General] LCD interfacing with MCU

    Yes. I bought it because it was cheap with built in controller (:P). Apparently the controller link and initialization Code link isn't working or its dead. Since it was mentioned that there is controller but nothing else was given or accessible I assumed that I could directly use it with MCU...

    [General] LCD interfacing with MCU

    176 wire?! wow thats something. I am using PIC18f4550 and my LCD is mc21605c6w-spr So I guess I should connect a controller IC between my PIC and LCD other wise 176 wire soldering (haha) I have noticed that Hitachi HD44780 LCD controller is the most famous. I came across this where the...

    [General] LCD interfacing with MCU

    I was just wondering if all LCD displays require a controller IC. Why can't we directly interface LCD with MCU? Why is a controller IC important?

    [PIC] Trouble with Olimex PIC18f4550

    Hi folks. Recently I bought OLIMEX pic18f4550 (link: https://www.olimex.com/Products/PIC/Proto/PIC-USB-4550/resources/PIC-USB-4550.pdf). I am trying to interface it with PICkit by microchip. When I am trying to setup my IPE tu=o just test blinking LED code under Tools I cannot find any option to...

    Chebychev bandpass filter

    So should I assume passband ripple and stopband attenuation values and move on with my calculations and design the filter? If yes then may I know how exactly the assumed values will affect my filter design?

    Chebychev bandpass filter

    I am designing a FM receiver and the first module is BPF. I have decided to use chebyshev filter but i am finding it difficult to design it. The only information i have is: Resonant frequency (i.e. frequency of signal received): 140 MHz Q factor : 14 fL: 135 MHz fH: 145 MHz Bandwidth: 10 MHz...

    Battery Calculations

    I am working on Line Maze solving robotic car. I am wondering how to select the battery. I talked to my lecturer he said for that I need to calculate how much is the overall power, voltage and current consumption. I did that yet i am not able to understand how to decide which battery i should be...

    How code 90 degree turn for a line maze solving robot?

    Re: How to code 90 degree turn for a line maze solving robot? When i stop one wheel and move only the other wheel, then the bot doesn't come to the same position. It gets shifted or diverted from the line. There is an attachment where i have drawn a rough sketch on where the wheels and the...

    How code 90 degree turn for a line maze solving robot?

    I am building a robot which follows a black line on a white surface to solve user defined and re configurable maze. I have decided to go with Micro-controller: Arduino Uno Algorithm: Left-priority Wall Follower Motors: 2 servo motor Sensors: IR sensors I am having difficulty with writing a...
