Although this circuit connects the DS18S20 1-Wire temperature sensor to a Cypress CY8C26443 PSoC microcontroller, designers can easily adapt it to connect other 1-Wire devices to any microprocessor.

Ultra simple circuit of the tilt sensor alarm presented here can be fabricated using readily available inexpensive components. The circuit is a true transistor based design. Home made Tilt sensor for ...

The translated signal output from this design is fully compatible with the input stages of TTL/CMOS circuits, can source 500 µA, and can sink over 100 mA. The NPN pullup is split into two parts.

Sensors that detect and track small metallic objects are handy gadgets, whether used to route workpieces on an assembly line or comb a beach for “treasures” lost in the sand. A typical sensor design ...

The problem is, despite their relatively simple design, smart flood sensors can set you back between $35 and $60. And even the cheaper $15 dumb ones will add up if you want to monitor every ...

On one end of the twisted pair is a power supply and decoder circuit, which sends 9 volts up the line to power the PIC sensor. The decoder is based on a CD4538 dual monostable multivibrator, set ...

Chibitronics combines familiar adhesive stickers with bits of LEDs, sensor circuits, and even a programmable microcontroller, to create a playful set that educates while adding some flash to one ...

There are also sensor-equipped systems that analyze the water on an ongoing basis – according to scientists at the University of South Australia, though, these setups tend to be complex and ...
