Things must come to an end. I decided to make a new library experiment, putting an ending mark to the DS1307 Real Time Clock hacking project, because the project was born as an encapsulation of a real RTC in a PIC microcontroller, wrapping an RTC hardware engine to emulate the DS1307; then a subsequent development on … Continue reading DS1307 RTC Emulator – The Arduino library

HardWire, the enhanced Arduino Wire library
I have spent a lot of time on playing and later working on the I2C buses. I almost always used self developed libraries, both for learning and job requirement purposes. Then, when experimenting with a portability of a project in the Arduino environment, I started to trying the official Wire library, discovering some incompatibilities for my … Continue reading HardWire, the enhanced Arduino Wire library
The classic hardware hacking: ATX power supply
If you like playing with lab instruments, enjoy to make things and design electronic stuff, you are probably attracted from the idea of create a new powerful (with some limitations) bench power supply by using an old ATX supply. Moreover, I need an high power supply to test my motors. For sure, building your own … Continue reading The classic hardware hacking: ATX power supply
