Assume that you are moving towards a complex microcontroller project bundled with blinkers, beepers, and a display panel. To link a standard 16×2 LCD directly with the microcontroller, for instance ...

These days, you could be forgiven for thinking driving an LCD from a microcontroller is easy. Cheap displays have proliferated, ready to go on breakout boards with controllers already baked in. Load ...

One of the limitations of the small 8 bit microcontrollers like the Atmel ATMega family adopted by the Arduino board, is the reduced number of I/O ports. Among the main advantages of these ...

Hackaday brought you a first look the Arduino MKR Vidor 4000 when it announced. Arduino sent over one of the first boards so now we finally have our hands on one! It’s early and the documentation is ...

Particle, a company that makes development kits for wireless Internet of Things applications—formerly known as Spark Devices—is preparing to ship a new board-based computer that will allow developers ...

This module will investigate creating an interactive side-scrolling game using an Arduino. It will also provide experience with advanced usage of the 16x2 LCD screen and its scrolling capabilities.
