Performance evaluation of Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers implemented with a clear objective to control the temperature of a ventilation system is the focal point of this paper ...

Many microcontroller units include an internal analog-to-digital converter (ADC). For instance, most of Motorola's M68HC11 family members have an analog-to-digital subsystem, ...

This fast-executing program and simple circuit allows a PIC MCU to linearize a thermistor and accurately determine and display the temperature from its measured resistance.

FTDI announces the availability of the DLP-VLOG, a development platform based on its Vinculum Universal Serial Bus (USB) host controller IC. The platform, configured as a simple data logging ...

Students expressed creativity and ingenuity in the design of practical, microcontroller-based embedded systems for their final course projects.

Intelligence is provided by a microcontroller with built-in analog-to-digital converters (ADC) and LED-dimming peripherals. The ADC monitors system variables, such as temperature, LED current, and ...
