having Neural cybernetics as a hobby of old, I was intruiged by this post:

Presently ( mainly for work at the mo, but have some ideas up my sleeve) , look at this stuff.
Its so versatile and cheap (£17 for the cheapest version)and the uses are only limited by the users imagination .
I have an ATU in the pipe line emoticon

http://www.arduino.cc/

Enjoy, people




needless to say I did, and needless to say it`s what I`v been doing now for over 2 decades, and NO I`m Not trying to belittle it by that, but rather the opposite, I think it`s a Fantastic idea! emoticon
and somewhat "About Time!".

I designed what I called the "G8" board, it was Z80 based and the bare bones basics of a fully working computer on a small 4x4 inch board, and it`s Original job was to expand the Zones on an alarm system.

the Arduinos and their many clones do everything these "G8"s did and more it would seem.

I can imagine the ATU project Easily being made an Auto-ATU with one of these inside with it`s analogue inputs for sensing and digital servo(s) out! or even relay switching (but I like the Idea of a Servo on a variable Cap shaft too).

it might make a nice home based Repeater project too, being able to control and use your Home radio with a handheld radio (a Wouxun for example)via the DTMF keypad.

the ideas are fairly limitless!

Digital electronics are a bit out of my league I'm afraid - I still live in the age of the thermionic valve. emoticon

Andy nothing like a big Triode under your feet to keep your toes warm !

And they also double as a toaster.... hhhmmmm ..... toast

Im glad you like it. emoticon

Ive not been into code writing for long, have always been 'pure' electronics so thats why its a recent discovery for me.

Previously to finding the Arduino, i have done a few PIC based projects. The last one was a variable speed 3 phase tacho generator to simulate a motor for a project at work. It worked very well emoticon

There are so many things that can be done with these and their similar devices.

With the ATU , i was thinking of using varicap diodes instead of a mechanical set-up.

I have managed to save £1000s on projects at work using these devices.

As i go along, i can update people on here, if there is any particular interest.

Cheers chaps emoticon

Re: Arduino project chat


I absolutely agree on the Valve usage too, I much prefer them for many apps that require transistors and such, and they kick a$$ outa FETs/SCRs for turning mains powered Christmas tree light strings on/off emoticon
but I`m comfortable using Both technologies.


anyway, my DFRduino arrived a few days ago and I`v been having a mess about with different "Sketches" (why the HELL don`t they just call it a Program!???), and have also built a little "Sheild" (another unnecessary name for an Interface), and find it`s fairly easy to use.

the Programming language though...
well lets just say it leaves me with "language" of my own! emoticon

it seems a step Backwards rather than when I left off about 15 years ago, I somewhat expected that a modern programing lang would be less Spastic.

not withstanding that, a Step learning curve latter and I expect some interesting results from this tech emoticon

Re: Arduino project chat


well I`m slowly progressing past making little Knight Rider lights on my vero board plugin, and have just bought a 7 servo robot arm made by Lynx.
it`s only the arm and servos, so I`v bought a servo controller board too, so that should free up the processor time on this little Atmega 328.

I know it can control the servos too, but that would only leave me about 50% cpu time, whereas I can have 100% if I "Talk" to the servo controller via the serial link.

I`m going to build a "Scutter" type robot as seen on Red Dwarf, give it a broom and teach it to sweep up the shack emoticon

I`m only Half kidding!


your Varicap diode idea would probably work for QRP, but these variable caps in larger ATUs need quite some plate spacing to prevent arcing, I`m not sure there are any variac diodes up to that kind of power.
I`d love to be wrong though.

Re: Arduino project chat


This is the code i did for testing a PSU with 5v,12v and 35v O/P and variable inputs between 110v and 240v. Ive split the code in to so i can post it on here. Some of the stuf is in there for debug use too.Its for Arduino Mega:

int inputVoltagePin0 =A0;
int inputVoltagePin1 =A1;
int inputVoltagePin2 =A2;
//int outputPin = 13; // choose the pin for the LED for test
int inPin34 = 34;

Re: Arduino project chat


Basically, it measures the 3 supply lines and passes or fails them according to the limits i set. It also passes and fails each input voltage section.The input voltages are supplied by an auto transformer and switched in/out by solid state relays and a contactor controlled by the Arduino.
The measured voltage can be observed through Hyperterminal and a series of 'Pass'/ 'Fail' leds.
