Custom E-Blocks
Posted: Sun Dec 05, 2010 3:29 pm
I have just recently completed building a couple of custom E-Blocks.
They have both been built on the EB017 Patch Board
4 x 20 LCD Display
This uses a standard 4x20 LCD display from Rapid. The connections run on the back of the board to the 10 pin SIL header.
Connections are basically the same as the normal Matrix E-Block display
Multisensor Board
This board has a slection of the common sensors and indicators I use for experiments.
SR04 Ultrasonic Transducer
RGB Led
Bi Colour LED
Reed Relay
SPDT Switch
LM35 Temperature Sensor
LDR
Potential Divider
Microphone
Buzzer - Driven by a transistor
The SIL headers next to each sensor allow it to be connected by jumpers to the patch sockets next to the 9 way D Plugs and then connected to the Programmer
As I have 2 ports and 8 lines on each port, several sensors can be used at once, depending on the sensor and the pic type.
As can be seen there is still room to add more sensors to the board if required.
