SPI Communication Between two Arduino Boards

In this tutorial I am going to brief you on how to establish a communication between two arduino boards through SPI(Serial Peripheral Interface). SPI is also called as 4 wire interface, because it uses four pins to transmit and receive data, they are MISO (Master In Slave Out), MOSI(Master Out Slave In), SCK – This provides the clock signal for data transfer, usually from master to slave. And SS pin- It selects the slave device, it is an active low signal given by Master device. After completing the data transfer with one slave device, the master device pulls up the SS pin to high. In SPI protocol, it is possible to connect more than one slave to a master device. The master device can communicate with any slave connected to the bus at any time, but the slave can communicate only to the master. Whenever the master device wants to send a data to slave, it pulls down the SS Pin and the slave will listen to data. The master device is controlling the clock signal for data transfer, so the slave cannot be able to initiate data transfer.

PID instruction in Allen Bradley PLC Closed Loop Control

PID instruction in Allen Bradley PLC [Proportional/Integral/Derivative] Closed Loop Control For Processor SLC 5/02SLC 5/03SLC 5/04SLC 5/05 MicroLogix 1200 and MicroLogix 1500 (A special PID file replaces the old integer file control block.) Description of PID in PLC This output instruction is used to control physical properties such as temperature, pressure, liquid level, or flow rate of process loops. The PID instruction normally controls a closed loop using inputs from an analog input module and providing an output to an analog output module as a response to effectively hold a process variable at a desired set point. The PID equation controls the process by sending an output signal to the actuator. The greater the error between the setpoint and the process variable input, the greater the output signal, and vice versa. An additional value (feed forward or bias) can be added to the control output as an offset. The result of the PID calculation (control vari...

NE566 Function Generator Circuit Diagram

The NE566 Function Generator is a Voltage-Controlled Oscillator of exceptional linearity with buf fered square wave and triangle wave outputs. The frequency of oscillation is determined by an external resistor and capacitor and the voltage applied to the control terminal. The Oscillator CAN be programmed over a ten-to-one frequency range by proper selection of an external resistance and modulated over a ten-to-one range by the control voltage, with exceptional linearity.

Long Loopstick Antenna Circuit Diagram

Circuit Diagram Description Wound on a 3 foot length of PVC pipe, the long loopstick antenna was an experiment to try to improve AM radio reception without using a long wire or ground. It works fairly well and greatly improved reception of a weak station 130 miles away. A longer rod antenna will probably work better if space allows. The number of turns of wire needed for the loopstick can be worked out from the single layer, air core inductance formula: Inductance = (radius^2 * turns^2) / ((9*radius)+(10*length)) where dimensions are in inches and inductance is in microhenrys. The inductance should be about 230 microhenrys to operate with a standard AM radio tuning capacitor (33-330 pF). The 3 foot PVC pipe is wound with approximately 500 evenly spaced turns of #24 copper wire which forms an inductor of about 170 microhenrys, but I ended up with a little more (213uH) because the winding spacing wasn't exactly even. A secondary coil of about 50 turns is wound along the length of th...
