This circuit is used to convert single pole 12 throw switch to into binary output. 12 Way Switch As the maximum bit is 12 (position) which is represented as 1100 in binary hence we need 4 data lines as output Diode Base 12 Way Switch to Binary Converter Circuit Here in the image above we can see each input position…
Project We have to drive a 500W motor using a PIC16F877A, measure its RPM and also feeding it back to the microcontroller to displaying its real-time speed on a 16x2 LCD Character Display. Solutions There are many solutions available for motor control from more efficient motor driving IC to making your own H-bridge or using a high side or low…
