A short tutorial on how to get the TM1638 module up and running by using the Arduino IDE and a library.

The 4164 DRAM memory chips can be found inside old 8-bit computers like Atari 800XL and Commodore 64. In this blog I will try to explain how they work by going through the datasheet and then building a breadboard with an Arduino to look at the operation in more detail. You can also watch this on youtube.

In this blog I will show how to connect a 0.96" IPS color display that is 80x160 pixels to Arduino Nano. Then I will try the new Arduino Web Editor to create and later to share this project.

WeMos D1 mini is an ESP8266 based board that can be programmed with Arduino IDE. In this blog I will describe how to make a simple WiFi based server that is being powered by a Li-Po battery and shows temperature and humidity inside your browser window.

ESP8266 is Wi-Fi microchip which can be programmed just like a normal Arduino board. For that purpose some additional software needs to be installed inside the Arduino IDE.

If you are a Trekkie, then you must remember the door chime that is played when someone wants to enter a quarters. In this blog I will describe how to create such a doorbell using Arduino Nano and some extra modules.

Acorn RISC OS requires a mouse and it is very limited in use without it. This post describes in detail how to create a PS/2 Arduino adapter that connects to the 9-pin Mini DIN mouse port.

An undertaken electronic project does not always need a dedicated Arduino board. Sometimes it is sufficient to use separate Atmel ATmega328P chip and add some parts around it to make it work.
