The circuit our localizer is based on consists only of a quad-band GSM/GPRS module interfaced with a a microchip microcontroller which, after initializing the I/Os and UARTs it has at its disposal, puts the main program in a loop waiting for some event,.... -
The device is based on a GSM/GPRS module with included GPS. Its main function is to detect and communicate its own geographical position using, on the choice, the cellular phone reference system or the GPS. Its small dimensions are due to the use, for the.... -
A localizer without GPS. We remake the old device with the cheaper SimCom module SIM900. In the previous post we present the GSM section and now we can present the complete localizator. This system allows for localization without directly using GPS.... -
The tracker is easy to build on a perfboard. I used a basic one-pad-per-hole perfboard and 26-gauge wire, but 30-gauge would probably be better. All the electronic parts are available from Mouser Electronics. Radio Shack sells the perfboard and the 2. 5mm.... -
The Finder is a prototype of that device. It is a keychain-sized GPS device with two buttons, Save and Find. Pressing Save records your current location. Pressing Find visually leads you back to the saved location. Up to 9 locations can be saved. Press the.... -
This design came about as a result of efforts to design a high stability reference which locked to a 10MHz source. With some minor hardware adaptation and completely new firmware, it proved possible to design an excellent GPS Disciplined Oscillator (GPSDO).... -
The VNGBOX micro needs to produce a very accurate, high resolution and very noise-free DC control voltage to steer the reference oscillator phase accurately. Any noise on this signal will result in noise on the reference; any non-linearity, especially any.... -
With a GPS receiver that costs less than a few hundred dollars you can instantly learn your location on the planet-your latitude, longitude, and even altitude-to within a few hundred feet. The output of the VCO is directly connected to a MMIC IC3. This IC.... -
MRFICl505R2 is a 1. 575GHz GPS downconverter chip. It integrates mixer, VCO, PLL, crystal oscillator, A / D converter and loop filter and other circuits. MRFICl505R2 IF output frequency is 4. 1MHz; it has 105dB typical conversion gain, 2. 7V operating.... -
The user CPLD is only used in this design to interface the LCD module and is the same code as used in the Attaching an LCD module to the EB675001DIP application note. CLinux was used to communicate with the GPS module. Communication is simply achieved using.... -
If a page name is not selected by pressing the button, the previously selected page name continues to be used. The value is stored in EEPROM and may be changed at any time. When the unit is first powered on, and any time the Position page is displayed, the.... -
A low cost device to temporarily disable the reception of the civilian coarse acquisition (C/A) code used for the standard positioning service (SPS) on the Global Positioning System (GPS/NAVSTAR) L1 frequency of 1575. 42 MHz. This is accomplished by.... -
We discussed creating a 6` tall alarm clock - authentic down to the Timex face plate. While this may sound like a silly idea to begin with, it quickly became obvious just how difficult it would be to build at that scale so the project was scuttled. Recently,....

This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of.... -
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is.... -
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to.... -
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This.... -
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the.... -
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,.... -
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the.... -
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power.... -
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
