IoT Arduino Wireless Temperature Humidity sensor

IoT Arduino Wireless Temperature Humidity Sensor Temperature Humidity sensors are one of the most common and widely used sensors with Arduino and other IoT platforms. There are so many use cases where a temperature humidity sensors can be used to detect potential problem like frozen pipes, broken freezers, malfunctioning air conditioning, water/humidity detection in crawl spaces and much more. In this IoT Arduino wireless temperature Humidity sensor project we will interface a long range wireless temperature humidity sensor with Arduino. These readings can be used to set an alarm or to send an alert. There are so many sensors which

Interfacing Isolated 4-20mA Current Loop Transmitter Arduino

Interfacing Isolated 4-20mA Current Loop Transmitter Arduino In our last post we interfaced 4-20mA current loop receiver with the arduino, in this article we will learn how you can interface isolated 4-20mA current loop transmitter board with arduino. 4-20mA transmitter devices are used to provide 4-20mA signal which can be used to control pumps, valves, switches and transducers. For example lets say you want to want to control a sprinkler which works on 4-20mA current loop signal, in that case you will need a 4-20mA current loop transmitter board. To control such a sprinkler you will change the current output

Interfacing a Differential Pressure Sensor with Arduino AMS 5915-0100-D

Interfacing Differential Pressure Sensor with Arduino AMS 5915-0100-D AMS5915 is a highly precise differential pressure sensor with a digital I²C-interface. This high accuracy pressure sensor can be used for various applications and various pressure ranges, differential (relative) devices in the pressure range from 0 to 100 mbar. In this project, we are using AMS5915-0100-D an industrial grade differential pressure sensor. We can also calculate temperature from this single sensor which makes it more compatible, instead of connecting dual sensors for pressure and temperature this device serves all. What is a differential pressure sensor The Differential pressure sensors come with 2

Arduino Micro Quick Start Guide

Arduino Micro Quick Start Guide

Arduino Micro is the another Arduino board which is directly supported by NCD. Most of the NCD devices works directly with it. NCD supports over 40+ relay shields, PWM drivers, sensors, current monitoring, voltage monitoring and much more. All of these devices are plug and play so you can use these board with Arduino micro just plugging one cable. Mainly NCD provides 2 shields which will let you connect your Arduino with all the NCD devices. Using Arduino Micro I2C Shield This I2C Shield comes with 3 row header pins, so you can plug your Arduino micro in it and still can access all
