A programmable temperature and process controller for use by the maker community has been designed to be Arduino-compatible. Called the SmartPID it can be programmed on a PC via the USB port using the ...

This project implements a closed-loop temperature control system using an Arduino-based PID controller and TRIAC-based AC power control. The system compares multiple temperature sensors (LM35, RTD, ...

Experience — or at least education — often makes a big difference to having a successful project. For example, if you didn’t think about it much, you might think it is simple to control the ...

There’s an old saying that the cobbler’s children have no shoes. Sometimes we feel that way because we stay busy designing things for other people or for demos that we don’t have time to just build ...
