Projects in Progress

This page lists all projects currently under active development and not yet (completely) finished. Projects on this list may get support from the Elektor team and even make it to print in Elektor Magazine and/or become a ready-made product in the shop. That's right, you can make money from your project!

Before you know it you too are Elektorized!

Courty

Project now in Lab

CAN tester [120195]

rjv

MCU board to experiment with the CAN bus. Circuit based on ATmega8515, SJA1000 and PCA82C251 (High Speed CAN). LCD and RS232 may be left off. Can be...

RFM12-Lib in operation: Remote control of toy train Royal Express [130160-I]

waltro

What can you do as Electronic-based grandfather if you have two grandsons, two toy trains and two remote control units, but only one control path?...

Universal High-Precision Measurement Interface

binistor28

The proposed application interfaces any system configured in wheastone bridge for measurement of temperature, pressure, voltage, etc. The Wheastone...

Embedded Firmware Library (EFL)

jennic

Many Elektor-readers really like to modify projects, not to build them as they are. So about 99% of the Elektor projects are published with open...

model house light on RS232 [130136-I]

akiba

this small module allows switching of up to 5 LEDs for lighting a model house. Several modules can be connected in parallel and are individually...

2A Maximum Power Point Charger [130145-I]

AndersG

Here is an article proposal that I feel would fit nicely in the summer issue, or perhaps before summer, as a solar panel charger is best used during...

High-end propeller clock [120732]

Bobbylebob

A propeller clock, also known as a Persistance Of Vision (POV) display is based on a mechanically moving led row. This led row is either oscillating...

Sounding Balloon Main Unit Controller [130082]

ale

To transmit data of telemetry since the nacelle of a sounding balloon is not easy. A sophisticated equipment is often needed. The proposed card...

Servo Tester [120474-I]

sunil

A simple circuit for quickly testing model plane servos. The pulse width is controlled with P1. The circuit can be powered from 4 NiMH cells. This...

555 Class D Power Amplifier [130144-I]

frederik

With this project, I like to build a small class D amplifier based on a 555 timer IC. I also like to use only “common” components, so...

RubenvanLeeuwen

This 8x8 Led matrix contains two-color leds (red & green) which can be controlled with the ATmega328P. The schematic contains connectors for...

Modular General Purpose RF Link Using Manchester Code [120049-I]

sunil

Frequently there is a need to send data to a distant point without using a wired connection, either because the location’s infrastructure would...

Multichannel Temperature logger

ifriad

I present here a six channel temperature data logger. The unit uses the DS18B20 digital temperature sensors. It also has a Real Time Clock (RTC-...

50W Photovoltaic Solar Battery Regulator [080305]

pascal.tours

This circuit was originally designed to power a small weather station but it is perfectly suitable for any other low-power application. The regulator...

Automatic license plate recognition (ALPR)

sunil

Automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) is a mass surveillance method that uses optical character recognition on images to read and recognize...

Ultrasonic Parking Aid

sunil

I have always parked my cars in a garage. If you’re like me, you have probably used a tennis ball on a string or a board on the floor to find...

USB-DMX Scene Controller
