LED Brightness Control using Touch Sensor and ARM

Hey Folks,
In this tutorial, we will learn, how to change the intensity of light using touch sensor the ARM (FRDM-KL25Z).

INTRODUCTION
    • The FRDM-KL25Z is an ultra-low-cost development platform for Kinetis L Series KL1x (KL14/15) and KL2x (KL24/25) MCUs built on ARM® Cortex™-M0+ processor. 
    • The FRDM-KL25Z has been designed by NXP in collaboration with mbed for prototyping all sorts of devices, especially those requiring the size and price point offered by Cortex-M0+ and the power of USB Host and Device.
    • The FRDM-KL25Z is supported by a range of NXP and third-party development software.
    • It is packaged as a development board with connectors to break out to stripboard and breadboard and includes a built-in USB FLASH programmer.

             FEATURES
    • NXP KL25Z Kinetis KL2x MCU (MKL25Z128VLK4)
      • High-performance ARM® Cortex™-M0+ Core
      • 48MHz, 16KB RAM, 128KB FLASH
      • USB (Host/Device)
      • SPI (2)
      • I2C (2)
      • UART (3)
      • PWM (TPM)
      • ADC (16 bit)
      • DAC (1x 12bit)
      • Touch Sensor
      • GPIO (66)
               So now we are familiar with the FRDM-KL25Z let’s use it.

   Components Required:
    • FRDM-KL25Z board
    • Data Cable (USB Mini-B)
    • Capacitive touch “slider”(On Board)



Code:

#include "mbed.h"
#include "tsi_sensor.h"

/* This defines will be replaced by Pin Names soon */
#if defined (TARGET_KL25Z) || defined (TARGET_KL46Z)
  #define ELEC0 9
  #define ELEC1 10
#elif defined (TARGET_KL05Z)
  #define ELEC0 9
  #define ELEC1 8
#else
  #error TARGET NOT DEFINED
#endif

int main(void) {
    PwmOut led(LED_GREEN);
    TSIAnalogSlider tsi(ELEC0, ELEC1, 40);
    
    while (true) {
        led = 1.0 - tsi.readPercentage();
        wait(0.1);
    }
}




After dumping the code the output is shown in the video below:-

Interfacing of Push Button With ATmega16

In this tutorial, we will learn how to interface a switch(push button) with ATMEGA16 using AVR studio. In the previous video, we learnt how to interface LEDs with ATMEGA16 using AVR studio. The push-button is a component that connects two points in a circuit when you press it. The example turns on an LED when you press the button. Here we have connected two push button to PORT C in  PC0 & PC1. And for LEDs connection please refer my previous blog. Components Required:- AVR Controller(Atmega16) LEDs Push Button Connecting Wires USBASP Programmer Dump the following code after connection  and select chip ATMEGA 16. #include<avr/io.h> #include<util/delay.h> void main()  {    DDRB=0b11111111;    int S1;    int S2;      while(1)    {     S1=PINC&0b00000001;     S2=PINC&0b00000010;     if(S1==0b00000001)     { ...

Servo Motor Interfacing with Arduino

In this tutorial, we will learn how to interface a servo motor using Arduino UNO. The motor inside the setup of a servo is attached by gears to the control wheel. When the motor rotates, the potentiometer’s resistance changes hence the control circuit can precisely regulate how much movement there is and in which direction. The motor’s speed is proportional to the difference between its actual position and desired position. When the shaft is near the desired position it turns slowly else fast. This is called proportional control. They are controlled by sending PWM (pulse width modulated) signals through the control wire. They are available in many sizes and are of three types Positional rotation  Continuous rotation  Linear The most common type is the positional rotational one. So now we are familiar with the motor let us interface it Components Required: Servo motor 1No Arduino UNO 1No Few connecting wires Breadboard Follow the video belo...
