  • The CAN Bus Companion - Elektor

    Elektor Publishing The CAN Bus Companion

    This book details the use of the Arduino Uno and the Raspberry Pi 4 in practical CAN bus based projects. Using either the Arduino Uno or the Raspberry Pi with off-the-shelf CAN bus interface modules considerably ease developing, debugging, and testing CAN bus based projects. This book is written for students, practicing engineers, enthusiasts, and for everyone else wanting to learn more about the CAN bus and its applications. The book assumes that the reader has some knowledge of basic electronics. Knowledge of the C and Python programming languages and programming the Arduino Uno using its IDE and Raspberry Pi will be useful, especially if the reader intends to develop microcontroller-based projects using the CAN bus. The book should be a useful source of reference material for anyone interested in finding answers to questions such as: What bus systems are available for the automotive industry? What are the principles of the CAN bus? How can I create a physical CAN bus? What types of frames (or data packets) are available in a CAN bus system? How can errors be detected in a CAN bus system and how dependable is a CAN bus system? What types of CAN bus controllers exist? How do I use the MCP2515 CAN bus controller? How do I create 2-node Arduino Uno-based CAN bus projects? How do I create 3-node Arduino Uno-based CAN bus projects? How do I set the acceptance masks and acceptance filters? How do I analyze data on the CAN bus? How do I create 2-node Raspberry Pi-based CAN bus projects? How do I create 3-node Raspberry Pi-based CAN bus projects?

  • PID - based Practical Digital Control with Raspberry Pi and Arduino Uno - Elektor

    Elektor Publishing PID-based Practical Digital Control with Raspberry Pi and Arduino Uno

    The Arduino Uno is an open-source microcontroller development system encompassing hardware, an Integrated Development Environment (IDE), and a vast number of libraries. It is supported by an enormous community of programmers, electronic engineers, enthusiasts, and academics. The libraries in particular really smooth Arduino programming and reduce programming time. What’s more, the libraries greatly facilitate testing your programs since most come fully tested and working. The Raspberry Pi 4 can be used in many applications such as audio and video media devices. It also works in industrial controllers, robotics, games, and in many domestic and commercial applications. The Raspberry Pi 4 also offers Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capability which makes it great for remote and Internet-based control and monitoring applications. This book is about using both the Raspberry Pi 4 and the Arduino Uno in PID-based automatic control applications. The book starts with basic theory of the control systems and feedback control. Working and tested projects are given for controlling real-life systems using PID controllers. The open-loop step time response, tuning the PID parameters, and the closed-loop time response of the developed systems are discussed together with the block diagrams, circuit diagrams, PID controller algorithms, and the full program listings for both the Raspberry Pi and the Arduino Uno. The projects given in the book aim to teach the theory and applications of PID controllers and can be modified easily as desired for other applications. The projects given for the Raspberry Pi 4 should work with all other models of Raspberry Pi family. The book covers the following topics: Open-loop and closed-loop control systems Analog and digital sensors Transfer functions and continuous-time systems First-order and second-order system time responses Discrete-time digital systems Continuous-time PID controllers Discrete-time PID controllers ON-OFF temperature control with Raspberry Pi and Arduino Uno PID-based temperature control with Raspberry Pi and Arduino Uno PID-based DC motor control with Raspberry Pi and Arduino Uno PID-based water level control with Raspberry Pi and Arduino Uno PID-based LED-LDR brightness control with Raspberry Pi and Arduino Uno

  • Develop your own Bluetooth Low Energy Applications - Elektor

    Elektor Publishing Develop your own Bluetooth Low Energy Applications

    For Raspberry Pi, ESP32 and nRF52 with Python, Arduino and Zephyr Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) radio chips are ubiquitous from Raspberry Pi to light bulbs. BLE is an elaborate technology with a comprehensive specification, but the basics are quite accessible. A progressive and systematic approach will lead you far in mastering this wireless communication technique, which is essential for working in low power scenarios. In this book, you’ll learn how to: Discover BLE devices in the neighborhood by listening to their advertisements. Create your own BLE devices advertising data. Connect to BLE devices such as heart rate monitors and proximity reporters. Create secure connections to BLE devices with encryption and authentication. Understand BLE service and profile specifications and implement them. Reverse engineer a BLE device with a proprietary implementation and control it with your own software. Make your BLE devices use as little power as possible. This book shows you the ropes of BLE programming with Python and the Bleak library on a Raspberry Pi or PC, with C++ and NimBLE-Arduino on Espressif’s ESP32 development boards, and with C on one of the development boards supported by the Zephyr real-time operating system, such as Nordic Semiconductor's nRF52 boards. Starting with a very little amount of theory, you’ll develop code right from the beginning. After you’ve completed this book, you’ll know enough to create your own BLE applications.

  • Basic Electronics for Beginners - Elektor

    Elektor Publishing Basic Electronics for Beginners

    Analogue Electronics and Microcontrollers Projects Hobbyist electronics can be a fun way to learn new skills that can be helpful to your career. Those who understand the basics of electronics can design their own circuits and projects. However, before you run, you need to learn to walk. It all starts with analogue electronics. You should be familiar with the simple components and circuits and understand their basic behaviors and the issues you may encounter. The best way to do this is through real experiments. Theory alone is not enough. This book offers a large number of practical entry-level circuits, with which everyone can gain the basic experience. Through the widespread introduction of microcontrollers, a new chapter in electronics has begun. Microcontrollers are now performing more and more tasks that were originally solved using discrete components and conventional ICs. Starting out has become easier and easier thanks to platforms including Bascom, Arduino, micro:bit. The book introduces numerous manageable microcontroller applications. It’s now a case of less soldering and more programming.

  • Elektronica echt niet moeilijk (deel 1, 2 en 3) - Elektor

    Elektor Publishing Elektronica echt niet moeilijk (deel 1, 2 en 3)

    Elektronica moeilijk? De titel van dit boek geeft het antwoord! In deze 3-in-1-band wordt de elektronica vanuit de praktijk benaderd. Dat wil zeggen veel praktijk in de vorm van experimenten en een minimum aan theorie. Zo raakt u stap voor stap vertrouwd met de behandelde onderwerpen. Daarbij ontstaan gaandeweg ook een flink aantal praktisch bruikbare schakelingen. Het gaat bij de elektronicahobby tenslotte om het bouwen of uitdenken van allerlei praktische of leuke schakelingen. Aan het eind van elk deel is een aanhangsel opgenomen met aanvullende informatie en de gegevens van een groot aantal elektronische componenten, zodat na dit boek ook eigen ideeën en experimenten kunnen worden aangepakt. In deze 3-in-1-band zijn de eerste drie delen uit de serie “Elektronica echt niet moeilijk” samengevoegd: Deel 1: experimenten met gelijkstroom Deel 2: experimenten met wisselstroom Deel 3: experimenten met digitale techniek
