Hello I am designing a light feedback system where in bright light the output light is off and in dark light the output light is on however the user will be able to set the brightness at any point so for example when its dark and the user has set the intensity the same as a normal dimmer...

Hi I an planning on making a light monitoring circuit that then changes the light levels to a pre specified level. I will create a prototype board first at 12V then move up to a 240V final board. I am using a 28X2 picaxe Chip Could you please check to see if i have missed anything on my...

Hi What is the maximum current that a picaxe chip can take im currently using a 08m but i will be using a 14 later on for the same thing. Im using coputer power supply to run the board which is 22 amps so if this is too much how can i limit the current but not the voltage. Also im am trying...

Hi I have shown the circuit i am using previously so if you want to see that then I can add the picture! I am trying to run a computer fan/pump on PWM from a picaxe 08m ( for the moment I might need to expand) and im having problems figuring out the code and why the picaxe programming editor...

Hi Im at school so remember i can't access thing like com port set up due to restrictions on all accounts. I am trying to download a program to the 20M Picaxe chip and im using the serial port because the stupid school hasen't installed the driver for the USB devise. It isn't downloading so i...

Hi I am trying to create a pump controller that will increase in speed when a temperature sensor increases in temperature! I want to do it using the PWM output. I have the David Lincon customizing and programing PICAXE controller book and im going from the motor control circuit in it on page...

Hi i want to make a vu meter or i think its called a spectrum analyzer for my computer to work exactly how this works: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pg9fMiVeW0 and i think that it would be best to use picaxe so could someone tell me how plz. thanks SKL BOI

i have brought the picaxe microcontroller book by David Lincon and for my solenoid it tells me to add a NPN Transistor but i do not know what value or type so can some one help me. Thanks

what is the output and voltage on an 18a chip with 5v goin in. I am planning on putting a 12v solenoid on it n i need to know how many volts it gives out so that i can up it for the solenoid. If you need any more info please say. thanks.

HI i Have a proglem with my program that i wrote for my GCSE Coursework. i click the run button and it comes up with an error but i cannot see anything wrong with the line can some one tell me how to fix it so that it is correct. it has a problem with the start of every line first line ie if...
