    PICAXE powered by a wall wart

    I am working on a pretty simple project using an 08M to control a small 5.0vdc motor. The 08M turns two small relays on and off through a 2003 darlington. Everything works great using battery power. However, when I try to power it with a wall wart (12vdc@900mA through a 5v,1A 7805 regulator) the...

Controlled by a salvaged television infrared remote control, this PICAXE -08M brained next generation vibrobot stands ready to...

This practical, simple, and inexpensive project is a lot of fun to build and use. The "take it further" options I listed in the instructables should open...

Most of the PIC programs I have looked at are written strange languages I have never heard of like C...
