Serial Port Manipulation in Java

What we have today? Serial Port Manipulation in Java. Java seems to be popular for its high level user applications and Web application. But most of us, hobbyists use C for almost all our jobs to deal with hardwares.    What do Java have for us. To be honest, Java is not good enough for ES programming or Driver development, because it is not meant to be. We have been struggling for getting precise delay for running a Servo motor by pulsing DTS and RTS. ( have a look at Serial Port Manipulation in C) Unfortunately the PC doesn't have the capability to provide precision.    We then tried to use Tx and Rx terminals....

AVR guide for Hobbyists

INTRO First things first,  AVR ==> Advanced Virtual RISC   RISC ==> Reduced Instruction Set Architecture As the name suggests, the instructions are simple and all are executed in single Instruction cycle.  Why should Hobbyists choose AVR? · Reduced complexity Easy to use the features available. Consider the timers, there are a number of modes of operation but they are pretty simple to use.  · Efficient architecture Highly efficient core with a typical Instruction Cycle of 1MIPS     · High flash memory (program memory) With high program memory, more lines...

Guides : Basics Of Programming

     I had an intention to write a book just after completing my higher secondary to help students, and make them learn thing easily. But at that time, with very little experience in writing articles, how could I write a book. Also I didn't have expertise in any field. But the idea writing a book for C-programming strike long ago in the beginning of 2010. But I came to know that there are much better books available in internet, why should I write one. DOWNLOAD THE GUIDE HERE     After completing the fourth semester, I realized that pupil still do not have enough experience with C-programming. I started writing...
