This little thing is simple and fun, and can be used as a course design for beginners of microcontrollers.

Place your index finger gently on the sensor and you will see the LED indicator flashing with your heartbeat. After 15 seconds, your current heart rate will be displayed on the digital tube.

The core part is on the sensor, which uses a set of infrared tubes.

The arteries at the fingertips of the human body are relatively developed. When the arteries contract and relax periodically with the heart, the blood volume in the blood vessels will also change.

At this time, the infrared receiving probe can collect the corresponding light pulse signal, which is sent to the microcontroller after denoising and amplification, and then processed to obtain the heart rate data.

Analysis on the method of realizing PWM output function in MCS-51 series microcontroller
The MCS-51 series of microcontrollers does not have a PWM output function, which can be realized by using a timer and software. It is very practical for occasions where the accuracy is not high. It uses high-speed optical isolation 6N137 to output and inverts the PWM signal. 1. Working principle 2. PWM output 1. Fix

Clock and temperature display MCU program using 74hc164+74ls145 digital tube
The following is a physical picture: The circuit diagram is very simple so I won't draw it. The digital tube is driven by 74hc164 serial-to-parallel chip + 74ls145. One chip is responsible for segment selection and the other is responsible for bit selection. Please refer to the pin definition at the top of th

Recommended books on microcontroller technology
I seldom buy books, but I once bought a book on 51 single-chip microcomputers. I got started with AVR entirely through the introductory examples on the OURAVR website and the information on the forum. Later, I also bought Teacher Xinyi's "AVR Microcontroller GCC Programming", which is also a very good book. I didn't

How to use microcontroller PWM output to drive loads more efficiently
Most microcontrollers have at least one pulse width modulation (PWM) peripheral that generates multiple waveforms in the form of square waves. These PWM outputs can be used to drive synchronous loads such as stepper motors in mechanical systems and power MOSFETs in power converters. For these loads, it is very impor
