The project illustrates an old Arduino USB board being hacked by finding the right pins and stringing a capacitor between the serial connector and the reset line.
The project describes the construction of a contact-less tachometer by using a 8051 microcontroller and a proximity sensor to be used in counting the revolutions per minute of a rotating shaft.
The project creates a DC motor driver board that will control 2 small DC motors while the PSM driver board will control 3 channels of PWM at up to 5A each.
