28 Build a PIC-Based Remote Temperature Sensor
You can never have too many remote sensors, right?This circuit lets you set
up a homemade weather station to monitor the most popular of all parameters:
temperature.
■ By Ryan Clarke
34 The (Nearly] Universal Process Monitor
While the circuit described here is specifically for showing system parameters
in an electric truck conversion, you can utilize it as a process monitor and
display for analog and pulsed signals in a variety of applications.
■ By Daniel Gravatt
38 All About Clocks for PICs
Taking the time to understand how clock options really work in a microcontroller
will make implementing them that much easier.
■ By Thomas Henry
44 MakerPlot—The DIY Software Kit Part 4
Learn how to plot both analog and digital data from the Arduino Uno, then see
how to log that data and play it back for greater analysis.
■ By John Gavlik and Martin Hebel

08 TechKnowledgey2014
Events, Advances, and News
Read about a transistor that learns, secure wireless access, the
Smellophone, plus some other cool stuff.
12 The Spin Zone
Adventures in Propeller Programming
Shifty Business.
Sometimes the simple thed-and-true solutions are overlooked because of
the ever-increasing sophistication of microcontrollers. Case in point: shift
registers.
20 Q&A
Reader Questions Answered Here
Questions on LED drivers, remote control, and video and power over cable
are answered.

The Arduino Classroom.
Even though the Internet is flowing with tutorials on how to use the Arduino
microcontroller, sometimes it's nice to have everything put together into an
easy-to-follow introductory course. That's what we've done here.
62 Near Space
Approaching the Final Frontier
A New Airframe Design for Near Spacecraft — Part 2.
Building a new airframe is only part of creating a near spacecraft. There are
things like post burst chaos that have to be considered.
67 The Design Cycle
Advanced Techniques for Design Engineers
Utilizing Embedded Web Development.
Remember drilling that slightly off-center toggle switch mounting hole for your
project's front panel then have it be a bit too large? Those days are long gone.
Trade in that drill and dull set of metal bits for some silicon versions that
machine a perfect virtual front panel every time.
