Here are two recent projects of mine.
The first one is using the 1721C touchscreen to replace the control panel on an industrial cable tugger, used to install electrical cable in underground conduits. It regulates the pull by monitoring a load cell and measures the length with an encoder and measuring wheel.
The second is a new general purpose control board I designed to use the CB320 and other 24-pin microcontrollers.
It provides 4 opto-isolated inputs, 4 (1 amp) relay outputs, plus access to all other chip pins for use of ADC, PWM, etc. Shown installed in a web-based data display for a remote environmental monitoring system.
Cheers,
