The “Chance PI” metal detector uses the 1602 LCD display. We will connect the display to the microcontroller on the board via a 4-bit parallel interface. I will reproduce part of the scheme with the connection of the display. You can use a cable from the HDD drive as the wires for connecting the display, its pin header just went …

The metal detector is built on an ATmega8 microcontroller , paired with an MCP3201 AD converter . Judging by the reviews on the Internet, this chip is a deficit for many, and it is recommended to start assembling the device after its acquisition the necessary componnets. In order to collect this metal detectors , we need the following components: ICs, Diodes, Transistors NE5534 – 1 pc …

After a long search on the Internet, I stopped at Metal Detector Chance PI. Since it was made by the same author clone (Clone PI-W and Clone PI-AVR) and is a kind of continuation of a series of devices Clone, the site of the author of Chance . Metal detector Chance PI is an impulse that has metal discrimination, whose …
