Any high-performance engine needs to be cared for and properly monitored. Sometimes, factory gauges can be inaccurate or simply not specific enough for a modified car, so take a look at these ...

This article describes the simple setup and explains the code to drive analog meters using PWM outputs from an Arduino and the LCD Smartie program. They also replace the meter face to show the proper ...

The project illustrates the driving of analog meters using PWM outputs from Arduino as well as the LCD Smartie program. A small current is typically required by meters to operate wherein a typical ...

Usuallyyour meter will be bought or adapted for a specific measurement and youwill not have to make special efforts to get it to read what you want.Or your schematic will specify the sensitivity of ...

You can get analog meters that are blank, in the sense that they need a series resistor to display voltage and amperage is usually done with a very low resistance resistor, typically half an ohm. You ...

Like a rolling stone back in 1965, when Bob Dylan first sang about an uppity young lass that rode on a chrome horse with her diplomat, the instrument panel on the recently introduced 1965 Chevelle was ...

Editor's note: If you're like us and can't bear to part with that crusty old (but magnificent) analog meter, David Ashton offers everything you want to know about these gems in this three-part series: ...

Power plants use indicators to monitor process parameters such as pressure, flow, temperature, voltage, current, and vibration. Unless a facility is relatively new, it likely has analog panel meters; ...
