Solar Powered PIC Based LCD Game

at 5:51 am. Filed under DIY Hacks, Electronic Hacks

Pyrofer has added a solar panel to his tiny PIC based game system that uses a cell phone LCD screen for the display. Now the game can be played for hours. :)

“I picked up a fairly large one for $40 hk and connected it up to my pic+3310lcd project. Bam, up it comes. Im going to put in a bit of power regulation and a cap to smooth things out, but the solar panel easily generates enough power for the large PIC 18LF2520 and the Nokia 3310 LCD.”

    This is not cool, no fun after 8o clock. Maybe it should be improved to have a wind turbine, or a hydroelectric station. lol
