The July & August 2014 Jumbo edition of Elektor magazine is now available for download for GREEN and GOLD members at the Elektor.MAGAZINE website! As is Elektor summertime tradition, our July & August edition has twice the amount of content, totaling 130-odd pages of projects, designs and news!

Some of the highlights of this Project Generator Edition include our IO-Warrior Extension Board; a multifunctional board which offers a vast number of inputs and outputs, making it ideal for a variety of measurement and control applications via the PC.

For the musically inclined, there’s a Guitar Stage Tuner project that will guarantee that you’re always sounding your best.

We’ll also explain how to make a Spirit-Level Acoustic Aid, to help you with any Summer Home Improvement you might have, as well as an IR Tester with Solar Cell Power Supply so you can make use of all that sunshine!

Of course, there will be those of you who might want to spend some time indoors with the AC cranked up: don’t think we’ve forgotten about you! You’ll have the chance to create a Single Arcade Machine Emulator (SAME), a Rodent Friendly Mousetrap (with just a few lines of PIC code) and a remarkably accurate Dice Clock that is built from 1980s CD4000 IC’s with a very innovative display!

This small sample isn’t even half of the amazing and challenging projects contained within our 2014 Project Generator Summer Edition of Elektor magazine. As an Elektor GREEN or GOLD member, you can download your digital copy from the Elektor.Magazine website.
