Digital IR Sensor Interfacing with ATmega16 and LED Display-Analog Output

3270

The digital IR sensor that we are going to interface with ATmega16 microcontroller is a dual output sensor i.e. the sensor gives both analog and digital output signal.

In this project, we will learn How to interface the analog output of the digital IR sensor with AVR ATmega16 microcontroller. Here, we will read the analog output of the digital IR sensor and we will display that value of the sensor in a LED array. But the microcontroller can not read analog signal. So, the microcontroller will convert the analog output of the digital IR sensor to digital value through its analog to digital converter and it will display that value in the 1X8 LED array. Now, move your hand or any other material to and fro infront of the sensor and see the changes in the 1X8 LED array.
