Connected Weight Scale Demonstration Board Using PIC16F178X MCU Family with Intelligent Analog and the RN42 Bluetooth Module

Descripción

• Digital Weight Scales, have been used for quite a while in homes, businesses and medical facilities. With the increase in demand for health-related information, connected weight scales can now send data to SmartPhones, tablets and the Cloud where it can be utilized by medical providers and other care givers. Connected weight scales are being used with other home-based consumer and medical devices to improve the health and general well-being of many people. Connected Weight Scale Demonstration Board shows the implementation of a Bluetooth-connected weight scale using PIC16F1783 MCU and the RN42 Bluetooth module. The PIC16F1783 MCU is an eXtreme Low Power (XLP), cost-effective 8-bit microcontroller with an integrated capacitive touch sensing module, 12-bit ADC and operational amplifiers. Connectivity is demonstrated on this board by the use of fully qualified RN42 Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR module
