Feature and Verdict of a low budget Android Smartphone LG Lucid 2

LG has launched the all new Lucid 2 from Verizon, a budget smartphone compared to other like HTC One, S4, iPhone 5, Xperia Z. It has been reviewed a handy and full featured Android smartphone for the first-time buyers who are going to buy big one among Android smartphone war. It will come with free two year contract having wireless capability (but only if you buy a separate charging pad) and made some changes compared to previous version Lucid.
Specification of LG Lucid 2:
Design and Body:- This lightweight phone has a black design with plastic back and silver-colored accents on its edges. But, comparing to HTC One body and looks, it lags behind and not much luxurious. It comes with 4.3 inch AH-IPS display has a 960x540-pixel resolution and measures 4.82 inches tall, 2.51 inches wide, and 0.39 inch thick.

Performance and battery:- It is developed around 1.7-GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus processor with the combination of 1GB RAM. Thus, providing good performance smartphones available in this budget of around 25,000 to 30,000 rupees (estimated prices). It comes with on-board 8GB memory and can expanded to 64GB using microSD or microSDHC. But does not integrated with NFC technology which is becoming popular in handheld devices. LG has upgraded the battery life to 2460mAh compared to Lucid having 1700mAh.

Camera and Resolution:- It has been launched with 5 MP camera with variety of options like Auto focus, Flash and 1080p video recording and having resolution of 540x960. Two other features added by LG is that Time catch shot mode that lets users choose and save the best shot from before the shutter was pressed, and a voice command feature called Cheese Shot. With the features like beauty shot that lets you adjust the brightness and blurriness of an image, it has been reviewed the good quality picture taking smartphone and satisfy the buyer.

Features:- It is launched with Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean OS and loaded with apps similar to Optimus 3.0 and many Verizon mobile apps has been added like Verizon tone and media store, VZ security and My Verizon Mobile. It is also loaded with Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n. The review has shown that it has good call quality but, according to the cnet reviews it has has poor audio quality, its video camera picks up a low buzzing sound when recording.
Verdict:
It is a good budget phone available in this segment based on latest Android OS. It has good features and better performance than smartphones in competition. It will pretty good for new buyers who are looking for handy and budget phone for their pocket.

Buzzer interface with 8051 microcontroller

Buzzer  is a electronic device that converts the electronic signal into buzzing noise, that is applied to it. It can be used as electronic bell or as quiz buzzer in many applications around us. Here, i world like to discuss the interfacing of a small buzzer with 8051 microcontroller and how different projects can be constructed. Buzzer Interfacing: This project shows the interface with AT89S52 microcontroller to a buzzer. When a push button is pressed, the buzzer will get ON and OFF ( number of times set in the code ) and then stops. Circuit Diagram: - The port P1 of the microcontroller is connected to buzzer. This type of connection is possible, if the current requirements of the buzzer is not more than 20mA. The output is in current source mode so that buzzer will turn ON when the output of the port is logic LOW. Switch is connected to port P3 which remains at logic HIGH by pull up resistor.  Code: #include "REG52.h" #define buz P1 sbit SW=P3^0; long i...

Comparison Chart Between 8051, 8052, 8031and 8751

8051 is a popular 8-bit microcontroller and has been used in many applications since Intel introduced it. Many 8051 architecture are produced by Triscend, Intel, Atmel, Philips, Infineon (Siemens), ISSI, and Max Corp. Today, 8051 microcontrollers may not be popular but, the 8051 architecture is still popular and employed in thousands of embedded applications. This 8-bit architecture has been different segments such as 8052, 8051, 8751 and 8031 . 8052 is the super-set of 8051 and 8031 is the memory-less microcontroller hence, it has interfaced with external ROM. Whereas, 8751 chip has only 4Kbytes of on chip UV-EPROM. Everyone knows about the general 40-pin microcontroller i.e. 8051 introduced by Intel in 1980s and consists of serial communication pins, Timer, Interrupts, RAM, ROM. It has 4 ports and each port has 8 pins, total 32 pins and other 8 pins for other purposes. 8052 is the super-set of 8051 that consists of 8K bytes of internal RAM (4K in 8051), 256 by...

Different ways to generate delays in 8051

The delay length in 8051 microcontroller depends on three factors: The crystal frequency the number of clock per machine the C compiler. The original 8051 used 1/12 of the crystal oscillator frequency as one machine cycle. In other words, each machine cycle is equal to 12 clocks period of the crystal frequency connected to X1-X2 pins of 8051. To speed up the 8051, many recent versions of the 8051 have reduced the number of clocks per machine cycle from 12 to four, or even one. The frequency for the timer is always 1/12th the frequency of the crystal attached to the 8051, regardless of the 8051 version. In other words, AT89C51, DS5000, and DS89C4x0 the duration of the time to execute an instruction varies, but they all use 1/12th of the crystal's oscillator frequency for the clock source. 8051 has two different ways to generate time delay using C programming, regardless of 8051 version. The first method is simply using Loop   program function in which Delay() funct...
