Learn and Practice the Speaking of other Languages using Microphone

Now, learning and speaking the different spoken languages have become more easy and interesting with online tools or web applications. But, only reading alphabet of different languages can not make help you speak correct language that you are learning. Speaking the languages correctly also matters. And find the tool that can help you measure your progress of speaking the languages correctly.

Duolingo is the online web application tool that help you learn and speak languages like Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese English. It is totally free application available in Chrome Web store and iPhone app store. The most interesting it measures your progress and tells you how well your speaking that language. It adds features like Microphone, Speaker that helps you speak and listen the perfect pronunciation.

Steps to learn language:

1. Go to http://duolingo.com and sign-up with your Facebook account or with your email address.

2. Now, you will redirected to the page where you have to fill out your profile and Select the language from the dropdown menu which you want to learn.

3. Start the tour and you will be taken through different interactive steps to learn language with useful tips and hearing proper pronunciation.

4. It contains different level and you have to clear each level by taking a small test so that you can check out your progress report.

5. This application allows you to speak through microphone and in return, it will tell how well you are speaking so that you can enhance your speaking in that language. And whenever you complete a lesson, you can now see a handy list of the words you have learned on the lower part of the skill page. If you want to practice those words, just go to your 'Vocabulary' page and hit 'Practice'.

Duolingo has also added the activity stream for the users so that they can write posts on their stream in the language you are learning and allow the other users learning the same language can read your post.

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...
