The electric fence charger circuit presented here is basically a high voltage pulse generator. The super high voltage is derived from a commonly used automobile ignition coil. An astable multivibrator is used to generate the required frequency to drive the ignition coil. Another astable is used to control the pulses supplied to the fence. Audio/Video […]

Simple Solar Tracker System – Mechanism and Working
The circuit and the mechanism I have explained in this article may be considered as the easiest and perfect dual axis solar tracker system. How the Dual Axis Solar Tracker Concept Works The device is able to track the daytime motion of the sun precisely and shift in the vertical axis accordingly. The device also […]
Mains AC Short Circuit Breaker/Protector – Electronic MCB Circuit
In this post I will try to explain the making of a simple 220 V, 120 V AC mains short circuit breaker using an SCR and a triac combination, (researched and designed by me). The circuit is an electronic version of the normal main circuit breaker MCB units that we use in our homes. Note: […]
5 Simple Water Level Controller Circuits
An automatic water level controller is a device which senses undesired low and high water levels in a tank, and switches a water pump ON or OFF accordingly to maintain an optimal water content in the tank. In this article I have explained 5 simple automatic water level controller circuits which can be used for […]
10 LED Simple Roulette Wheel Circuit Diagram
A very simple 10 LED roulette wheel circuit is shown here. pressing the button starts the LEDs in a rotational motion (sequencing) at full swing initially, and gradually slows down, until it stops to a particular, randomly selected LED. The randomness of the selection depends upon the time for which the push remains switched ON […]
4 Simple Transformerless Power Supply Circuits Explained
In this post I have explained 4 easy to build, compact simple transformerless power supply circuits. All the circuits presented here are built using capacitive reactance theory for stepping down the input AC mains voltage. All the designs presented here work independently without any transformer, or no transformer. The Transformerless Power Supply Concept As the […]
