How to make a Transistor Latch Circuit
In this post I have explained how to make a simple transistor latch circuit using just two BJTs and a few resistors. Introduction A transistor latch is a circuit which latches ON with a permanent high output in response to a momentary input high signal, and continues to stay in this position as long as […]
Remote Control Circuit Using FM Radio
In this post I have explained how to build a simple FM remote control circuit for toggling small AC loads such as lamps, fans etc using an ordinary FM transmitter circuit and a modified FM radio circuit. This remote control system enables the user to get an ON/OFF control on any desired appliance, by simply […]
SCR/Triac Controlled Automatic Voltage Stabilizer Circuit
In this article I have explained a relatively simple triac controlled automatic mains voltage stabilizer circuit, which uses logic ICs and a few triacs for controlling the mains voltage levels. Why Solid State Being solid state in design, the voltage switching transitions are very smooth with minimum wear and tear, resulting in efficient voltage stabilization. […]
Make this Simple Buzzer Circuit with Transistor and Piezo
In this article I have explained how to make a very simple circuit for buzzer using piezo electric transducer, two resistors, a small coil and a BC547 transistor. A buzzer is a high frequency oscillator circuit used for generating a buzzing sound through a transducer or speaker output. Simple Buzzer using a Single Transistor Just […]
