How to Understand IC 4017 Pinouts
The IC 4017 can be considered as one of the most useful and versatile chip having numerous electronic circuit applications. About IC 4017 Technically it is called the Johnsons 10 stage decade counter divider. The name suggest two things, it’s something to do with number 10 and counting/dividing. The number 10 is connected with the […]
How to Calculate Transformerless Power Supply Circuits
In this article I have explained how to calculate resistor and capacitor values in transformerless power supply circuits using simple formulas like ohms law. Analyzing a Capactive Power Supply Before I have explained the formula for calculating and optimizing resistor and capacitor values in a transformerless power supply, it would be important to first summarize […]
Single Transistor LED Flasher Circuit
It is possibly the smallest LED flasher to date, which is able to flash an LED ON/OFF infinitely using a single transistor, a resistor, and a capacitor. Can you imagine making a great looking LED flasher or blinker with just a single transistor and a couple of other passive parts? That’s exactly what I have […]
Simple LED Tubelight Circuit
An LED tube-light is lighting device built using high efficiency LEDs for illuminating a premise where it is installed, through the available AC mains supply. In this post I have explained the complete construction details of a simple LED light tube light circuit using 20 mA, 5 mm high bright white LEDs. The circuit can […]
How to Connect Two or More Transistors in Parallel
Connecting transistors in parallel is a process in which the identical pinouts of two or more transistors are connected together in a circuit in order to multiply the power handling capacity of the combined parallel transistor set. In this post I have explained how to safely connect multiple transistors in parallel, these can be BJTs […]
